A friend e-mailed the first glimmers of the following story to me:

It appears that Michelle French, a national team player from Washington State, has also been diagnosed with a blood cancer. The Washington State Youth Soccer Association is raffling off tickets to a Manchester United game to help Michelle with her medical costs. If you want to help with the fundraising, please go to the Washington State Youth Soccer Association website
And if you hear of other soccer players with blood cancer, I'd certainly like to hear. It's something that I want to pursue more when my time frees up again, in hopes of finally putting my mind at rest on whether or not there is a link.
