Sen. Craig Thomas (R-Wyo.), who has battled leukemia in recent months, is in “serious condition” and is with his family at National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., according to a statement released by his family.
“At this difficult time, all we can do is give him as much love and support as possible,” his wife, Susan Thomas, said. “The support and prayers of Wyoming folks have made a tremendous difference to us. It has meant everything to Craig, and I know it helps him today.”
Thomas is undergoing a second round of chemotherapy, but his blood cancer has resisted treatment, and he is suffering from infection.
The family thanked supporters for their thoughts and prayers and promised updates on his condition.
Thomas, who was in the hospital while being reelected last year, announced his diagnosis shortly afterward.
