"Thompson is very likely to require heavy duty treatment, with debilitating side effects, at some point between January 2009 and December 2012. Giuliani is not."

Are you sure YOU'LL be around to see?

No he's not. Marginal-zone B-cell lymphoma is treated with Rituxan, which uses antibodies, not chemotherapy or radiation—it's almost a cancer vaccine. Rituxan is "heavy duty" when it comes to killing cancer cells, but it's not at all debilitating. More like having a mild flu for a day once a week for a month or two. He won't even have to hand over the football to VP Steele.
