More progress being made year by year, folks, although this news was even better than one might have expected.

Hard to understand about the Hispanic data...legal or illegal, rich or poor, there is NO kid with cancer who will not get great care in this country.

R & D. That’s it in a nutshell. And that’s why we don’t want socialized medicine. Let the profit motive work it’s charms.

This is just excellent news for families all across America. A childhood friend of mine died of leukemia, when we were 9, and it was so hard on her family.

Or as I hear from some otherwise lovely folks...

Somehow, some EEEVVVIIILLL folks survived grad school and/or
pharmacy school...and actually took money for all the long days
and nights slaving away at the lab, enduring dead-ends for years
to finally find a cure that might cure a cancer in children.
D-mned robber-baron Big Pharma research grunts!!!


I have to admit, anyone that hasn't endured a graduate program in
biochem/mol. biol./pharmacy...may just not understand that.

And at the same time I admit...CURES COST.
And sometimes some leaches do elevate the cost.
Guys like John Edwards.
And those few sloppy clinicians that made Edward's fortune possible.

Yup. Big Pharma always finding new and better ways to scam the public into thinking that cancer is a real disease and that chemicals not found in nature can treat it. Scoundrels all.
