Jamie Raskin Illness, Health Update

Jamie Raskin announced on 28 December 2022 that he has been suffering from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (a form of cancer) and also said he will undergo chemoimmunotherapy during the upcoming months.

“In addition to destroying cancer cells, chemotherapy impairs natural antibodies and undermines the body’s immune system. I am advised that it also causes hair loss and weight gain (although I am still holding out hope for the kind that causes hair gain and weight loss).”

He added,

“With the benefit of early detection and fine doctors, the help of my extraordinary staff, the love of Sarah and our daughters and sons-in-law (actual and to-be) and family and friends, and the support of my beloved constituents and my colleagues in the House, I plan to get through this and, in the meantime, to keep making progress every day in Congress for American democracy,”

He said in a prepared statement,

“I am about to embark on a course of chemo-immunotherapy on an outpatient basis at Med Star Georgetown University Hospital and Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center. The prognosis for most people in my situation is excellent after four months of treatment.”

Jamie got diagnosed in May 2010 with colon cancer and he got six weeks of radiation and chemotherapy. He took chemotherapies through early 2011 to remove part of his colon.
