Gibson’s Bakery co-owner David Gibson is fighting pancreatic cancer, he announced in a video posted Tuesday to the bakery’s Facebook page.

He also said he believes Oberlin College is trying to wait until he and his 91-year-old father are dead as the two sides continue to battle in court in a case that resulted in the largest monetary award for libel in Ohio history.

Doing so wouldn’t absolve the college of having to pay if it loses or exhausts all its appeals, according to an experienced First Amendment attorney who has been following the case.

I hope he can get the same cadillac care that Notorious RGB received for her Pancreatic Cancer.

There is no “waiting out” here.  If they die, their estates or their heirs receive the judgment and the right to continue prosecuting it, and become entitled to the damages award.

Pancreatic cancer is a tough one to beat.

Yes, but he has been the motivating and driving force behind the effort.
