Pasco County Commissioner Gary Bradford has been absent from recent county board meetings, as he focuses on treatment for a common form of blood cancer.
Pasco County Commission Chairman Jack Mariano shared the news during the county board’s May 9 meeting.
He said Bradford is being treated for a highly survivable form of blood cancer.
“Commissioner Bradford is upbeat, positive,” Mariano said, but Bradford is expected to be out for coming weeks, as focuses on his treatments and convalesces at home.
Meanwhile, Bradford is in contact with his staff members, who are available during office hours to field requests and address concerns.
Mariano said he would be happy to do what he can, if a need for a commissioner should arise.
