Cathy Seipp is facing the end of her battle with lung cancer. Her family is with her. Cathy may be familiar to a few of you who offered advice on experimental drug combinations after her standard treatment failed (not that it should matter, but she never smoked in her life). To those who don’t know her, she’s a sweet, classy and smart as hell journalist and mother of beautiful Maia. The curious can find more about Cathy here and over here.
Update: Cathy passed away this afternoon. And Science Blog is really, really sad about that.
