#### 2025: Recurrence and Ongoing Treatment

Follow-up scans revealed cancer cells in his lymph nodes and prostate bed, marking a recurrence. Jordan began proton therapy (targeted radiation) and hormone therapy to combat the spread. Despite the setback, he became a vocal advocate, partnering with ZERO Prostate Cancer as a global ambassador to raise awareness, especially among Black men (noting 1 in 8 men face prostate cancer, with 70% of cases affecting African Americans). He planned a 2026 tour called "This Is How We Cure It," combining concerts with free screenings. Jordan also documented his fight in the upcoming film "Sustain."

Jordan posted an emotional message on his birthday:

"Today is my birthday. I love you. I'm doing something unthinkable. I need your help. I only have a few simple requests. Watch until the end and then: 1. Pray 2. Take action. Give if you are moved. 3. Share. Thank you. Link in bio."

(This post, 12 weeks old at the time, highlighted his vulnerability during his cancer battle, urging support via a link in bio.)
