of the passing of Chief Justice Rehnquist due to his thyroid cancer. I have read many articles and tried to follow how he was doing, although not once has it been mentioned what kind of thyca he had. There were insinuations that it may have been anaplastic, but nothing defitinite to my knowledge was actually written. Well, he was dx'd last Oct, so almost made a year which is remarkable in itself if this is what he had. We all did notice that he had treatments that were were quite different from the rest of us with the other 3 types. May be rest in peace. Bea

I wonder now if the type of thyroid cancer he had will be released.  I found this quote from him on a news' site:

Quote: "There are dangers that come with successful careers. One can slide almost imperceptibly into a situation where the demands of the job are automatically accorded priority over other, more personal commitments."
