Limbaugh was at President Trump’s State of the Union address on Tuesday, where he was presented with the Medal of Freedom. He has since missed shows for treatment, but staffers were informed that he is expected to return on Friday.

“So, I have to tell you something today that I wish I didn’t have to tell you. It’s a struggle for me because I had to inform my staff earlier today,” he said earlier this week. “I can’t help but feel that I’m letting everybody down. The upshot is that I have been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer.”
Limbaugh had said that the disease will keep him off the air on certain days when he’ll receive treatment, but staffers are optimistic he’ll make his return on Friday as expected.
