Five weeks after doctors discovered that Tony Snow had a diagnoses of metastatic colon cancer -- he is back at work.
I just watched a briefing by Mr. Snow. He seems very optimistic about his treatment plan. He will receive chemotherapy and then maintenance chemotherapy to try and keep the cancer at bay.
Tony advises anyone with cancer to "not go it alone". He feels very supported by his colleges and family. He also stated that he feels very lucky and he has the gift of life and is going to make the most of it.
Mr. Snow was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2005 and has recently went through exploratory surgery to confirm his cancer recurrence. He did say that there are new chemotherapy drugs that were not available when he was first diagnosed, that he will be treated with at this time.
He seemed a bit choked up in the interview, but only because he is humbled by the love and support he has received.











1. Does anyone know where Tony Snow was treated and who is oncologist was?
I am curious if his doctors used Veridex's CellSearch (circulating tumor cell) test to look at how much his cancer had metastized.
I wish him a very good recovery and good prognosis.
