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.

Tony had been lookin’ much better lately, gained weight and got his color back. But, it’s a numbers game. They’ll check his cells.

Shep just said they spoke with him, and
he said this has happened before, so I
pray it’s just temporary fatigue.

Prayed for him when I heard the news on Fox. I had a friend who battled colon cancer, it’s not a nice disease.

Hey Tony, rest up and feel better. You don't get out of doing CNN that easy... ;-)

Prayers for a rapid return to health, and a long time to enjoy it.

I imagine his immune system is still weak from the effects of the chemo. The women I work with that had chemo for breast cancer suffer the effects for up to 18 months.

Prayers for Tony, that this is nothing serious.
