It was aptly written about by a reporter with the last name Nano... Okay, its progress. It sounds very promising. I think it could be a sign of the future - taking your own blood and turning it into T cells and then it gets beyond me. But please, its only on THREE people and they still don't have any long term results. As the article states, they need to look at the condition of the patients in one or two years. This is not a cure, it is another in a long series of potential breakthroughs. The problem is all these breakthroughs is that we hear about them now but we have to wait for years to find out if they will work for the general population wi...

Along came breast cancer and its pink ribbons on everything - socks, t shirts, cars, food packaging, store windows, etc. Then the world is bathed in pepto bismol for the month of October (instead of orange and black). Millions wear a pink bracelet. Thousands wear little pink ribbon pins to declare their medical history.And what has changed? Not a hell of a lot. Some companies got rich making a lot of pink crap. Everyone knows what color ribbon stands for breast cancer. Everyone will say the words 'breast cancer' instead of whispering it as a death sentence. Teenage boys can say the word 'breast' with the word 'cancer' without snickering. The world is full of people who know about breast cancer but are sure they will not get it.We are aware of breast cancer thank...

Things keep on looking better thanks to:   having professional help from his aunt: an experienced oncology nurse with medical certification who survived breast cancer  eating health food  doing relaxation  having hopeful spirits  having a very helpful family (thanks Jim as always!)  having a good sense of humor   Although his cancer is under control, Jim’s son is still having a stoma. In other words: victory over cancer doesn’t mean that everything is 100% ok. But father would have loved a stoma and being ab...

Options include the following:   Chemotherapy drugs: These drugs may be used to temporarily shrink the tumor and prolong life, but they do not cure the cancer. Chemotherapy drugs may be injecte...

But love is the best foundation to give the much needed care a terminal cancer patient needs.   Parents love their children and devote lots and lots of their time and energy in raising their kids. The same effort will be needed when you are taking care of a loved one with cancer.   With kids, parents have a dream that they will end up like this or that… when talking about secondary liver cancer your dreams are on hold. The reality is that non of the metastatic liver cancer stories we gathere...

The light causes oral cancer cells to stop growing or self-destruct. The study found a 10-percent increase in cell suicide (apoptosis) and an 80-percent reduction in cell growth. Furthermore, an appropriate dose of blue light therapy will not harm healthy cells. Researchers included Mr. Alpesh Patel, Dr. Jill Lewis, Dr. Regina Messer, and Dr. John Wataha. Mr. Patel, the student whose findings won him the third place in the American Association for Dental Research Student Research Group DENTSPLY/Caulk Competition, hopes that blue light therapy might someday be used with other therapies to treat various cancers and reduce the need for chemotherapy.

But the outcome is clear: too many people die from cancer… Notice how Jessica prays for a cure for all cancers where we take it one step further and pray that people start promoting cancer prevention globally. Just like Jessica we all have been struggling with father’s death as well. For mother the struggle is both physical as emotional: she has torn a ligament due to carrying father around, but after one year that’s more or less taken care of the loss of father is not at all taken care of: sometimes I call her up and I can tell she has been crying… We were told in advance: the doctor who made father’s metastatic liver cancer diagnos...

Now his doctor has confirmed this as well. Ghost Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore Patrick Swayze dirty dancing with Jennifer Grey Death sentence rumours We all have to die sooner or later, it’s just the way it is brought to you that makes a hell of a difference… According to Dr George Fisher, Patrick Swayze has “a very limited amount of the disease and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far”. George appeared to be responding to rumours that the actor was seriously ill and has only weeks to live. Patrick Swayze pancreatic cancer Swayze was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in late...

In fact people can beat brain cancer, and destroy deadly tumors - according to Swapan Ray, Naren Banik and Arabinda Das’ research. Not bad news if you consider that you can pack a proven punch from your workplace! What a watershed for those who look to natural cures!   The discovery showed three types of organo-sulfur compounds proved effective in treating glioblastoma, a deadly form of brain cancer.
