Gary Sinise Mourns Death of 33-Year-Old Son from Rare Cancer
Mac Sinise, the son of actor Gary Sinise, has passed away at the age of 33 after a battle with a rare form of spine cancer known as chordoma. Diagnosed in 2018, Mac underwent multiple surgeries over the following years, which eventually led to paralysis from the chest down. Despite his condition, he continued to engage in music, learning to play the harmonica and contributing to the creation of an album titled "Resurrection & Revival." The album, which was released a week before his passing, is now serving as a legacy to his musical talents and determination.
In the wake of his son's death, Gary Sinise expressed deep sorrow, sharing how his family is coping with the loss and finding solace in the knowledge that Mac's struggles are over. The Gary Sinise Foundation, known for its support of wounded veterans, will receive proceeds from Mac's album. The Sinise family had faced significant health challenges in recent years, with Gary's wife, Moira Harris, battling and going into remission from stage 3 breast cancer shortly before Mac was diagnosed with chordoma.
The Hollywood community has reached out to offer condolences and support to the Sinise family during this difficult time. Notable figures like Kelly Carlson and Alyssa Milano have extended their sympathies, reflecting the impact of Mac's passing not only on his family but on those who knew him and his work. Despite the progression of his cancer, Mac remained active with his father's foundation and continued to pursue his passion for music until his final days.
