Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz is one tough human being:
Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Democrat of Florida, kicked off a breast cancer awareness campaign today with disclosures of her own that hadn’t been widely known before now.
The congresswoman revealed over the weekend that for the last year, she had battled breast cancer and had undergone seven major surgeries, including a double mastectomy and removal of her ovaries, all without skipping most beats on Capitol Hill or public events at home during her re-election in campaign. She disclosed her battle — including her decisions to have such cancer-prone areas removed because of a genetic predisposition — to the Miami Herald on Saturday, and during an interview this morning on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
Stay well Congresswoman.
Wow. I had no idea she was going through all of that. I hope she beats it.
