Ann, I put it up there just 30 seconds ago--how long it takes 2
actually appear on site, I don't know.

I asked that it b held 4 u--u deserve it.  The scan is perfect, down
to the quote marks & everything.  You'll earn a quick 50 cents on this
1.

4 any1 who is battling or has bbattled cancer, this is an absolute
"must read"!  & it is my deepest honor & privilege 2 make these
materials available 2 u at the request of Cancer Recovery Foundation
of America, who has donated the materials so that they may be made
available to those w/print disabilities.  I will complete more books
as soon as I return from my travels.  Farewell 4 now.
