Cancer survivor Jims fight turns to faith and hope
Jim Jr endured 10 chemotherapy cycles over 10 months with his parents by his side. After remission in 1981 and a relapse in 1982, an experimental VP16 drug at Indiana University helped turn the tide. Costs surpassed 100000, mostly covered by insurance and Hill Burton aid, with care from Mercy nurses and Rev. Charles Mehaffey guiding a positive outlook.
