Great to hear that you are less! Happy lessing!

Your loving wife

Now dear, If you had just managed to swivel in the chair a half-turn and grab the dictionary with your healthy arm, you might have found out that dreeni is very mundanely just drain in the language of Shakespeare and Milton. And think of all the bad puns you could have gotten out of that one while under influence....

Happy unlumping! I'm sure you wouldn't want to be lumped in with that lump. Prepare for the post-lumpenproletariat existence...

Will you really get more radiotherapy at this stage? I'd have guessed it would just chemo. Well, we'll see!

Really 1030 grams? What was it, iron? Think of a 1000g roast beef.
That's huge, isn't it? Feeds the whole family, and the dogs, too.

Sari2's too shy (imagine *that*, if you will) to write comments, but
she sends her regards, as do I.

jukkahoo

Indeedy it is... WAS (hahahahahahahaaaa!!!) a big lump-o-meat. The size of a man's fist.

Terveisiä Juhalle.

Parempi kasvain kastroituna kuin kilo kainalossa.

Jukka, you can take the magic head gear of now if you like. We did not (yet) inforce it to be a permanent accessory.
Still I can relate to the problem of removing the pirate scarf, if you cannot lift your arms above shoulders ;-)
We'll bring the litl' dogs over next time... (Buah-hah-hah)

Good to hear! And that's some lump that was taken out. Imagine all the extra space to make your innards happier now.

And goddamn I didn't know you were in Töölö hospital, I thought you'd be in Meilahti. I was in Töölö hospital on Sunday, and I could have popped in to say hello.

Read carefully, because I write this only once. CONGRATULATIONS!

Hva gjør du i Norge, Mikael?

Science: Killing Cancer With a Virus


Posted by Hemos on Tuesday November 04, @02:55PM
from the kill-it-dead dept.
just___giver writes "The U.S. National Cancer Institute has just decided to fund multiple human clinical studies to test the reovirus. This naturally occuring virus has a remarkable ability to infect and kill cancer cells, without affecting normal, healthy cells. Here is a before and after picture of a terminal patient with an actively growing neck tumour that had failed to respond to conventional treatments. This tumour was eliminated with only a single injection of the Reovirus. Researchers at Oncolytics Biotech have shown that the Reovirus can kill many types of cancer, including breast, prostate, pancreatic and brain tumours. Human clinical trial results indicate that there are no safety concerns and that the reovirus shrinks and even eliminates tumours injected with this virus. Numerous other third party studies show that the reovirus should be an important discovery in the treatment of 2/3 of all human cancers."

Sari2?? I know Sari2, and she's Jukkas loving wife. So there.

Am bouncing about like a very bouncy thing upon hearing this news. Happy undraining!

jukkahoo

My blood-brother was slightly less than correct in his message. When he said Sari2, he actually meant SARIP2, his loving and delightful companion.

I'm also bouncing, but not as bouncily, since I do have a fair amount of stiches to keep me in shape and they do not appreciate too much of the good thing ie. bouncing.
