Leaving this topic alone, nobody deserves that.
G'luck Mrs. Edwards.

| Quote: | WASHINGTON (AP) -- Texas researchers say they have perfected a method to deliver cancer treatment directly into tumors, bypassing healthy tissue.
The study was done on mice, but human trials could begin soon, said Dr. Michael Andreeff, one author of the study in Wednesday's issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
The research team used the benefits of a known anticancer therapy, interferon beta, that can kill cancer cells. In practice, that therapy has proven problematic. It causes toxic side effects and its benefits disappear within minutes of patients getting their shots.
The research team worked around those problems by manipulating a certain type of stem cells to encode the interferon beta gene. The stem cells then move like guided missiles, targeting tumor cells and producing high concentrations of therapeutic proteins within the tumor cells, Andreeff said. |
Think Bush will approve?

I have faith that she will be ok, but the worst part is.. How do you tell your young children? ... My prayers are with her and her family.

I just wonder if any doctors would treat her. Edwards has made a career suing them for no wrongdoing. If I were a doctor, I would turn her away for fear of losing my license.
