Former Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse, a Republican, has been diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer, he announced on social media Tuesday.
“This is a tough note to write, but since a bunch of you have started to suspect something, I’ll cut to the chase: Last week I was diagnosed with metastasized, stage-four pancreatic cancer, and am gonna die,” Sasse wrote.
Sasse spoke of appreciating the time he has left with his wife and three children and said he was “not going down without a fight.”
