The Walnut: Recent issues

The Walnut - September, 2012 PDF icon

The summer has not provided a respite from the duties of our group. The two summer meetings produced excellent open discussions on how to help the newly diagnosed.

Our chairman, for one, has actively lobbied for approval of Zytiga (page 5) and inquired about the Cancer Centre Fitness facility (page 6). Sadly though, we have lost some friends to this disease.

The Walnut - July/August, 2012 PDF icon

We slither into the heat with a potpourri of interesting events of the last few weeks.

Please check page 3 for the date of the August meeting since there is no August issue.

The editorial staff will use the time off to research proper uses of; the semi-colon and - hyphen.

Have a relaxing summer!

The Walnut - July/August, 2012

The Walnut - June, 2012 PDF icon

Highlights? Well, let’s see. We have Dr. Segal plus some members learning how to do robotic surgery (medical degree optional). A little more fuel on the fire that is the PSA controversy. The Alterna run looms and we need contributions. Something about pizza’s oregano being a cure. And all of this in our usual digestible six-page spread. Special this month: Free. Again.
