While Tim McGraw was touring this summer with Kenny Chesney as part of the “Brothers Of The Sun Tour” he was also changing lives across the country.  This time he wasn’t changing lives with his music though.  With the help of the “Homes on The Homefront” program as well as Chase Bank, Tim McGraw was able to give US Veterans mortgage free homes!

We are glad to hear that Wade Hayes is now cancer-free after surgery and months of chemo followed the heartbreaking news that the 42 year-old was diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer, which had also spread to his liver.   Hayes told Country Aircheck, “I had somewhere between a one-in-16 and one-in-eight chance of surviving.”  While he was fighting for his life, he had time to do a lot of writing, including a song titled, “Is It Already Time.”

“I’m so glad to be here and so thankful.  I want people to take the song to heart and remember that life is precious and can turn on a dime.”

Check out the video below to hear the song.
