Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg released from hospital, recuperating at home

Gee, I was lead to belief she was already back at work and training for a 26K marathon!

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was released from the hospital on Tuesday and is recovering at home.

The 85-year-old justice spent five days at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York after a procedure Friday to remove a cancerous growth from her left lung.

The court said that after the surgery no further treatment was planned, and that there was no evidence of remaining disease.

The Christmas Day discharge came the same day that a movie chronicling the justice’s early legal career, “On the Basis of Sex,” was released to the public.

The procedure removed two malignant nodules that were discovered incidentally during tests Ginsburg received while being treated for rib fractures sustained in a fall last month. Ginsburg said earlier this month that she has almost fully recovered from the rib injury.

Ginsburg’s health has been a matter of intense public concern. The former ACLU litigator is the oldest justice on the bench and the senior member of the court’s liberal wing. Her retirement would likely enable President Donald Trump to name her successor, further cementing a conservative majority on the nine-member court.

This is her third bout with cancer. What are the odds that none of them has metastasized? The statement is meaningless. It didn't say the nodules were primary. No evidence of remaining disease- did they look? No further treatment-maybe there is nothing to do. I don't think she has much time left, and I don't think she'll do the right thing and retire.

The tumors removed from her lung were already metastasized.  It's likely settled into her bones already.

"Notorious" RBG  was "cloned".  The Cancer surgery was just a ruse.

I agree. She is probably riddled with cancer, but she won't retire.

I would bet she hangs in there until 2020 and the Pubs will not have the courage to confirm a serious constitutionalist in an election year.

She is retiring next month - January, 2019

Yea, I can see that. She looks like she would be fun in the sack, muy picante. Until you try to break up with her. Then you will come home to find a rabbit boiling on your stove. And your 'new' girlfriend would be stalked, and would get a cup of coffee dumped on her at Starbucks.
