who was undergoing cancer treatment during such important times for our Nation. Nough said. So, he shows up tonight on the news channels after such a day, to step up to his responsibilities, even during difficult times today with his family. Jerry, you are beautiful.

(3,741 posts)You know what? ... Nadler is the perfect definition of a man who would never put his personal weighty situation on the rest of us. Suffering is not a sport, we all are players.

(2,315 posts)Yes, The Honorable Congressman Nadler deserves a lot of credit for his actions. Both for his wife to whom I join the well-wishers and to his high office.
It is a shame that so many repugnant members of Congress cannot follow his example.
