Former President Jimmy Carter said Wednesday that he had been given a diagnosis of cancer. The New York Times reports.
Recent liver surgery revealed that I have cancer that is now in other parts of my body, Mr. Carter, 90, said in a statement. I will be rearranging my schedule as necessary so I can undergo treatment by physicians at Emory Healthcare. A more complete public statement will be made when facts are known, possibly next week.
The Carter Center said on Aug. 3 that doctors at Emory University Hospital had performed an elective procedure on Mr. Carter to remove a small mass in his liver. At the time, Mr. Carters office said that the prognosis is excellent for a full recovery.
Mr. Carter, who left the White House in 1981, has been among the most active figures in American public life, but his health has been the subject of some speculation in recent months. On May 10, Mr. Carter cut short a visit to Guyana because he was not feeling well. But concerns about his condition faded after he appeared in public two days later.
