His son, Robin-John Gibb, told ITV News today that "the [doctors] gave him an under 10 percent survival chance and he has beaten the odds...he really is something else."
Gibb's doctors released a statement yesterday saying they are "confounded" by his "indomitable fighting spirit and remarkable physical endurance."
