HARRISBURG — Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf said today that he has prostate cancer but that it is treatable and will not interfere with his work as governor.
Mr. Wolf, 67, said the cancer was found early through a routine check-up and that he will begin treatment in the next few weeks.
The governor emphasized that he will not be incapacitated by the cancer or treatment. And he used the announcement to encourage others to schedule regular doctor’s visits.
“Whatever the problem is, regular medical check-ups really do matter,” he said.
