In March, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles told the world she'd been diagnosed with breast cancer. Doctors caught the cancer early, and Wiles began treatment immediately. President Trump called Wiles an "incredible Chief of Staff" in a Truth Social post and said Wiles would continue working during her treatment.
"She has a fantastic medical team, and her prognosis is excellent!" President Trump wrote. "Her strength and her commitment to continue doing the job she loves, and does so well, while undergoing treatment tells you everything you need to know about her."
Yesterday, Wiles announced on X that she was declared cancer-free after an appointment at the Mayo Clinic.
Some personal news I’m grateful to share. After a medical appointment at the Mayo Clinic this week, my pathology results came back clear.

I am cancer free.
Thank you to my family, friends, doctors, and everyone who prayed for me, checked in, and supported me along the way.

"A special thank you to President Trump for his unwavering support. I am deeply grateful and will continue to work to advance his America First Agenda," Wiles wrote on X.
The White House declined to comment further on Wiles’ announcement.
She continued to work at the White House as one of Trump’s closest aides while undergoing treatment, even making a rare visit to Capitol Hill in July to huddle privately with top Senate Republicans and break the logjam that stalled Trump’s SAVE America Act. Wiles is the first woman to serve as a White House chief of staff.
About 300,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year, according to the National Institutes of Health. Approximately 13% of women are diagnosed with the disease at some point during their lifetime.
Many wished Wiles continued good health.
Our prayers are answered! Congratulations Susie. Cheryl and I are celebrating your recovery. We love ❤️ You.
