Pat News

As you know Pat was recently diagnosed with lymphoma, a form of cancer. The diagnosis is just about certain and although chemotherapy is the almost certainly the course of action, a few more tests are being done to ascertain precisely the course of therapy to pursue. Pat has been consulting 2 specialists, one at UCI and the other at City of Hope. In general the response to therapy in this condition is quite good - just how good a result to expect will depend on the results of the tests being done now. Appointments on April 6th and April 13 with theses specialists will define the course of action that we will take. We will be starting the treatments almost immediately after that.
