The producer and former Chic guitarist wrote a blog post saying he is winning in his battle against fight against the disease - which he was diagnosed with last October - but warns he faces a long road to recovery. Nile - who has undergone surgery for the "aggressive" disease - wrote: "It was rainy and warm as I went to see my doctors for the second straight day. Though I`m now Cancer Free, my post operative symptoms require a huge amount of recuperative therapy." Nile, 58, has chosen not to disclose what form of cancer he has been suffering from. The musician - who has produced a string of hits including `Remember the Time` by Michael Jackson, `We Are Family` by Sister Sledge and `Material Girl` by Madonna - said when he was initially diagnosed in October last year, comparing it to "jaws savagely eating me from the inside out". Many people have wished Nile a speedy recovery, including David Bowie. After hearing of his friend`s diagnosis he sent a message saying "All our love and support goes out to you, Nile, you are the greatest. David." Nile produced two of David`s albums, `Fame` in 1983 and `Black Tie White Noise` in 1993.
