Denver's Mayor Visits Albus Brooks After Surgery To Remove Tumor
DENVER (CBS4)- Denver Mayor Michael Hancock visited Denver City Councilman Albus Brooks in the hospital after a successful surgery to remove a 15-pound tumor.
Brooks, who represents District 9, announced last week his diagnosis of chondrosarcoma.
On Wednesday, he posted this update, "Hello Family & Friends - Yesterday after 8 hours, surgeons from the University of Colorado Hospital & Denver Health, successfully removed a 15 pound low-grade malignant Chondrosarcoma tumor.
I am grateful the cancer did not spread and that it was contained in the tumor. I am officially a cancer survivor. I have a long road to recovery, but doctors feel optimistic.
I want to thank everyone for your thoughts and prayers. I have literally felt all of the love & support through this process."
