UCSF’s Dr. Susan Chang was on PBS’ NewsHour tonight, being interviewed about Senator Kennedy’s Glioma diagnosis. Susan is my neuro-oncologist: she was very precise and politic about the disease, avoiding making a ‘TV diagnosis.’ Of course, what we Glioma patients want to know is, does the good Senator have stage 3 Glioma (prognosis 3-5 years) like me or stage 4 (about 1 year) like my late friend and rector Mike Spillane?
