> convenient for her to have the surgery. She underwent chemotherapy and now

> the cancer has recurred. Her case is unusual because it's recurred a couple

> of times and has always recurred in the abdomen.

> She has a modem and will be joining an on-line service soon. In the

> meantime, I'm going to print your article and send it to her with your

> permission. She'll be interested in the information on Sloan-Kettering.
