Ford is never in a condition to meet his public commitments. Rob Ford isn't my loved one and I don't give a flying fuck about his health. The time for patience, compassion, and understanding is long gone. He deserves neither privacy nor respect.This is really serious. Irrespective of whether or not you like the guy he has two young children and is a human being. I would not wish cancer on my worst enemy. Hope the media gives Mayor Ford and his family the respect and privacy they deserve.
The reason for the public statement from the hospital is because Ford is not in a condition to meet his public commitments as a result of this. Just imagine if this was your loved one. I doubt you would be in a position to make a public statement immediately.
