....You are shortly going to get one of the world's great cancer surgeons in your state.

Dr. Micheal Choti of Johns Hopkins, and the man that saved my life from cancer, called me today and he's very excited as he's becoming the Chief of Surgery at UT Southwestern - Texas (Dallas) after 21 years at Hopkins. He moves to Dallas in October and will probably rent a place until they can find a house. So if any of you are Realtors in the Dallas area and will take Very Special Care of my friend then I'll be glad to pass along your card, and consider it a personal favor.

And if my cancer returns - I'll be flying to Dallas for treatment. I'm his longest surviving cancer-free patient (7.5 years post-op) for my kind of disease and he's the only one I would have faith in to keep me going. I wish him well and if any of you folks in Texas run into gut-cancer issues, this is the man you want to go see.
