Paul Aldrich

In July while on vacation in Montana, Paul was having breathing problems. Upon returning to Washington, we went to see a doctor and was told he has possible cancer in lungs, lymph nodes and abdomin. We are in early stages of blood tests, xyays, scans, surgeries and hospital visits, to determine extent so we can find a treatment. He had 1.5 liters of fluids drained from his lung and is breathing a little easier. Last weekend he took a fall down the stairs. Fortunately he didn't break anything, but is sore and bruised. We are concentrating on getting him to eat and gain back some strength. He has lost about 30 lbs.
