is mds cancer
FULL STORY. Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) -- a group of serious blood cancers -- are nearly five times more common in seniors than previously thought, according to a new study by researchers from the John Theurer Cancer Center at Hackensack University Medical Center.
In 2010, Tom Scheibeler was diagnosed with Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLS). He was forced into early retirement from Holy Cross, where he was Maintenance Supervisor for 18 years. After his struggles with PLS, he found a lump on his neck and it was determined to be tonsil cancer. The Scheibeler family will be holding a benefit spaghetti dinner and bake sale on Sunday, October 25th from 12-4pm in the Cafeteria.
