A recent article in Newsweek, http://www.newsweek.com/id/157548/page/1, details the progress or lack of progress made in "curing" cancer. I invite you to read this article as it is very enlightening.
Although much progress has been made in early detection of cancer tumors, the standard practice is to surgically remove the "known" cells and then treat with chemo and pronounce the patient "cancer free". In fact, there is almost always cancer cells left in the body that remains evasive and surfaces again at a later date.
Dr. Mark Davis' solution to this problems seems to be the first to take a direct hit at the cancer cells without doing extreme harm to the body while taking the treatment.
Clearly there needs to be a "Rethinking" of the War on Cancer. Much support needs to be directed to the work that Dr. Davis is doing. Perhaps someone reading this blog will be able to help direct funding that will allow the clinical trials to be funded on a larger scale and speed up the process. Lives depend on it!
