Ill Doctor Back To Jungle Life
London AP Dr Thomas Dooley, a 32 year old St Louis physician, plans to return to jungle hospital work in Laos despite chest cancer. He says he is the happiest man alive and that life he has lived is worth dying quietly in his hometown. He recently had tumor surgery in New York with cancer not yet spreading. He had left Laos last August for treatment and a lecture tour that raised 400000 for Laotian children. He acknowledges bleak prognosis but chooses to return to the jungle.
