Subject: Mike Seeger Update

This is being passed along for Mary Katherine Adlin
from Folklore Productions
who has been booking Mike Seeger for years.

============ ======

Many folks in the bluegrass world know, or know of, Mike Seeger.
But you may not know that Mike has been undergoing treatment
for leukemia for several years; just recently he was diagnosed
with a new and very aggressive form of cancer,
called multiple myeloma. In the same forthright way
that he has lived his life, he has now made the decision
to discontinue treatment and enter hospice care.
His wife Alexia says that he would enjoy hearing
from friends via cards and emails
which can be sent care of his booking agency:
