Tony Snow's last FReeper post:

Former Bush press secretary Snow, sick, cancels Ohio speech (update at #103 from Tony Snow himself)

Tony Snow to La Enchiladita

I couldn’t agree more about Schwarzeneger’s attitude. Wonderful! Faith is everything, friends, through good or ill...

Thanks so much for your kind thoughts regarding my latest unpleasantness. As often happens, reports of my imminent demise are greatly exaggerated. I’ve been fighting a bowel obstruction for the last month, and won’t travel until we get it fixed. Hence, the speech cancellations.

We’ve embarked on a pretty aggressive course of treatment, and I’m on the mend. As for cancer, all the signs are good: Treatments are working, and genetic tests indicate that a new course of treatment has a good chance of real success.

So thanks, as always, for the thoughts and prayers — and continue sharing them with each other for others in need (like Jim Rob). I can’t tell you what a source of strength and reassurance you are.

Rest in peace for eternity in God's loving arms.

I recall thinking, when reading this last post of his, that he was close to death. I’m wish that had not been the case.
