Today's NYT has two interesting articles about the continuing challenges in the decades long "war on cancer."
Advances Elusive in the Long Drive to Cure Cancer
As Other Death Rates Fall, Cancer's Scarcely Moves
posted by Duane @ 9:38 AM
I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma in late 2003, but it wasn't until after learning about my first relapse in the summer of 2005 at which time I discovered the dozens of inspirational stories of other survivors on the Internet that I decided to make this blog a reality. Since 2007, I've been cancer-free. I hope that cancer survivors and their families will be able to take something from this that will help them in their own journey.

Hey Duane -
Thanks for sharing :) I even commented on the the Advances Elusive in the Long Drive to Cure Cancer article and I never comment on the NYT. I'm a little late to the party though, I'm almost the 300th comment, you should read some of the stupid things people have said. Including some people that said that's how the population stays balanced because when people get cancer they're supposed to die. I hope he gets cancer. Assholes.
Hope you're well.

Hey Kelly,
After reading ur comment, I checked out some of the article's comments and indeed, some are a bit insensitive at the very least.
It's really nice hearing from you. Stay well, friend.
:)
