A Legal Field Trip

My adventures in law took me to Roswell Park Cancer Institute today. It was my first visit to Roswell and I was beyond impressed by the facilities and the people. It says volumes to me when a cancer hospital and research center houses its executive offices within the hospital.

The people who work at Roswell devote such focus and enthusiasm to the treatment and cure of cancer. Their focus and dedication are admirable. They believe in what they do. Their energy and drive make a difference. I was in awe of them, while at the same time a little jealous of them too.

After watching the pain and emotional roller coaster ride suffered by Chris's aunt and uncle when his cousin passed away from cancer last year, I have a new found respect for the amazing level of care and research in Buffalo. We are so fortunate to have Roswell available to us here, in our very own backyard.
