[medeak]

3. No... no mention of it in her column...

2. She was on CSPAN in the past week. I think I heard she's on her

3rd roundabout with it. She was wearing a head scarf and never brought it up.
Speaking as a cancer survivor, she's been through a lot :-( but was as great as she
always is!

8. I saw her on C-SPAN last week, wearing a knit hat, looking wan

Made my heart turn over to see her -- people only wear those hats when their hair has fallen out from chemo.

The woman is a treasure. Whatever would we do without her?

:hug: to you Molly; and prayers and renewed health.

9. I saw her a few days ago on CSPAN.

I had no idea that she had cancer, but when I saw her, I thought to myself that she looked like she just had a few chemotherapy sessions. I hope she will make a full recovery and continue to bless us with her wit and wisdom... I have a poster of her in my bedroom from when I met her at a lecture! :)
