| Mia Love, first Black GOP congresswoman, shares heartbreaking brain cancer diagnosis |
| 2025-03-02 |
| [NY Post] God bless. My Dad died from Glioblastoma. It's a death sentence Former Rep. Mia Love, who became the first Black woman elected to Congress for the GOP, shared the new grim reality of her brain cancer diagnosis in a statement issued Saturday. The family of Love, 49, said she was diagnosed with glioblastoma and has now stopped all treatment for a malignant tumor as the disease has become too advanced. "Hello Friends, I’m Mia’s daughter Abigale. Many of you are aware that Mom has been fighting GBM brain cancer," the doting daughter wrote on X via her mother’s account. "Sadly her cancer is no longer responding to treatment and the cancer is progressing. We have shifted our focus from treatment to enjoying our remaining time with her," Abigale wrote. The mother of three was diagnosed with glioblastoma in 2022, and revealed her diagnosis in 2023. Glioblastoma manifests in the form of a brain tumor; it is an aggressive form of cancer that has an unknown exact cause.

| #2 From Frank G’s PJMedia link: Love, who is just 49, was the first black Republican congresswoman in the United States. Born to Haitian immigrants, she grew up in New York and Connecticut before moving to Utah after graduating college. She worked as a flight attendant, but she found a passion for politics when she served as a community spokesperson representing homeowners who were fed up with a midge infestation in Saratoga Springs. In 2010, she became the town's mayor. In 2015, she was sworn in to represent Utah's 4th district in the House of Representatives. She lost favor with many Republicans in 2016 when she didn't support Donald Trump for president, and in 2019, she was voted out of office. However, in 2024, in one of her last posts on X, she announced that she was proudly supporting the Trump/JD Vance ticket. |
