My son has been working on a cancer killing vaccine, because the body`s immunes system does not attack cancer cells, the body thinks it is part of itself, So by removing the body`s immune system and genetically modifying it, then return it to the body it then sees the tumor as a foreign body, it then attacks the cancer. So the body`s immune system kills off the Tumor.
Hopefully this will help a lot of people in the future.

He is also working on a pill to turn back the clock and boost the immune system for elderly people.
The treatment will fight off infections and will make the elderly persons immune system as good as a younger persons.
The immune system declines with age because the Thymus gland stops producing the cells it relies on, called T-Cells
The treatment boosts hormone levels and rejuvenates the gland.
The Thymus reverts to its original form and produces T-Cells again.
Just thought you would like to know that something is being done.
Cheers
Brian.
i think when they crack the DNA code medicine will make a giant leap forward there is and must be a cure for every ailment known to man. i will wright my list out for repair:pjp
Brian i had a letter from the hospital today I'm waiting for an emergency appointment and its been cancelled indefinitely the clinic has shut down and i have to contact my GP tomorrow that's why i have not committed to the meet up in Liverpool i cannot go into detail about the condition yet as a do not know how bad it is i will pm you after waiting three months it is a bit of a shock to get the news? that's all i can say at the moment it was a emergency appointment too ?jp
Hi John
You now have the choice of hospitals, you can get your Doctor to fix an appointment anywhere you want to. Any where in the Country. So find one that specialises in your condition and go.
How about the Dreadnought Seamens Hospital in St Thomas Hospital facing Westminster, Excellent Harley Street Specialists. Fast track, no waiting
I do not go to my local hospital anymore, BOLTON ROYAL HOSPITAL, I do not like the way they perform. So my Doctor arranges for me to go to Salford Royal Hospital which has a superb reputation.
Dont hang about, tell your Doctor tomorrow and find a Better place to go to.
Hope you get the right treatment, Do not take any crap from them , remember they are your servants.
Cheers
Brian.
Neville mate, thanks for that bit of info it gives me added hope of a long and lasting recovery. But I was told that early dectection and appropriate action is the key to success.Quote:

There were six families all waiting to be re-housed after all the war damage done to housing. There was a playing field at the back of the property and many of the kids would go there to play. A young girl by the name of Quanita, will never forget that name, befriended me. One day she asked if we could play mummys and daddys.
Being naive at that time i agreed. We both took off all our clothes and she lay on the ground. She then told me to get on top of here and jump up and down just like daddy does with mummy.
It was years later when I again thought about it and concluded this could have been avoided. Had the parents smeared the bedroom door handle with vaseline she would not have been able to open it and see what was going on. Oh the innocence of youth.
Hiya Des, I also have an implant every three months called Zolodex but mine is not as big as a pea. The nurse just rubs some antiseptic on my stomach (good job I've got a bit of a gut) and in it goes, it is a little painful but it is over in seconds. I have had it for two years now but my regular nurse has emigrated to Canada and her replacement nurse isn't so gentle.:(Quote:

Now lads I have a bit of a dilema and need some advice. I recieved a letter from the hospital, a general letter, telling me to present my self there next Tuesday for ' Trial of Void'. At first I wondered who the hell is Void and why is he on trial in a hospital. Then I realised it is to remove the 'monster' that has for the past three weeks been my constant companion day and night. This bloody Catheter and leg bag. Will not miss it I can assure you. The letter went on to say,as I will be there for up to 8 hours bring additional clothes in case of accident, understandable, reading material and maybe some knitting!
Now this is where I need your assistance, if I have to trake some knitting with me should it be a scarf or a pullover?
