Dana's death at 44 should remind us all that cancer is not being cured and that research is being stalled in this country. She is the same age as my niece. I would like to remember two not so well known people, Cheryl Alley, who died of melanoma at about age 55, 8 years ago, and Mary Parker who died of osteocarcinoma at 67 last year. They were my healthy friends who were taken too soon. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn Ray
