Rep. Alan Nunnelee (R-MS) announced that he will undergo brain surgery Monday.
The second-term congressman said in a statement Thursday that the small mass found on the right side of his brain is “isolated.” He arrived Wednesday at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.
“I have been blessed throughout this process to not only have a great team of doctors, but also your prayers and support,” he said in the written statement. “I am grateful for your continued prayers, thoughts, and well-wishes for a speedy recovery.”
It would be good to know if the tumor is of a fast-growing type that could cause great destruction.
I’d lay odds that he has a great team of doctors thanks to his government funded health care plan.
Now let’s be nice! I’m not a big fan of his positions and I really hate the term “well-wish” but it’s a fellow human with a nasty disease. Plenty of snarkworthier subjects out there, I’m sure.
Given that there is a slight chance that the mass may be empathy, the congressman wants it removed as quickly as possible.
Not even to say “won’t help, he’ll still be a Republican when he wakes up?”
