I don't know what to say. I am still in shock. My father has been sick for a copy of weeks. He is in the hospital now. We were told today that he has AML. At 83y, the prognosis is not good... 2 years at best. I will write more when I am not in such shock.

I'm really sorry for that. I'm in the same situation. We have to be strong and try to fight against this evil monster.

Take care

it was such a shock to me when i found out that i went to grad school for it..

i am now almost finished with my phd but my father is about 5 hours away from dying and is already unresponsive.

I think i have garnered some good info over these four years..

i can be reached at s6kinase at gmail.com but you will need to know his cytogenetics (FISH) first...

you have to do ALOT of research... there is [url=http://cancerfoc.us]cancer focus[/url] which is google results focused by scientists on cancer...

i personally am going to dedicate my work to optimizing bone marrow transplants. i have decided they are the fountain of youth.

regards,
