Dee, nice effort, nice song, nice rendition, and a nice cause. Bravo to you. But they've just cured cancer. No one needs to suffer from that shit anymore.

Quote:
Judy - who lives in Florida - had spreading, advanced breast cancer that could not be treated with conventional therapy.
She had tennis ball-sized tumours in her liver and secondary cancers throughout her body.
Judy Perkins had been given three months to live, but two years later there is no sign of cancer in her body.
The scientists screen the patient's white blood cells and extract those capable of attacking the cancer.
These are then grown in huge quantities in the laboratory.
Around 90 billion were injected back into the 49-year-old patient, alongside drugs to take the brakes off the immune system.
She told the BBC: "About a week after [the therapy] I started to feel something, I had a tumour in my chest that I could feel shrinking.
"It took another week or two for it to completely go away."
She remembers her first scan after the procedure when the medical staff "were all very excited and jumping around".
It was then she was told that she was likely to be cured.
Now she's filling her life with backpacking and sea kayaking and has just taken five weeks circumnavigating Florida.

I think its the cure, and I'm really happy about it. I'm just really angry that Trump signed the childhood cancer research bill. I think its reprehensible, despicable, deplorable, and frankly racist. When is he going to be impeached??
