|  One of the most enjoyable parts of my job is seeing my patients' progress, even though cancer is a difficult disease. These patients are wonderful to be around. They inspire me in that they are faced with tremendous difficulties and overcome them physically and emotionally. There's something that happens that allows them to deal with life with such grace. My staff and I get so much back from our patients. I cannot imagine doing anything else.
