Ms. Betty Leubner, a 40 year survivor with Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma, passed away last Tuesday. Here is a story about her in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, by Amy Rabideau Silvers:

Here is a link to her patient profile at the TomoTherapy (she was the first head/neck cancer patient to receive this type of focused radiation in 2005) website: http://www.tomotherapy.com/patient/profiles/pt_bleubner/
Please note - ACC wasn't the cause of her death. May we all have 40 years from the date of our diagnosis, and live like Ms. Leubner did.
