[FoxNews] Jackson Lee previously battled breast cancer in 2011U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, announced Sunday night that she is being treated for pancreatic cancer, but assured her constituents that she will soon be back at full strength. Jackson Lee, 74, has been representing Texas' 18th congressional district for 30 years. The congresswoman said she will "likely be occasionally absent from Congress" as she undergoes treatment, but emphasized that her office will continue to deliver the constituent services they "deserve and expect." * A human pancreas transplant is incompatible. Perhaps a Rodent? Jackson Lee previously battled breast cancer, having been diagnosed in 2011 before announcing the following year she was cancer free. The Democrat served as a judge before she was elected to an at-large Houston City Council seat in 1989. "Please keep me and my family in your prayers as you have always done. Know that you will remain in mine," she concluded. "As always, God bless you and God bless the United States of America." Posted by: Skidmark 2024-06-03 |
