"The odds of me recovering are essentially zero, Adams, 68. I'll give you any updates if that changes, but it won't. Things are changing fast, Adams added, saying that January would likely be a month of transition one way or the other. He plans to keep working, to follow the news and to use his podcast and social media to comment on American and international politics for as long as it makes sense."
"At the time, he said he hoped radiation would help him regain strength in his legs. However, on Thursday, Adams said he was still no feeling in his legs and no chance of getting it back. Of most concern, he said, was that he was experiencing heart failure, which made it difficult for him to breath during the day, especially if he had a coughing fit."
Scott Adams, 68, has advanced metastasized prostate cancer with a tumor around his spine causing paralysis below the waist and loss of feeling in his legs. He is experiencing heart failure that makes daytime breathing difficult and worsens during coughing fits. Medical prognosis places the chance of recovery at essentially zero, and death could occur within weeks. He previously sought assistance from President Donald Trump to obtain an appointment with Kaiser of Northern California for life-extending treatment. He intends to keep working, follow the news, and comment on politics via his podcast and social media while remaining open to pain medication as needed.
