Fox News commentator dead at 45 from brain cancer

Kelly Powers, a commentator on Fox News, died this week from brain cancer.

Powers was 45 years old.

An obituary posted online for Powers called her “a brave and beautiful soul who could make friends anywhere she went.”

The former surgeon and medical expert was a regular commentator on the network and a guest on programs like “Red Eye” and “Fox and Friends.”

In 2020, she was diagnosed with Glioblastoma, a severe form of brain cancer, according to a GoFundMe page set up for her family. After three brain surgeries, multiple rounds of radiation, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy, her cancer returned earlier this year.

Powers is survived by her husband, Steven Doll and her young son Bennett.

Shameless.

There's nothing shameful in contradicting a post which implies her death can only be natural and any who doubt must be suspect. Best that some not backhand scold others with 'it's not Covid vax!' whithout proof or worse, the false information that a person with cancer before the 'vaccine' cannot have experienced the documented impacts (e.g., Turbo cancer etc.) the 'vax' is known to have on those with cancer, in remission, or even after a prior, long-term full recovery.

Lost my niece 49, my cousins husband, 46 and a very close friend 53 to
glioblastoma. The last time I heard, only 2% live beyond five years with most dying within eighteen months from diagnosis.

I was briefly confused because she looks a lot like former liberal Kirsten Powers, who was also on Fox News for a long time.

If Big Med and Big Pharma aren't wondering about the implications with regard to the vaxxes, it's because they don't want to know.

Because middle-aged adults never died of brain cancer before the Vaxx?

I’m gonna put this out there but why are so many fox cohosts dying of cancer? All the way from Tony Snow to the present? Is there cancer causing asbestos in their offices? There’s a lot of cancer happening there at the Fox news building.

humm. at the risk of being thrown into the pit with the ‘usual suspects,’ i feel the need to point out two fallacies with your post for others who may be mislead by it:

1. ‘she had the cancer before COVID.’ that’s a false statement. sarscov2 the virus, which causes COVID **preceeds** 2020. it was released from wuhan lab in mid to late 2019.

2. giving you the benefit of the doubt, however, if you meant the jab (not COVID) came after 2020, that’s almost true. the jabs amazingly came out in late 2020 (released early to healthcare workers for emergency use due to warp speed). but that doesn’t exclude possible involvement of the jab in exacerbating her cancer.

reason: it is a *fact* that the jab accelerates certain cancers or brings them out of remission. hers is reported to be one of them. so the first question is whether or not she took the jab in late 2020 or thereafter in 2021 onwards, before that can be completely ruled out as a factor in her sad and very untimely death.

"I am convinced that it is caused by holding cell phone"

Unlikely once you understand the science. You need high energy, ionizing, radiation to cause cancer. It needs to carry enough energy rip electrons from their atoms. Gamma rays, x-rays, UV-C and some UV-B can do this. Below that there isn't enough energy carried to damage an atom: visible light, microwaves, and even less energy in the RF waves from a cell phone.

So maybe there is some mechanism we don't understand yet, but there is neither empirical evidence to support the effect, nor is there a scientific reason to think it would.

Know 4 people who had their cancer partially or completely cured with Ivermectin, but you are not allowed to say that on FR.

Had a boss who got this in his late 30s, he was lucky to survive, thanks to Mayo. It’s really a rough one.

COVID has been theorized as a cancer accelerator. Count me among the usual suspects.
