## Transcript

Former president Jimmy Carter announced Wednesday he's been diagnosed with cancer. Carter was recently hospitalized after having a mass removed from his liver. He said in a statement that the surgery had revealed he had cancer, and that it has spread to other parts of his body. While the statement didn't specify the type of cancer, Carter's family has a history of cancer diagnoses. Carter's parents, sisters, and brother all died from pancreatic cancer. In a 2007 interview, Carter said he got MRIs and CT scans twice a year to check for lesions on his pancreas. Carter said he's undergoing treatment at Emery Health Care in Atlanta, Georgia.
