It was about mid-October when I began experiencing abnormal
fatigue and a cold I just couldn’t kick. 
Around Thanksgiving I developed a gland infection in my neck and
mouth.   The week of Christmas I was
finally referred to a hematologist and they performed a bone marrow biopsy on
December 23.  On December 27 I was
diagnosed with CMML, a rare form of Leukemia. 
CMML affects approximately 3 in 100,000 people a year and 9 out of 10
CMML patients is over the age of 60.

I am feeling strong, optimistic and ready to do battle.  I will face this challenge head on and without
fear, just as I have everything else in my life.  With the support of my family, friends and
colleagues I WILL BE A CANCER SURVIVOR.

Sincerely,

Paul
