Me and Triple O both took a punt on former mayor of Swindon Rex Barnett this year, who was diagnosed with epithelioid mesothelioma last April.

Jesse Ferguson, the communications director for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, has been diagnosed with cancer of the salivary gland at the age of 32. He's taking time off to fight it, and maintaining a blog in the meantime.

Might get a small obit in the Washington Post or New York Times, but nothing overseas.

Alberto Fujimori has been denied a humanitarian release from prison by the Peruvian president. Apparently he doesn't have tongue cancer, isn't terminally ill and is the "best-kept" prisoner in Peru.
