"They say the cancer can attack any organ in my body at anytime," he said. "When this happens, the organ, if possible, will have to be removed.

Humphrey, who suggested people consider eating one less hamburger a week so some of the huge amount of grain now fed to cattle could be available to feed the world's hungry.
