WASHINGTON — U.S. Rep. Dan Kildee, D-Mich., said Friday that he has been diagnosed with "a serious but curable form of cancer."
The six-term congressman went in to the doctor for a routine scan and discovered he had squamous cell carcinoma in one of his tonsils, he said.
He'll have surgery to remove the tumor in a few weeks and plans to take another few weeks off afterward in order to recover.
