Pasha Majdi, President of the Jefferson County Commission, recently opened up about his cancer journey after being declared cancer-free. He discussed his battle with advanced cancer and his treatment experiences while expressing gratitude for improved local healthcare services. Working alongside fellow commissioner Cara Keys, he announced plans for a charity 5K race to support cancer initiatives in the area, coinciding with a significant $60 million investment by WVU Medicine into Jefferson Medical Center.
