Ruth Bader Ginsburg<br />Says She Is 'Cancer Free'.<br />Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg<br />recently sat down for an interview with CNN<br />and opened up about her health.<br />After undergoing intensive radiation<br />treatment for pancreatic cancer in 2019,<br />Ginsburg is going into 2020 “cancer free.”.<br />I’m cancer free. That’s good, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, via CNN.<br />Although it is her fourth battle with<br />cancer, CNN reports she was “speaking<br />animatedly” and “sounding energized.”.<br />Ginsburg first beat the disease in 1999<br />after being diagnosed with colon cancer.<br />In 2009, she underwent<br />treatment again, this time <br />for pancreatic cancer. .<br />She was then forced to miss oral<br />arguments for the first time in <br />25 years in late 2018 after being<br />diagnosed with lung cancer.<br />Her bill of clean health is a<br />relief to Democrats, as the loss of Ginsburg<br />would allow current president Donald Trump<br />to fill her seat with a conservative judge. .<br />The addition of another right-leaning seat<br />would effectively cement Republican dominance<br />in the Supreme Court for generations.
