NY Times article about MDS/AML

I don't know how many of you saw the piece in yesterday's NY Times (3/29/12) "Well" column in the Health section, titled "Life, Interrupted: Facing Cancer in Your 20's", by a young woman, Suleika Jaouad. She has recently been diagnosed with MDS which has transformed to AML. The Times will be running a weekly column by her in "Well" called "Life, Interrupted". Definitely worth reading and following.
