Thanks to everyone.

I did not mean to make this thread about my sister. Just wanted to show how this disease can take anyone at any time.

All we hear in the news is about Swine flue, West Nile, Sars, and Aids ...... yet Cancer is truly the plague of our time.

Get your loved ones regular medical checkups.

Didn't take it that way ---It took my Dad ---Sorry to hear about your sister --God Bless your family

I'm sorry for your loss, zrinkill.

This news about Vesely's work is very encouraging.

I wish them luck.
Wow, zrin. I remember you mentioning her battle. My sincere condolences to your family.
 
I hate stories like this because the research always seems so promising and then you never hear about it again. Hope its different in this case.
 
zrinkill...so so sorry to read this.

Heartfelt condolences...your family here will all surely have you and your loved ones in our thoughts and prayers.

I'm a pretty cynical guy by nature, but this statement here:

"It's mostly funding. They need money to move ahead," Vesely said.

Well lets just say that made me a little more cynical.
 
Not the first time ground breaking stories like this come up, it will disappear like the rest, and we wont' hear of it again. Not because it will be thoroughly tested and found to not work, but because there is simply FAR more money to be had in cancer treatment, than in curing cancer. These people will be bought out along with their research, or simply shut down.

Hate to sound like a conspiracy theory guy, but that **** happens.
 
Condolences Z. Very sorry to hear of your loss. Godspeed and blessings to you and your family. I'm not even employed right now but will make a donation to William's college fund.

Don't you dare apologize for sharing your loss with us... we welcome the chance to offer you a little emotional support, man...

Cancer is what took my Mom, 8 years ago... you don't have to tell me that it's the enemy of us all...
