Truly we live in an age of miracles.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg revealed that she is "cancer free" on Tuesday in an interview in her chambers with CNN, reports the outlet. The 86-year-old has been treated for cancer twice in the past 13 months — she had a tumor removed from her pancreas in August and two cancerous nodules on her lung removed in December 2018.

In the interview, the justice told CNN her year was off to a good start. "I'm cancer free. That's good," she told CNN.

Last August, Ginsburg underwent a three-week course of radiation for a tumor on her pancreas, according to a release sent by the Supreme Court. The tumor was treated "definitively," according to the statement, and there is no evidence of disease elsewhere in the body.

Surely we have video of this interview, right? Right?

Maybe. I am the wrong one to ask. I avoid videos, YouTube and all that. The last time I turned on my TV was to see President Trump's inauguration.
