Introduction
Sir Tom Jones — the beloved voice of the valleys and music legend — has been facing a sudden, critical medical diagnosis delivered just 48 hours ago at a specialist facility in London.
In a trembling dawn statement, his son Mark Woodward wrote: “My father is fighting with everything he has. We’re begging the world to pray with us.”
Sir Tom collapsed during a private rehearsal last week. Scans revealed the devastating truth, leaving doctors stunned and the family shattered.
Within minutes, #PrayForTomJones exploded worldwide, soaring past billions of impressions. The music world froze. Wales mourned. Fans across the globe lit candles and held vigils.
Mark has not left his bedside — holding his hand, whispering prayers, refusing to let go.
Tonight, the devoted son’s only plea echoes across the nation: “God… please don’t take my father.”
Wales isn’t sleeping. The world is pleading. We’re all begging heaven with you, Mark.
