Gents,

If it's detected early, it's one of the most treatable forms of cancer.

I read the obituary this morning. Kind of amazing that a direct link to Stalin lasted so long.

History, too, dies.

Just like not researching an award??

Living in poverty, I would imagine her options for treatment of her cancer would be limited. . .

BTW, Svetlana's daughter lives in Portland, OR

It's always sad when a person dies of cancer.
Rest in peace.
