Quote:
"Recent liver surgery revealed that I have cancer that now is in other parts of my body," Carter said in the statement released by the Carter Center. "I will be rearranging my schedule as necessary so I can undergo treatment by physicians at Emory Healthcare."
The statement makes clear that Carter's cancer is widely spread, but not where it originated, or even if that is known at this point. The liver is often a place where cancer spreads and less commonly is the primary source of it. It said further information will be provided when more facts are known, "possibly next week."

If I am going to be honest, this is it for him. This is essentially what my grandfather died from and he was 15 years younger. At age 90 I hope he could take on something like this but they don't even know where it originated. Let's hope it wasn't the pancreas and has not reached it.
