Friends,

Sad news. Another friend gone from complications of her treatment, this time graft versus host disease (GVHD) after her transplant. Ironically, and not uncommonly, her CLL was gone.

It is not about destroying the cancer. It is about healing the patient.

More of my thoughts on my blog: bkoffman.blogspot.com

Very sad

Brian
