Last week at our lake house, I watched silent mornings slowly
unfold the glow of each day, and knew life is good. Issues with our phone line brought Dennis, a field
technician, and 7-year MD Anderson cancer survivor. He told of meeting a bald, courageous, 7-year-old
little girl in radiation to whom he immediately gave his ponytail, to be weaved
into a wig. Recently she sent him a
letter inviting him to her 15th birthday celebration. His annual checkups would be more convenient at
an MD Anderson clinic closer to his house, but the caring community at our main
campus energizes him. His retirement plans
are to volunteer to drive people from Montgomery, Texas to the main MD Anderson
campus. Make life good!
