jenkThe Seattle Times has decided to re-run the memorable article entitled "Molly's Cancer" on the web. Why? For one thing, it's been 10 years and they're still getting reprint requests.
Yes, I remembered the article. I remembered the 12 hugs a day, and debating reconstruction. And I remembered the first I'd heard of Metallica.

Jan. 24, 1991. Two days before the mastectomy. I see Dr. Clarfeld to sign the surgery consent form.It's a good article.
We sit down in his office. I take out a T-shirt from my backpack and tell him Torben's son is in this hard-rock band, Metallica. I thought a shirt from their first album was appropriate to the occasion. The shirt says: KILL 'EM ALL.
I give it to Dr. Clarfeld. And think I detect a slight smile.
