Casey DeSantis, wife of the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, has been diagnosed with breast cancer. The Republican governor made this revelation in a statement shared with Fox News. The statement read,
"I am saddened to report that Florida’s esteemed First Lady and my beloved wife has been diagnosed with breast cancer. As a mother of three young children, Casey is the centerpiece of our family and has made an impact on the lives of countless Floridians through her initiatives as first lady. As she faces the most difficult test of her life, she will not only have my unwavering support but the support of our entire family, as well as the prayers and well wishes from Floridians across our state.”
The 43-year-old governor described his wife as a “true fighter who will never, never, never give up.” The couple have been married since 2010 and they union has produced three children.
Casey DeSantis, 41, is a former producer and show host for the PGA Tour. As the first lady of the state, DeSantis has carried out some major ideas including "Hope Florida — A Pathway to Prosperity, Economic Self-Sufficiency and Hope."
Gov. DeSantis, who has been perceived to be a worthy candidate for the 2024 presidential elections, has not hidden his Christian faith from his people.
During the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s ‘’Road to Majority’’ conference in June, he said, “You got to be strong. You got to put on the full armor of God. You got to take a stand — take a stand against the left’s schemes. You got to stand your ground. You got to be firm. You will face flaming arrows, but take up the shield of faith and fight on.”
“So I look forward to joining with you in the battles to come. I can tell you that, in the state of Florida, I’ll be holding the line. I’ll be standing my ground. I won’t back down, and I have only begun to fight,” he added.
In March, he talked about the need for “a renewal of American civics” in public schools. He said that people need to be taught why America was founded, what the principles that made our country unique were.
‘’They need to be taught that our rights do not come from government; they come from God,” the governor said.
