Ginsburg broke two ribs in a fall in 2012. She had two prior bouts with cancer and had a stent implanted to open a blocked artery in 2014. The liberal-leaning judge has previously said she would stay on the bench for as long as she felt fully fit and able to give the job her all. Her outspoken nature, in contrast to her diminutive stature, has earned her the popular nickname Notorious RBG, a play on the late rapper Biggie Smalls, known as Notorious BIG. | Ginsburg broke two ribs in a fall in 2012.
