<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">Dear Cincinnati Federationists,</font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">I will be leaving in just a few minutes for City Hall, and wanted to be sure that all of you knew why Paul Dressell will not</font></span><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri"> be with us this morning.</font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">In preparation for a planned knee replacement three weeks ago, Paul learned that a lump in his leg was, in fact, a lymphoma. </font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">The knee replacement was off the table and a series of doctor visits was on. </font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">Monday, Paul checked into the luxu</font></span><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">rious 14</font></span><span lang="en-us"><sup><font face="Calibri">th</font></sup></span><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri"> floor of Good Samaritan hospital (yes, I’m joking here!) to begin chemo treatments. </font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">He expects to be there for a week.</font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">I spoke with him yesterday and he sounded wonderful. </font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">A few of us contemplated breaking him out for today’s walk, but decided to share him with the do</font></span><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">ctors instead. </font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">Paul, when you get to your email and read this, know that we love you and will miss you terribly today. </font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">Kick that lymphoma in the buttocks please, and get back to telling us all</font></span><span lang="en-us"> <font face="Calibri">the things we don’t know about NFB!</font></span></p>
<p dir="LTR"><span lang="en-us"><font face="Calibri">When he feels good</font></span><span lang="en-us"> <font face="Calibri">or not</font></span><span lang="en-us"> <font face="Calibri">will fluctuate with the</font></span><span lang="en-us"> <font face="Calibri">chemo</font></span><span lang="en-us"> <font face="Calibri">treatments, but Paul says he welcomes our calls.</font></span></p>
