WASHINGON, D.C. – U.S. Rep. Glenn “GT” Thompson on Tuesday released the following statement:
“After a routine physical and subsequent tests, I was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer. While this diagnosis is a surprise, I feel well, and I will continue my work representing the people of Pennsylvania’s 15th District.
“Anyone who’s worked with me knows I am a person of faith as well as an eternal optimist, both of which will guide me as I undergo treatment. I am grateful to my medical team, my family, everyone I work with and represent in Congress.
“My faith in God is strong and I will tackle this head on. I appreciate both prayers and privacy during this time.”
