"Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams is dead at 68. The satirist from Windham died following a long battle with prostate cancer, according to his ex-wife, Shelly Miles. She announced the news on Tuesday with a statement Adams prepared prior to his death during a live stream on his YouTube channel, Coffee with Scott Adams. I had an amazing life, the statement said in part. I gave it everything I had."
"The comic artist frequently gave fans updates about his condition, which had spread to his bones, after announcing in May that he expected to be checkin' out from this domain sometime this summer. Adams outlived that prognosis with support from admirers including members of the Trump Administration, whom he reached out to in November hoping for expedited treatment options. Scott, how do I reach you? Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. responded almost immediately."
