UPDATE: Good News for Kathryn Joosten

As we reported on September 15th, Desperate Housewives’ Mrs. McCluskey, actress Kathyrn Joosten, was diagnosed with lung cancer. We are now happy to report that the actress is recovering well from surgery to remove the cancer. The tumor was apparently well contained, and was completely removed.

“She’s doing great,” her rep told People magazine. “She’ll be in the hospital
recovering for a few days. And she’ll need to go in for proactive CAT
Scans every few months. But there will be no [need for] chemo, no
radiation.”

Mark Boguski, M.D., Ph.D. is on the faculty of Harvard Medical School and is a member of the Society for Participatory Medicine, "a movement in which networked patients shift from being mere passengers to responsible drivers of their health" and in which professional health care providers encourage "empowered patients" and value them as full partners in managing their health and wellness.
