I too had chemotherapy and radiation and a whole host of side effects. I have been free of cancer for nearly 20 years, and with the medication I'm on, I stand a good chance of a normal life. Survivor Karen Dyer, featured in your report, is a wonderful role model...
...July 2006, and has undergone repeated rounds of chemotherapy, and has not been seen in public in more than a year. Pavarotti released a statement in July saying he was recovering well, following a report that quoted one of his daughters saying that her father "is dying." On Aug. 8, the singer checked in with a fever to a Modena hospital, where he remained for nearly three weeks of treatment...
