Just seen an interesting documentary about the breakthrough in Cancer treatments. The programme gives a brief discription on cell division and how doctors think the way forward for treatment is changing due to the Understanding of Genetic (genome) discovery. Anyway I was fascinated by the film showing Cancer Cell division/multiplication, and how the cells get their information to replicate?
It seems quite amazing that for cells in early human formation just after conception, the process is almost identical, cells divide and multiply? Now it seems the same process that brings forth life/birth in our growing mothers womb, is also responsible for a lot of deaths, due to the same genetic instructions?
Cancer victims "Grow" towards an early death by the same process that gave them life. Ironic and sad for some that there is a Time for birth and a Time to die, by the same natural process.
I do think that there is major breakthroughs coming that will relieve a lot of sufferers, and my early sceptic views on the Genome project has been totally reversed having seen some early progress for cancer patients, as a direct result form knowledge gained by Genome project.
