MORE USEFUL INFORMATION


Linda in the Mountains

I don’t know what you might do with this information, but potentially it is too valuable to simply delete.  The main part of the article introduces an NCI cancer genome data base that might (should?) be useful for cancer researchers.  Lay-persons such as you and I can give this a skip.  However, running down the side is a list of general cancer topics, and if you investigate them you will find that they are meant for us, not the pros.  A few of the topics are: What is cancer?, Prevention, Early Detection, stuff like that.  Maybe just the thing if you’re stuck indoors on the 4th because of foul weather.

  1. Lordy, Lordy, what’s going on? This past week I have 64 “hits” on Myrl’s Blog from the U.S., 10 from the rest of the world excluding Russia – and 106 from Russia! They do this every so often. What are they looking for? Hillary’s emails? A back-door link to Donald Trump? Whatever it is, they are not reading my clever little essays, and they are screwing up my statistics. Bad bear! Cut it out!

  4. More on signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer. Worth glancing through.
