I think it was Jim Henley who had the tongue cancer diagnosis and wrote that article. Doesn't detract from the essential point of your post, which is that's a cracking good article and worth reading.
ReplyDeleteWhoops, you're right. I mistook the byline of the previous article for the byline of the one I linked to. I'll edit the post.
DeleteI am obviously biased since I'm both a gamer and an oncologist, but that was a terrific read. Thanks for the link.
