A friend of mine needs to move to Beijing (China) for a while.
She is under treatment for breast cancer (tamoxifen, I think). She could
not be back for several months.
I understand that the net in not the best place to get reccomendations

Just wanted to get that off my chest before anyone reads the sig line
and their heart stops....I found out today that the wife of the guy that
is doing the major remodelling work on my house had been diagnosed with
bladder cancer.

Dear folks,
Please, if you know of any one who has fought against  "Poorly
differentiated embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma", or has a child suffering
