By the way, a wonderful genetic breakthrough was on ABC's Diane Sawyers news show this evening It told about a new procedure that enables scientists to remove the bodies own white cells to be genetically reengineered and transfuse them back. It has caused several complete remissions in one form of Leukemia. It was done at Sloan Kettering and NO ONE can sneeze at Sloan-Kettering. I hope we will all live long enough to see this dreadful disease on the ropes, but this is cause for celebration.
I will see if I can find the link. We three all cheered as we watched the show. It is HUGE!!!
Here it is! Leukemia Cure Believed Found in Possible Major Medical Breakthrough | Video - ABC News |
The title tells the whole story: Leukemia Cure? Possible Major Medical Breakthrough. It doesn't say "cure" with an exclaimation mark, it says "cure" with a question mark. First you question a book that was written by an accomplished genetisist and then you change the subject. What does this possible breakthrough have to do with the 50/50 concept of longevity?
