Former Toronto mayor Rob Ford has been released from hospital two weeks after having surgery to remove a cancerous tumour from his abdomen. Mr. Ford stopped at his office and spoke to reporters after being discharged. He said he planned to take his recovery “one day at a time.” Ford said the pain he experienced after the surgery was something he’d never felt before, but he said his team of doctors did “a great job”. Ford’s surgery two weeks ago followed several rounds of chemotherapy and radiation which he said had reduced his tumour to an operable size. “I’m feeling good enough to come to work for a few minutes and I’ll just gradually work my way in,” Ford told reporters outside his office at city hall on Tuesday. “I’m just going to take one day at a time and we’ll see.”
