Statement from Lt. Gov. Coleman Regarding Medical Procedure
??

FRANKFORT, Ky. (Dec. 18, 2023) ? Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman released the following statement regarding a medical procedure she underwent Monday.

?Concerns were raised to me during a recent routine physical exam. With a significant family history of cancer, I made the decision to have a double mastectomy. I am happy to report that a successful surgery was performed today, and I expect to make a full recovery.

?I want to thank the health-care heroes for the compassionate care I continue to receive. I am more appreciative than I can articulate for your expertise and your kindness through this process.

?Serving as Kentucky?s Lieutenant Governor is the honor of my life. I am eternally grateful for my loving and supportive family who makes that possible, a compassionate friend in Gov. Beshear and a top-notch staff.

?As Kentucky?s highest elected teacher, it is only fitting that I leave you with a little homework: Schedule those preventative exams you?ve put off, hug your people a little tighter and be kind, because everyone is fighting a battle you may know nothing about.

?I will see you soon, Team Kentucky.?

?Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman
