Ruth Bader Ginsberg makes first appearance since cancer surgery

Source: Washington Post

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Monday night made her first public appearance since undergoing cancer surgery in December, attending a celebration of her life presented in song.

The 85-year-old justice attended a production of “Notorious RBG in Song” at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington. The program about Ginsburg’s life in the law was created and performed by Ginsburg’s daughter-in-law, the soprano Patrice Michaels, and presented for high school students by the National Constitution Center.

Ginsburg did not speak, and many in the crowd did not know she was there. She sat in the back, and most saw her only as they left the performance. Michaels did not announce her presence.

They are claiming it wasn't her there are no pictures, no "PROOF OF LIFE". These people are sick.

It's like in football when the announcer says "XYZ hasn't thrown an interception in 2 years," and on the very next fucking play they throw an interception?

I feel like a lot of these celebrations and movies, and articles and what not is a little too close to foreshadowing when it comes to RBG and her health.

that RBG is just a shorthand way of saying "total bad ass who kicks butt and takes names."
