Tonight at my cancer support group meeting, one of the gang quoted an article in today's Dayton Daily News which I had not read.  I hope you can read it at:

It is in the upper right-hand corner, by Daryn Kagan.  (You may need to be subscribers to the DDN web page.)  The important quote for us in the most unpopular club in the world is "When you die, it does not mean that you lose to cancer.  You beat cancer by how you live, why you live and the manner in which you live."  It helped me to say "F*** YOU, CANCER!!!!!"  Especially after I found the Jimmy V speech at the bottom of

and the Stuart Scott speech at

In the Scott  speech, substitute the names Tom and John.  You'll know where.

God bless you all.
