"I learned a lot:' said Gloria
Stabryla, assistant nurse manager
of pre-surgical services, who said
the only thing she knew coming
in was that Jewish people don't eat

Friday and Saturday.

Detroit's Dexter area

"Working for faith-based
care has reinvigorated my
service to every one." Zaks
said. "It's like tikkun olam,
repairing the world one per-
son at a time."
A diagnosis of cancer makes most people think of what they can't do. But to us,
the most important part of the word cancer is can. It's confident. It inspires. And it's
driven us to become one of the nation's leaders in cancer treatments. If you're
fighting cancer, you need expertise. Ask your doctor for a referral or you can call
