‘Dilbert’ creator Scott Adams shares grim cancer update from hospital bed
- On Saturday, Scott Adams, the 68-year-old Dilbert creator, disclosed from his hospital bed that he is paralyzed below the waist after prostate cancer spread to his bones and expects transfer to a facility for targeted radiation.
- Earlier this year, Adams announced he was dying from prostate cancer and asked President Donald Trump for help scheduling treatment.
- On Sunday, Adams said Pluvicto is postponed due to radiation, and President Donald Trump previously intervened to help schedule the treatment amid insurance delays.
- On Wednesday, Adams said one more radiation is planned but treatments so far show limited progress, praising medical staff while he naps and reads supportive messages.
- In recent years, Adams has been better known for controversy than comics after 2023 remarks led hundreds of U.S. newspapers, including Gannett, to drop Dilbert, reducing his income by approximately 40 percent.
