Very interesting. Thanks.

And boy are you right, though my wife is 6 years out from cancer, the preventative treatments (since she’s had it three times) are costing us THOUSANDS this year.

Use to be hundreds.

And yes, she is doing great and the stage III cancer she beat 25 years ago. The recent ones were stage I and II.

I am very optimistic.

thats’ great news- they are doing tons with cancer now- I had a recent scare after having pneumonia- there wer spots left on the lungs- docs thoguh it was cancer- I came very close to havign 2/3 of lung taken out- but I asked for a biopsy doen first- just to be sure it was cancer- turns otu there was no sign of cancer cells- and several biopsie samples were taken- Doc was surprised- I was relieved- but they still don’t know what caused the spots- still have a little left- but it’s almost gone now 1 year later-

but it took a few months of testing- it was draining just worrying those months- can’t imagine how draining it must have been for you and your wife to go through having it- Must have been awful

During that time I researched cancer and treatments- and learned even small cell cancers aren’t the horror they used to be- There have been huge advances in treatments-
