“Doctors remain the number one cause of accidental death in America don’t they?”

birth is the #1 cause of death. ;)

I am old enough to remember the dread that mothers and fathers felt toward Polio and Meningitis, having lost cousins to both. I have been fortunate enough to see those diseases eradicated in my life time. I have every reason to believe that cancer will follow.

Of great interest to my ex-brother in-law. He doesn’t have cancer.

I guess that civil settlement pay-out made by Juwan Howard to the lady he treated should be returned.

Natural Law said: "I have every reason to believe that [cures for] cancer will follow."

My sister-in-law finished her chemo about two months ago. Her latest MRI shows her to be tumor free. She is 78 and her greatest concern is not being able to care for her husband, who was, at least for a short time, suffering fainting spells. A recent family get-together was a very happy affair given the good news.

When a person is nearing 80, an extra year can look pretty good, depending on the presumed quality of life.

"Axel Mescheder, MediGene’s research head, described the case of one very late-stage patient whose cancer had spread to 10 different places around the liver and four in the lungs"

Nothing in the article said anything about the lung tumors.

By all accounts, chemo is very much a blunt instrument.

He could have died from any number of opportunistic afflictions, or sepsis, or staph, or...well, you get the idea.

The lung tumors sound problematic. If even one was small cell, which is inoperable, then I’d say the 12-month delay of death was a pretty good trial.

A lot more work needs to be done, of course, but it does sound promising.

CA....
