Rep. Clay Shaw Faces a 2nd Cancer Surgery
From Times Wire Reports
Rep. Clay Shaw will undergo surgery next week to remove a small cancerous tumor on his lung, the 13-term Republican congressman said in West Palm Beach.
Shaw, 66, underwent a similar surgery in January 2003. Doctors noticed the new spot, confined to the lower left lung, on a routine follow-up CAT scan.
For the 2003 surgery, Shaw was hospitalized two days and was back to work in two weeks.
