A QUICK STORY ABOUT EPOH?

“Dr. William Bucholz tells the story of overhearing two physicians discussing a paper they were to deliver at a national meeting of cancer specialists.

One was complaining bitterly, “I don't understand it, Bob. We use the same drugs, the same dosage, and the same schedule of treatment. Yet I get a 22 percent recovery rate and you get a 74 percent recovery rate. How do you explain that?”

The other responded, “We both use Etoposide, Platinol, Oncovin, and Hydroxyurea. You put those letters together and tell people that you are giving them EPOH. I put them together and explain to them that they are receiving HOPE. I emphasize that they have a chance."

- From the book “Head First” by Norman Cousins

AND NOW… ERMA BOMBECK AND THOMAS EDISON

“When I stand before God
at the end of my life,
I would hope that
I would not have
a single bit of talent left
and could say,
“I used everything you gave me.”

- Erma Bombeck (1927-1996)
American humorist

The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.”

HALL OF FAME ADVICE

“Willie Stargell, the legendary Pittsburgh Pirate baseball player, was once asked to share the secret of his success.

Stargell answered by saying that just before a ball game starts the umpire
yells out, “Play ball.”

Stargell always followed the umpire's advice.

He said that he never went to the ball park to work.
He always went to the ball park to play.

Don't work ball . . .

PLAY BALL!”

- This philosophy helped Willie Stargell
make it to the Hall of Fame.
