Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg underwent a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure on a bile duct stent she received last year, the Supreme Court said Wednesday. Ginsburg, who was admitted at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, is expected to be released from the hospital by the end of the week. Per the court, Ginsburg's doctors say stent revisions are common, and done to minimize the risk of infection in the future. Ginsburg — who, at 87, is the oldest member on the court — disclosed earlier this month that she is undergoing chemotherapy for a reoccurrence of pancreatic cancer.

From the HHS Public Access website (this was a real eye opener):
Biliary stenting is a frequently performed palliative procedure for relieving obstructive jaundice in advanced cancer. Biliary obstruction may be associated with pruritus, jaundice, nausea, and anorexia. Stent procedures involving internal (endoscopic) or external (percutaneous) drainage are used to reduce elevated bilirubin levels to reduce symptoms, as well as to enable future chemotherapy.

I don't wish her ill, but I think Coach DJT needs to start warming up the bull pen.

This witch is desperately trying to stay alive just in case Biden wins and can replace her with another lunatic who encourages baby murder and thinks international law trumps the US Constitution. I would not want to be standing next to her on Judgment Day.

she just has to hold on another 96 days. Or else another 1550 days. In that case better get the ancient Egyptian embalmers on retainer.

Everybody's got to go, sooner or later. All indications are RBG is overdue for a meeting with her Maker. I hope the meeting goes well . . .

It’s minimally invasive surgery when it’s on someone other than yourself!

CBS reporting a "minimally invasive non-surgical procedure"?
She probably went in for open heart surgery, full chemo treatment, and a liver transplant.

Given how bizarre 2020 has been, I gotta believe we WILL have a SCOTUS hearing for RBG's replacement, and this time the dims aren't going to go soft on the nominee like they did for Kavanaugh. You thought the riots in Portland/Seattle/Minneapolis were bad, wait until you see the dim senators acting out at this hearing in the senate chambers.

To steal from another poster at another site - 'This procedure is called "taxidermy". ' Don't recall who did it, but this comment is my nomination for Comment Of The Year!

I don’t think your maker would appreciate any comments on dying. She made her bed, let it be, let’s not gloat. We will start to sound like the progressives we despise.

I don't wish her any harm but the old lady is terminal.
She has had the meat.
It's just a matter of time.

They certainly are tying to downplay her illness. I've lost track of how many trips to the hospital it's been this year.
