Former President Jimmy Carter is slated to begin radiation treatment for several melanoma spots on his brain Thursday afternoon, he said at a news conference in Atlanta.

Carter, 90, told reporters he had a mass removed from his liver on Aug. 3, which he learned was melanoma.

“I’ll be prepared for anything that comes,” he said.

His family has a history of pancreatic cancer. His father, both his sisters and his brother died of pancreatic cancer, and his mother had pancreatic cancer as well.
