Hi all,

The Institute of Medicine has just released a very long report on childhood/adolescent cancer survivors. The report has a good deal of information that will be helpful to long term survivors. You can read the report on-line in a PDF file or order your own copy at the URL below.

I found it too cumbersome to read on-line so ordered my own copy.
Hope others find it helpful.

    Hi,

    You can use the URL I left in the first message to get to a page which will allow you to order the report in book form or PDF file. Just click on order book and follow the directions. The IOM also sent me an 8 page summary report in a PDF file that I can send to members of the long term survivors discussion list I run through ACOR. If you would like me to send you this 8 page summary PDF file then send me a note. (zame@earthlink.net) and I will add you to the list of people who want the summary.
