Gary Carter Has New Brain Tumors

Gary Carter’s condition has worsened with the discovery of new tumors on his brain, his daughter said Thursday on the family’s blog.

Six months ago, Carter, 57, the former Mets catcher, was found to have an aggressive brain cancer, glioblastoma, that has been treated with radiation and chemotherapy.

“I write these words with tears because I am so sad for my dad,” Kimmy Carter Bloemers said.

She said that one of her father’s doctors “will be coming to my parents’ house this evening to talk to the family about the next step.”

Carter has had an especially difficult week.

“Every day is exhausting and every move takes great effort,” Bloemers wrote.

Last Wednesday, Carter had an open gum wound treated by an oral surgeon. The next day, he fell in his doctor’s office — he also fell on Christmas Eve — and he is being treated for a torn rotator cuff.

Carter attended his annual golf tournament’s banquet on Sunday. Bloemers wrote: “Dad spoke a few words thanking everyone for being there and for all the support and prayers. He said he wants to feel better so he can continue to help others.”

He was at the tournament the next day in West Palm Beach, Fla., which benefits the Autism Project of Palm Beach County. (RICHARD SANDOMIR – The New Tork Times)
