Emily Whitehead the girl whose cancer was ‘cured’ by HIV virus.
seven-year-old girl has become the first child leukaemia patient to be successfully treated by doctors using a disabled form of the virus that causes Aids to reprogramme the immune system.
When chemotherapy failed to work for Emily Whitehead, diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, she underwent a new experimental treatment at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
It involved tricking her immune system into fighting the cancer cells.
Dr Stephan Grupp, Director of the Centre for Childhood Cancer Research at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, told CBS: “We’ve treated the first couple of patients and we’ve been blown away by the results”.
They’ve been very exciting.
“We collect cells of the immune system from a patient, so we use the patient’s own cells. We put in a new gene in those cells that makes the cells go after cancer cells and then we put those cells back in the patient.”

“Remotely located near Penzance in the west Cornish moors is the unique and enigmatic Men-an-Tol stone. Archaeologists suggest that the three stones that comprise the Men-an-Tol are the remains of a Neolithic tomb because various types of holed stones have been found near the entrances to many burial chambers…” It’s a hike to find, and is much smaller than in photos but I spent a whole morning there one day all on my own and never saw another person, it was magic!

Look at this lady - Let us never forget!
The world hasn’t just become wicked…it’s always been wicked.
The prize doesn’t always go to the most deserving.
Irena Sendler
Died 12 May 2008 (aged 98)
Warsaw, Poland
During WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the Warsaw ghetto, as a plumbing/sewer specialist.
She had an ‘ulterior motive’.
She KNEW what the Nazi’s plans were for the Jews (being German).
Irena smuggled infants out in the bottom of the tool box she carried and she carried in the back of her truck a burlap sack, (for larger kids).
She also had a dog in the back that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in and out of the ghetto.
The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do with the dog and the barking covered the kids/infants noises.
During her time of doing this, she managed to smuggle out and save 2500 kids/infants.
She was caught, and the Nazi’s broke both her legs, arms and beat her severely.
Irena kept a record of the names of all the kids she smuggled out and kept them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in her back yard.
After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have survived it and reunited the family.
Most had been gassed. Those kids she helped got placed into foster family homes or adopted.
Last year Irena was up for the Nobel Peace Prize.
She was not selected.
President Obama won one year before becoming President for his work as a community organizer for ACORN
and
Al Gore won also —- for a slide show on Global Warming.
In MEMORIAM - 63 YEARS LATER
I’m doing my small part by forwarding this message.
I hope you’ll consider doing the same…
It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended.
This is being posted as a memorial chain, in memory of the six million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900 Catholic priests who were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved and humiliated by the Nazis.
Now, more than ever, with Iran, and others, claiming the HOLOCAUST to be ‘a myth’. It’s imperative to make sure the world never forgets, because there are others who would like to do it again, and this time, it may be your religious, ethnic, sexual preference or ‘whatever’ group.
A fascinating story.
I am currently seeking an agent/publicist who is willing to work on percentage/contingency.
After doing a review of the posts of female acquaintances and associates on this and three other blogging sites, I feel a need to impart a little bit of my hard earned wisdom concerning relationships.
Please note that I do not condone the negative behaviors listed in any way. Quite the opposite; hence this list.
(1) If he starts a date by looking at his watch or his day planner; you aren’t the only thing on his schedule.
(2) If he gets you to a second date and has quit pulling out chairs or holding doors; he just assumes you are going out whenever he calls.
(3) If you are stupid enough to have sex on the second date; there will likely not be a third. You just gave up your right to demand respect.
(4) If sexual attraction was your only reason for the date; respect is null and void. You saw him as an object and can’t rightly expect better of him.
(5) If you give up secrets about your personal issues any time before you have proven to be in a long term relationship; it is possible and likely he will use those personal issues as a way of making himself look like the “one that tried to save you.” (Relationship martyrdom is your own damned fault.)
(6) If you are of ANY kind of “deviant” or “out of the mainstream” life choices such as BDSM, Bi-sexuality, or simply “liking to watch dirty movies and be spanked;” and you reveal that to anyone you do know for an absolute fact that you can trust with that revelation and he uses it against you…YOU BLEW IT.
More of this kind of advice can be found in my book.
