[Kathy]

I don't plan to try to organize a drive, but will give donation info to those who wish to contact me privately. 
  Thanks for the offers.

    glad he is doing better that expected, do we need to have a blood drive or such for his upcoming surgery?? I hear that the donation of blood in someones name will take some money off the hospital bill.

  Just wanted to share the good news with those of our friends who have supported me through my nephew Jef's cancer treatment. An e-mail was better than making 60 phone calls!
  Jef has completed his chemo and radiation therapies, gained back over half of the weight he lost in the past year, an upper body scan verified that his cancer has not metastasized or spread, his PET scan showed a reduction of 40% in the size of the tumor on his hip, and that the reconstructive surgery after removal probably will not include any artificial saddles, rods, or pins as was first projected. The reconstructive procedures will be mild compared to the initial diagnosis, requiring only grafting of bone to re-build a portion of the hip.
  His surgery will be either 05/16 or 05/30 dependent on when both surgeons can coordinate their schedules.
  I want to thank you one and all for your monetary contributions (raffle), support, sympathy, and inquiries over the past year. Your interest has been an invaluable emotional support.
