From a Washington Post obit by Harrison Smith headlined “Susan Love, surgeon who crusaded against breast cancer, dies at 75”:
Susan M. Love, an indefatigable surgeon, author and patient advocate who spent decades crusading against breast cancer, including as a co-founder of the National Breast Cancer Coalition, a grass-roots group that has aggressively lobbied to increase federal funding for research into the disease, died at her home in Los Angeles.
Her death was announced by her namesake organization, the Dr. Susan Love Foundation for Breast Cancer Research, which said she had recurrent leukemia. Dr. Love was diagnosed in 2012 with acute myelogenous leukemia, a blood and bone marrow cancer.
