Tony Snow cancels speeches at EWU

SPOKANE -- Former White House Press Secretary Tony Snow has canceled a series of speaking engagements at Eastern Washington University because of illness.

Snow was supposed to make a series of appearances Tuesday at EWU. However, he was taken to the hospital to be treated for exhaustion, in consultation with his doctor, according to a source at the University.

The source said he checked into the hospital at 9:30 a.m.

Snow was diagnosed with colon cancer several years ago, and he left his position as press secretary for President Bush in September to deal with the disease. He has said the cancer is in remission.

This week, Snow was hired by CNN to be a conservative commentator. Before being named Press Secretary, he spent several years working at CNN rival Fox News.

On Monday, Tony Snow appeared on KXLY 920 AM's Newscope with Mike Fitzsimmons.

KXLY.com's Brian Clark, KXLY 4's Janet O and the Associated Press contributed to this story.

Lots of prayers for Tony!

Friend of mine is waiting for test results. They found a spot on his lung. He’s a survivor of Stage 4 colon cancer, but very worried right now. Maybe someone could add a prayer for him, too.

A super great person.

He is, and I think we all love him here. I pray it is just exhaustion and not a return of the cancer.
