TORONTO (AP) — Former Toronto mayor Rob Ford is in hospital with his family at his side as he continues his cancer treatment.

Ford’s Chief of Staff Dan Jacobs said Thursday doctors are determining next steps, and working on building his strength to be able to resume chemotherapy. Jacobs said Ford has had about 10 rounds of chemotherapy thus far. The Ford family has asked for privacy.

Ford gained international notoriety in 2013 when, after months of denials, he acknowledged he had smoked crack cocaine in one of his “drunken stupors,” but then refused to resign.

He was diagnosed with pleomorphic liposarcoma in 2014.

Following an aggressive round of treatment, Ford underwent surgery to remove the tumor last May. In October, doctors discovered two cancerous growths on his bladder. He has been in the hospital since late February.

1. He was a party animal who was a hell of a lot of fun to watch

It was nice to know all the sleazes aren't on our side of the border, anyway.

I hope he manages to recover from this.
