(Reuters) – Berkshire Hathaway Inc Chief Executive Warren Buffett has said he has completed final radiation treatment for prostate cancer, the Omaha World-Herald newspaper reported on Saturday.
Buffett, the world's third-richest person, told executives from newspapers he has acquired in recent months on Friday: “It's a great day for me. Today I had my 44th and last day of radiation.”
Buffett, 82, disclosed in April he was diagnosed with Stage 1 prostate cancer. At the time, he said his case “is not remotely life-threatening or even debilitating in any meaningful way.”
