520			_a"Since March, I've had brain lesions followed by full-brain radiation. I lost my adrenal function and about 20 pounds. I've felt new cancers develop in my face. My voice was reduced to a whisper because a swollen lymph node paralyzed my left vocal cord. And now in July 2003, I had so much fluid around my heart I could barely breathe. One of the nation's top cancer researchers came in to the intensive care unit to see me, and I asked him what he would do in my situation. He looked at me and said, 'I'd pursue two tracks.' 'Two tracks?' 'You should hope for the best but prepare for the worst.'" (ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH) This article includes the last journal entries made by reporter John Curley chronicling his battle with lung cancer.
