Fisher leaves Jazz over daughter's cancer treatment

漁夫為愛捨爵士

Associated Press

      Utah Jazz guard Derek Fisher was released from his contract Monday to
care for his 10-month-old daughter, who has cancer.

漁夫為了他十個月大、罹患癌症的女兒離開了爵士。

      Fisher and his wife, Candace, said they needed time to search for the
best treatment for their daughter, Tatum.

漁夫伉儷說他們需要時間為他們的女兒Tatum找尋最好的治療。

      "Basketball is not a priority. I don't have plans to retire ... I would
enjoy playing the game, but there are a lot of things to consider," Fisher
said at a news conference Monday.

漁夫在周一說“籃球並非我的優先考量，但我也還沒計畫要退休...我很享受比賽的感
覺，但是有更多事情需要去考慮”。

      Fisher at times fought exhaustion trying to balance basketball and his
daughter's welfare. Once, in May, he spent a day at a New York hospital, then
flew back to Utah for a Western Conference semifinal game against the Golden
State Warriors.
      Tatum was diagnosed with retinoblastoma, a cancerous tumor in her left
eye. The danger is that it could spread to her brain or the rest of her body.
      Tatum's twin, Drew, has no signs of the condition, which is one reason
why Candace Fisher thought the light was reflecting oddly from Tatum's left
eye. The Fishers took her to a few doctors before a pediatrician at the
University of Utah recognized the problem.
      Only 350 cases are diagnosed each year in North America, said Dr. A.
Linn Murphree, director of the retinoblastoma program at Childrens Hospital
Los Angeles, who is not involved in the Fisher case.
      In most cases, patients lose the eye rather than undergo chemotherapy,
but there are exceptions, Murphree said.

下面幾段無關宏旨，我就不翻了。

身為一個教練你對這一點(成就)永遠不會感到滿足，這也是這個職業的悲哀，當你感到
滿足之後你就會不思進取，你不會想要更為進步，這也是為什麼我總是對球員的要求如
此嚴格，我希望他們不斷的做出嘗試，那能夠讓他們成為一個更為傑出的球員。(aly譯)
