Technology and Cancer, really useful

Random of random, I flew to Salt Lake City yesterday because a close friend of mine who has been diagnosed with cancer is not doing too well. He is drugged up on morphine right now so I thought I would take the opportunity to blog about technology. Nestled in the beautiful Wasatch mountains, the Huntsman Cancer Center is the place to go for cancer in the Northwest. Patients receiving platelets (spelling? i'm not the cancer pro just yet) can sit in a recliner and watch any cable network on their own personal recliner. A computer lab is situated on every floor so that patients, families, and friends can keep others informed or play a game of online bridge. Moreover, your health records from any Utah (most states have or are jumping onto this program) medical center can be accessed through this really cool program. This helped so that when Judd, my mohawk-wearing friend who happens to have cancer and hair, was admitted here a few months ago, his records were immediately available. Pretty cool stuff. I know where to go if I get cancer.
