Ex Cherokee Chief Mankiller Diagnosed with Cancer:

Oklahoma - TAHLEQUAH, Okla. (AP) - The husband of former Cherokee Nation
principal chief Wilma Mankiller says Mankiller has been diagnosed with
advanced pancreatic cancer. Charlie Soap, Mankiller's husband, made the
announcement Tuesday in a news release issued by the American Indian tribe.
Soap says the 64-year-old Mankiller has stage 4 metastatic pancreatic cancer
but offered no other details. He asked that the public respect the family's
privacy. Mankiller served as the tribe's chief from December 1985 until retiring
in 1995. In September, Northeastern State University in Tahlequah named her
as its first Sequoyah Institute Fellow. Mankiller says in a statement that she is
"mentally and spiritually prepared" for dealing with the cancer.




Also, there is a Group on Facebook that I joined that showcases,
and invites folks to submit Native American Photos from all Tribes:
