Dear Friends and family,

I'm now in Houston, at M. D. Anderson cancer center. I've checked into a hotel, a mile or so from the hospital. The hospital has a 24 hour shuttle to the hospital about 2 miles away.

I'm here to get a second opinion from the folks who are supposed to be the best. So I'll be an outpatient here while the evaluation is going on. If it is AML, I guess they will begin treatment down here right away. I can tell you all this much, I don't care what it is, I fully intend to kick its butt.

God Bless all, Jack
