Ginsburg appears strong during first speech after undergoing a pancreatic cancer.
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, making her first public appearance after she undergone a pancreatic cancer, stand strong when she accepted an honorary degree from the University at Buffalo.

Ginsburg said, “In July 2018, Wayne (Wisbaum) wrote to me that his health disabled him from playing a lead role in the arrangements for my visit here but he still hoped to attend all the events. He asked me to confirm that I would come to Buffalo in August 2019 in any event. I did so immediately and I did not withdraw when my own health problems presented challenges.

She is now 86, yet people of all ages want to take their picture with her.
