Via Telecopier To: My friends and colleagues From: Dolly Tai-lan Lo Date: March 27, 1995 Re: Discharge from Hospital I am pleased to report that my bone marrow transplant was performed on January 25, 1995, after which I remained in "isolation" for 40 days and was finally discharged from the hospital on March 15, 1995! In the first ten days on the outside, I had to re-learn simple activities such as eating, walking and exercising - all of which are now progressing nicely. I must still visit the hospital every other day for transfusions of blood products as my new bone marrow is not yet functioning normally. Over time, the frequency of visits should decrease and when I no longer require outpatient care, I will be able to return home to Taiwan. My two months in the hospital were the most difficult period I have ever endured - both physically and mentally. Being in isolation was particularly challenging for a socially active person such as myself. Your many notes and letters, inc...

BAKER & McKENZIE MEMORANDUM To: My friends and colleagues From: Dolly Tai-lan Lo Date: August 11, 1994 Re: Update Meanwhile, I am pleased to report that Taiwan's bone marrow data bank has increased from the 20,000 or so donors in December of last year to around 40,000. I wish to thank those of you who have provided financial and logistic support for Tzu-Chi Foundation Bone Marrow Information Center's blood drives, in particular those corporations which have publicized this effort in corporate newsletters. You have each contributed to the growth of the data bank and a number of transplants have already been performed as a result of matching by the data bank! In addition, my many months in the cancer ward of one of Taiwan's largest and most well-regarded hospitals has convinced me that cancer patients in Taiwan are surely in need of positive and sympathetic psychological support. The word "cancer” remains taboo and a recent newspaper report stated that almost 90% of ...

一九九三年年終感言 陸台蘭 今天很高興能回到這裡看看大家。有很多人都勸我不要那麽急著回來，要多休息，甚至想打電話給我先生，讓他勸我今天不要來。但是，了解我的人都知道不用勸我，我一定要來，一定要回來看大家。因為我愛這個事務所，我要告訴大家我的經歷和感想。 當醫生告訴我，我罹患血癌。我問醫生治癒的比率有多高？醫生說僅有百分之五十的機率，並表示其中以三歲到十歲孩童罹患者治癒為多。我回答說：雖然我已經卅八歲，但是只要有百分之五十的機率，我就能贏。我情願我自己罹患血癌，也不願小孩受罪，因為我相信我可以戰勝血癌，一定可以！ 廿八天連續的化學治療（chemotherapy treatment）已把我體内所有的癌細胞都殺光，我也因此瘦了九公斤。這真是最好的滅肥方法，不過我並不打算推薦給大家。 這六週來，我不斷的自我反省，研讀證嚴法師的書，而有深刻的體認。今天是十二月卅一日，老外多在今天對新的一年立志計劃（New Year's Resolution）。我們也應照做，希望我們的事務所能成為台灣最好的事務所及Baker & McKenzie五十多個成員中最好的一個！ 我這過去幾星期的心裡感觸很深，我要告訴大家我們事務所有二個最大的缺點：一個是太多「閒言閒語」；我們的工作已經非常忙碌，實在沒有閒餘的時間及精力去理會或談論一些不必要的瑣事。另一個是「缺乏團隊精神」：不論是律師、法務人員、行政人員、秘書、或小妹，每個人都有應盡的職責，每個人的角色也都很重要。沒有中打、沒有小妹，我們的狀紙絕對出不去；千萬不要認為這個文件是某某律師的事，跟我沒關係。要知道我們的職責是服務客户，客户尋求我們的法律服務，是因為信賴某一特定律師，而不是一個抽象的entity「國際通商法律事務所」。「國際通商」是由我們每一個「人」組成的！在我們事務所裡每一個人都是平等的，不論是律師、法務人員、秘書、行政人員、小妹都一樣。讓我們彼此關心對方，對別人更有禮貌、更友善。要知道友善並不意味著「不精明」。 我誠摯的希望每個人都有更美好的明天，也希望再也没有類似「案件小」或「案件不營養」的抱怨，我們事務所的每個員工都各有功能。千萬別輕看自己，我們絕不是只為了賺取薪水而工作！讓我們共同為我們的「國際通商」的未來而努力、奮鬥！ 最後，我有二句話要奉送大家，那就是：「知足」和「感恩」。每天「知足」，就不會不開心；「感恩」就...
