Did you just hear or read that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Ginsburg has gotten good news after treatment for a tumor on her pancreas? No Evidence of Disease - NED.
Greg, I immediately thought of you. In 1999, she had colon cancer. In 2009, she was diagnosed with early stage pancreatic cancer. After a fall in November 2018 where she broke 3 ribs, the CT scan about her ribs showed that she had cancerous nodules in her lung and a left-lung lobectomy. Then in August 2019, she reported a cancerous tumor on her pancreas and had 3 weeks of radiation. That's 4 times diagnosed with cancer. And Judge Ginsberg is 86.

Wow! I know somebody who had a history of colon cancer who is now mid-90 years old. Something has to be done to prevent the re-occurrence of this devastating expensive disease. It sounds like they successfully maintained her reoccurrences by removing identified cancer tissue and removing it.0

Agree that we need her desperately. I wonder if she’d have retired awhile ago, otherwise.0
