Seventy year old Ronald Baker says that "its hard to think about cancer on a growling bulldozer". He was diagnosed with prostate cancer and receives radiation daily, where he says is the only time during the day he thinks about having cancer.

Baker enjoys driving the two ton bulldozer and feels that staying busy is keeping his mind off of his cancer diagnosis and treatments. When he isn't working Ronald stays at Jack's Place, a temporary home for people needing long-term cancer treatments.

Ronald lives with his wife on a secluded ranch in Colorado where he rides horses and takes people on guided hunting trips in the winter. There wasn't a good treatment center available where he lives so he was referred to Jack's Place, a place he could live and find a job to keep busy during his radiation treatments.

Way to go Ronald!

High-profile television and newspaper gosspip columnist Claudia Cohen, most recently a regular correspondent covering entertainment for the syndicated talk show Live With Regis and Kelly, died Friday of ovarian cancer. She was 56.

Known for her aggressive pursuit of celebrity news and her public divorce from billionaire businessman Ronald O. Perelman, Cohen first hit the spotlight in the late 1970s as a reporter and editor for Page Six of The New York Post. She went on to write a gossip column titled I, Claudia for The Daily News of New York, report for Live with Regis and Kathie Lee, and dish celebrity dirt for ABC's The Morning Show.

Cohen is survived by her parents, a brother, and a daughter.

Cancer patients receiving treatment at the Arizona Cancer Center in Tucson will walk through the doors of a new building -- the Fasseas Cancer Center-- beginning tomorrow morning.

The new center, named after major donors Peter and Paula Fasseas, is built on the skeleton of a defunct Tucson hospital. It took 16 months to build and cost an estimated $30 million. And now the comprehensive cancer center is ready for use.

More than 800 cancer patients have appointments during the first week, and 110 medical staff will relocate to the new clinic that has been called the crown jewel of new University Medical Center North Campus and one of the most modern cancer treatment centers in the United States.

The new two-story clinic -- to be joined later by facilities for radiation oncology, ambulatory surgery, imaging services, and a Ronald McDonald House for pediatric patients and their families -- will feature patient support groups, counseling, therapeutic massage, a healing garden, a resource center, and a salon to help patients cope with hair loss and other side effects of cancer treatment.

A formal grand opening for the new clinic is planned for February 18.
