Donnell Thomas (1990 Nobel Laureate). Since his Nobel prize, two other staffers have won Nobels as well. Here's the leukemia part of the center's website: http://www.fhcrc.org/research/diseases/leukemia/ I reported on several kids who went out there for treatment in the early 80s and survived. The town held fund raisers for years to raise money to help the families pay for the treatment.” 10:32:14 AM 3/06/08 “On the way along with good thoughts, sorry to hear it and they are doing a lot to treat AML these days.” 10:34:41 AM 3/06/08 “Mark, we will keep your family in our thoughts.
