President Donald Trump on Sunday publicly confirmed that he was working to help "Dilbert" creator Scott Adams secure treatment for prostate cancer.
Adams publicly reached out to Trump seeking his aid the same day. Trump promptly responded by sharing Adams's plea and simply saying "on it."
Earlier in the day, Adams's plea for assistance went viral on X after he announced that he had been unable to schedule his treatment for a recently approved drug.
"On Monday, I will ask President Trump, via X, to help save my life. He offered to help me if I needed it. I need it. As many of you know, I have metastasized prostate cancer," he posted on X. "My healthcare provider, Kaiser of Northern California, has approved my application to receive a newly FDA-approved drug called Pluvicto."
"But they have dropped the ball in scheduling the brief IV to administer it and I can’t seem to fix that," he said.
"I am declining fast," he added. "I will ask President Trump if he can get Kaiser of Northern California to respond and schedule it for Monday. That will give me a fighting chance to stick around on this planet a little bit longer. It is not a cure, but it does give good results to many people."

If that is what it takes then that is what it takes. Life or Death. Choose life no matter what.
Poor Scotty. It’s got to be a frightening thing, when it seems your own body is in the process of shutting down.
Inside, he remains the same man we’ve known about for years.
I’ve had problems before, but nothing on this scale of severity.
The delays in the treatment and care provided by the medical staff do not appear consistent with the level of attention and urgency that Scott’s condition requires.
It further appears that such delays may have been influenced, at least in part, by media misrepresentations and contextual distortions of Scott’s prior statements, thereby potentially compromising the impartiality expected in his medical care.
I used to tune in to his coffee podcasts back then.
I wish him well but he was a kooky douche.
First, do no harm.......unless it’s a conservative then all bets are off...............
Only with Trump can a person put a post on social media asking for assistance and then have the President’s son respond with a note that he is bringing it to his father’s attention. Only with Trump can the person soon get a message from the President that he is “on it”.
Neither Biden nor anyone in his administration would have responded with an offer of assistance whether it be Scott Adams or John Doe.
Friend of ours has gotten Pluvicto.....starting 2 years ago....someone at Kaiser is messing with Adams.
He never supported Harris. He has always been a Trump supporter and has been very vocal about it.
Yes.
You’re probably thinking about Adam Scott, the actor who campaigned for Kamala. This is Scott Adams, the cartoonist.
After 4 doses of Pluvicto my PSA started going up again
If a Dem asker for Trumps help with medical treatment I’m sure he’d be “on it” too. He’s that kind of guy.
But when it comes to criminal behavior, “no one is above the law”. They will claim victim hood to change the narrative. Accountability is needed or the bad behavior will continue
Good luck Scott! I’m hoping you get every chance to survive this nightmare.l for as long as you can.
Nope.
Grok:
No, Scott Adams did not campaign for Kamala Harris in 2020 (or at any other time). He was a vocal supporter of Donald Trump during the 2020 election cycle, having endorsed him in 2016 and continuing to defend him publicly. Adams repeatedly criticized Harris and the Biden-Harris ticket on X (formerly Twitter), mocking her debate performances, questioning her charisma, and accusing the Democratic campaign of spreading hoaxes (e.g., the “Fine People Hoax....
Jack Posobiec posted on X that Scott’s treatment is a “go”for tomorrow so it appears DJT/RFKJr intervention worked if Posobiec’s info is correct. prayers up!
The drug is $250,000 and may get him an extra 4 months at the most. Reality is it probably will not work.
According to this guy, a combination of Pluvicto and high dose Ivermectin + Mebendazole could work, because Ivermectin and Mebendazole are both radiosensitizers that will enhance Pluvicto's mechanism of action of Lutetium-177 beta emission.

Pluvicto was developed in Germany and the research was funded by the German government. That company sold the U.S. rights to a Big Pharma company that did just a cursory trial, and raised the price astronomically.
It’s pretty much a last gasp effort in treating extremely progressive Metastatic Prostate Cancer.
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer 11 years ago. I have been blessed in that I have responded to very low level of androgen deprivation therapy. So well that my oncologist at MD Anderson tells me that my cancer will never progress, or need any other treatment.
That’s great! Thanks for the update.
