Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has declared she is “cancer free,” beating the disease for the fourth time after undergoing treatment for pancreatic cancer in the summer.

The 86-year-old justice, one of the oldest to serve on the Supreme Court, offered the health update to CNN in an interview in her chambers Tuesday evening.

“I’m cancer free. That’s good,” Ginsburg said, with CNN reporting that she was “sounding energized and speaking animatedly.”

If cancer could be collected from the body and then tossed onto an unsuspecting nation in exchange for that individual’s personal well-being, that’s what must have happened.

Places like WAPO, CNN, Congress, and the USSC then function as dispersing agents.

But they do lie, so in actuality the Grim Reaper is really only a few breaths away, whenever he gets around to it. Even the “Dirty Jobs” guy wouldn’t want that one.

I was diagnosed with Leukemia fourteen Years ago. After ten of years Treatment my Oncologist told me I was in Remission.

It was one of those good news, bad news situations. In Remission from Leukemia BUT they found I also had MDS (myelodysplastic syndrome), sometimes referred to as Pre Leukemia when the results of my Bone Marrow Biopsy came in.

They had a BOGO Sale and I didn’t even need a Coupon.

I NEVER say I an Cancer Free, I am in Remission, period.

It just fries my taters that that old Godless Witch will probably outlive me, and I’m only 66. Her rein of terror will forever damage our Republic. Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if that other Godless Witch Hillary outlives me.

BTW -I’m still here because we have the best Healthcare System in the World and the research done by BIG PHARMA came up with the Wonder Drugs I was given.

You are right. Once you are diagnosed with cancer that diagnosis stays on your medical record until you die. The only question I have is RBG stage 4. She is not stage 1.

The word ‘disappointment’ jumps to the front of my mind before I could censor it.

Everybody has cancer, it's just a matter of activation.

Our cells are constantly multiplying and as a result there will always be some cells that are mutated and with the potential to become cancerous. Our bodies have the ability to get rid of these cells most of the time. When our bodies do not recognize the cell as a cancer or can't kill it, then it can become a cancer.

The longer a person lives the greater their rick becomes of getting cancer.

If there were treatments she has had that are not accessible to the rest of us, people like David Koch, Steve Jobs, Jackie O and the like would have had access to them too. As much as it seems that way, it can’t be something special being on the court. Even Jobs had a liver transplant and, as far as I understand, cancer patients don’t get transplants and he still died young.
