Life Story for Douglas J. Parrish

To all Doug's friends and family. In lieu of flowers a fund has been dedicated in Doug's name to the research of Myoepithelial Carcinoma. This rare and aggressive disease is one that few research labs study. Doug's oncologist, Dr. Ping Chi, was inspired by his passion for life and his dedication to science. As such, she has agreed to form a team at Memorial Sloan Kettering to study his cancer. Please donate as generously as possible to get this team working to eradicate this disease. Thank you.
