Former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Utah, is being treated for pancreatic cancer, his family said in a statement Monday. Reid underwent surgery Monday at Johns Hopkins Cancer Center to remove a tumor from his pancreas.
"His doctors caught the problem early during a routine screening and his surgeons are confident that the surgery was a success and that the prognosis for his recovery is good," the family statement said.
Reid is out of surgery and in good spirits, his family went on to say, and he will now undergo chemotherapy as the next step in his treatment.
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer, D-New York, has spoken to Reid's family and said "it seems @SenatorReid's operation went well."
Can you delete mine while you’re at it?
My son is in Hospital for the 5th time, Pancreatic attacks. Alcohol
I sent him away for 1 year and now another one yesterday.
I pray for:
1) For Mr. Reids confort, healing and recovery.
2) For Mr. Reid to gain a new, Godly perspective on life.
All in Jesus name.
This is the kind of response I want to be known for.
Let the lefties get all deranged about suffering people.
Damn shame, this.
A Charlie Sheen phrase comes to mind.
Is he going to write books too?
I, for one, am deeply saddened.
He’ll get to become a “God” in the afterlife, so he’s got that going for him.
