Gene Therapy

Morning Folks,

I woke up and can't get back to sleep. I think I had 3 hours of sleep so far. My gut is hurting and I have one of these sensitive headaches, one that hurts if the head is moved or touched...just waiting for the pain killers to work now.

At long last my feet are thawing out in my electric induce cocoon of my bed. I had tried that before but it is a hit or miss with it. As for my hands they are still numb...

Elaine taped a bit on the Channel 4 News on a drug called Gendicine. It is showing very positive results but it is only available in China. It seem to be a last ditch attempt for cancer patients worldwide. Treatment is costing $20,000 for two months. The only drawback is that its is not approved over in the west.

I think I am starting to get some sores in my mouth and throat. This is brought on my the dry month syndrome cause by the chemo and my unwillingness to drink to cure that. It is usually last on my mind when I wake up with it and feeling nauseous. But I have to drink as these sores are not fun if they get out of hand. Yes I have started using the oral meds...

Well back to another session of sleep...

Sweet Dreams,

Sai
