“A Message of Support for the Springsteen Family During This Challenging Time.”

In the most recent movie, Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Bruce Springsteen’s spouse and an important member of the band, Patti Scialfa, talked about her personal struggle with multiple myeloma, a rare form of cancer that she was diagnosed with in 2018.

The film, which made its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, revealed that her illness has affected her ability to travel and perform.

In addition to establishing herself as a solo artist with multiple albums to her credit, Scialfa has been an integral member of the E Street Band since 1984. Scialfa has worked with a number of well-known artists over her distinguished musical career, including Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, Don Cherry, Narda Michael Walden, and David Johansen. She also creates movies and documentaries and composes music for them.

After getting married to Springsteen in 1991, they had three kids together: a daughter named Jessica and two sons, Evan and Samuel.

Speaking on the challenges she faced after receiving her diagnosis, she said, “Being back on stage felt so gratifying,” referring to her little stage time. “For me, touring has suddenly turned into a test. It affects my immune system, so I have to be careful about what I choose and where I go. Her situation demands caution, often restricting her to occasional appearances.

Scialfa makes an effort to maintain a cheerful attitude in spite of her present health issues. “I get to go to a show or two sometimes and get to sing a few songs on stage, which has been fun,” she said.

She revealed, despite being unable to attend the film’s debut, which will be available for streaming on Hulu and Disney+ starting on October 25, that it gives viewers a glimpse of “an aspect of our connection that is usually concealed.”

“It’s such a pleasure to be back onstage with Bruce,” she said. “The band gets a chance to celebrate every night of this tour.”
