William “Bill” Jansen, born in 1944, is a self-employed consulting engineer who lives in San Diego, California with his wife Georgene. Bill gets his exercise by playing racquetball, polishing a silver Corvette, and shooting a competition pistol. His two poodles take him for a walk every night. Bill had swollen lymph nodes removed in 1996 and again in 1998. The second pathology revealed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Bill responded very well to radiation therapy in 1998. Under the continued care of Dr. Holman he now “watches and waits.”
