Morahan Being Treated For Leukemia
State Sen. Thomas Morahan, R-New City, is undergoing treatment for a form of leukemia at a Manhattan hospital, his spokesman said today, reports the Journal News’ Laura Incalcaterra.
Morahan, 78, hadn’t been feeling well and went to see his doctor, Ron Levine, the spokesman, said.
The results of medical tests showed the senator, who has served more than a decade, had a form of leukemia, Levine said. He did not know what form.
Morahan has been in the hospital since Monday for treatment and Levine said it was not yet known when the senator might be released.
Despite being in a hospital bed, Morahan is continuing to oversee his duties, including regular communication with his office staff and with members of state government, Levine said.
“He’s getting treatment in Manhattan and the doctors are very, very optimistic,” Levine said.
