The Quarterback

After lots of research and consulting with many friends and colleagues, my dad is fortunate enough to have Dr. Timothy Cloughesy, Director of Neuro-Oncology at UCLA, as his lead doctor during this battle.

My mom spoke to many specialists all across the country and Dr. Cloughesy was recommended by multiple individuals. Multiple recommendations from multiple unrelated sources = good bet.

My dad has lots of doctors now, but likes to call Dr. Cloughesy the quarterback because he is calling all the shots.

I've always appreciated having a Dr. Mom, but not until this year have I fully realized and appreciated the benefits. Mags, you best go to med school so we always have one in the family. Jillian, you best remain close friends with Pook.
