Scott Adams, the creator of the “Dilbert” comic strip, predicted that he will die sometime this summer after revealing a diagnosis for prostate cancer on Monday.
(Prayers and best thoughts to Scott and his family.)
Adams announced his cancer diagnosis on his “Coffee with Scott Adams” show on Rumble. Adams said that he, like former President Joe Biden, has prostate cancer that has metastasized to the bone.
“I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has. I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones,” said Adams. “My life expectancy is maybe this summer. I expect to be checking out from this domain sometime this summer.”
“Now, I realized that for some of you, this is hitting you kind of hard because you’re hearing it for the first time. Weirdly, since it’s old news to me, I’ve just sort of processed it, so it just sort of is what it is,” he added.
Adams did not spare his listeners of the effect that the cancer was having on him, describing it as “really painful – like really, really painful.” He also explained that he waited so long to inform the public of his diagnosis because “once you go public, you’re just the dying cancer guy, and I didn’t want you to have to think about it, and I didn’t want to have to think about it.”
“I am unusually mentally tough. So, while this could be much worse, you know, for some people, I suppose, I’m handling it quite well,” Adams continued. “The pain is tough – I mean really tough – but the mental part, you know, I got that under control. And I can see in the comments that some of you are having a tough time with it. But remember, nothing lasts forever. Nothing lasts forever.”
