Jared Kushner was diagnosed and treated for thyroid cancer while working in the White House.

Kushner wrote about his cancer scare - which never leaked to the press - in his forthcoming memoir, Breaking History: A White House Memoir.

The New York Times reported on an excerpt of the book on Monday.

In it, Kushner recalled a conversation he had with White House physician Sean Conley on an October 2019 trip to Texas.

'On the morning that I traveled to Texas to attend the opening of a Louis Vuitton factory, White House physician Sean Conley pulled me into the medical cabin on Air Force One,' Kushner wrote. '"Your test results came back from Walter Reed," he said. "It looks like you have cancer. We need to schedule a surgery right away."'

Kushner told Conley to hold off - and come to his office the next day.

'Please don’t tell anyone - especially my wife or my father-in-law,' he said, referencing Ivanka Trump and then President Donald Trump.

GOOD FOR YOU!
Some years ago, a co-worker complained of a sore throat, and eventually found out that he had medullary thyroid cancer. The tumor was entwined around his thyroid and other structures in his neck. After surgeries, chemo and radiation, it claimed him. And he was a big, strapping fellow who used to curl railroad ties.
It took him down like he was a 98lb. weakling.
Everyone liked Kevin. He was a great guy. Don’t ever let up on your surveillance.

I agree. There are 2 types of thyroid cancer that are aggressive. The others are very curable. Jared will do fine.

I had my servant hold my purchases.
