cancer cells spread to the celiac artery lymph nodes. He will be
receiving 39 days of radiation treatment starting on August 10th.
The tumor cannot be operated because Dominick is still recovering
from his quadruple by-pass surgery on March 12th and is too weak at
this point in time. We are all hoping for the best and that he
recovers fully. UPDATE: Dominick lost his battle with cancer on
September 17th, 2009.
