Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will miss next weeks court sessions and work from home, but her recovery from early-stage lung cancer surgery remains "on track" and no further treatment is needed, the court announced Friday.
Justice Ginsburg will continue to work from home next week and will participate in the consideration and decision of the cases on the basis of the briefs and the transcripts of oral arguments. Her recovery from surgery is on track, Supreme Court public information officer Kathy Arberg said in a statement. Post-surgery evaluation indicates no evidence of remaining disease, and no further treatment is required, she said.

“may improve, if the cancers not metastasized or an aggressive type.”
They have reported that the tumors removed from her lung were metastatic, but not what type of cancer they were (lung, pancreatic, or other).
“pneumonia. Shes missing a lobe at her age.. yep, distinct possibility.”
Plus three broken ribs, and a high requirement for painkillers.
Saw a video clip of her transferring into a car from a wheelchair - hardly moving. She was helped up, took some time to turn 90 degrees and sit down - then they helped lift her feet in.
“they cant prolong this working from home stuff, much longer.”
After this week (for which Ginsburg already announced she will miss) the court will be out till 19 Feb.
Then she’s a goner, and it won’t be long, barring a miracle.
You don't cancel an event three weeks ahead of time if you're feeling great and you want to reassure everyone you're fully recovering!
