Tom coming back at some point had been rumoured long before Mark's cancer. Even Mark himself had addressed three years or so ago and said he'd be open to bringing Tom back in at some point.
That was a nice letter, though. Hopefully Matt will respond with some clarity how this all went down. Eventually it'd be cool if they brought him on stage at a show to sing a couple of songs.

Hi Matt –
Tom DeLonge here. I wanted to take a minute and say thank you for all that you have done to keep the band alive and thriving in my absence. I think you are enormously talented (I still love to listen to your band to this day). You have always been so kind to me, not only in the press, but also to others. I really noticed. Emotions between the three of us in Blink have always been complicated, but Mark’s cancer really put things in perspective. But to be honest, the band would not even be here today if it were not for your ability to jump in and save the day. So from my heart to yours, thank you for being a member of our band.”
