Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf announced Wednesday morning that he has a treatable form of prostate cancer.
According to a statement from the governor, a regular checkup led to the diagnosis.
“In consultation with my doctors, I have a planned treatment schedule that will begin in the coming weeks. Those treatments will last the next several months, but they will present no impairment to my ability to perform my duties as governor. Prior to beginning treatment, I will take a brief time to spend with my family. I am very thankful that my doctors caught this cancer quickly and have worked with me to plan a treatment schedule that will address my medical issues and allow me to serve the people of Pennsylvania.”
