thass very sad*

I was reading today about those Scientific Researchers who won the Nobel Prize for their Stem Cell Research.

We are finally getting down to the Root Causes on a lot of these Diseases*

Hopefully Cures for All of them that can Benefit All of Mankind will arrive Soon to Help People afflicted with these Debilitating + Life Threatening Diseases*

Two Americans and a Briton on Monday shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for groundbreaking stem cell research on mice that helped establish the role of individual genes in such human ailments as diabetes, heart disease and cancer.

Mario Capecchi and Oliver Smithies of the United States and Martin Evans of Britain were honored for a technique called gene targeting, which lets scientists deactivate or modify particular genes in mice. That in turn lets them study how those genes affect health and disease.

“We’re on the cusp of having a much better understanding of the relationship between genes and disease and how, when genes go wrong, they cause disease,” said Steve Brown, director of the Mammalian Genetics Unit at the London Medical Research Council. “And that’s all down to the techniques that Capecchi, Evans and Smithies developed.”

Although gene targeting uses embryonic stem cells from mice, the research is very different from how stem cells would be used to treat disease in humans. In people, stem cells would be prodded to become replacement tissue like nerve cells for transplant.

The issue of human stem cell research has been polarizing in the United States.

In 2006, President George W. Bush rejected legislation to permit the financing of additional lines of embryonic stem cells - a measure that passed over the objections of Republicans then in control of the Congress. Abortion foes oppose embryonic research because it destroys human embryos.

Capecchi made it clear he did not support the Bush administration’s restrictive policies on human stem cells.

“I think stem cell therapy has enormous potential,” he said. “It’s a crime not to actively pursue it.”

Billy…Thank you so much for the comments you wrote…there are solutions available or at the very least potential for some solutions, but first people need to let go of the “moral” ground that seems to pollute the opinions on so many matters. I appreciate you input a well as the time it took you to compile such information….
Deep down inside I knew you were a closet intellect
Love and Hugs…. Morgan

It was cancer. A month later, he is dead. He was 40 years young with 3 little girls and a wife. He was too young to die. I live each day to the best of my ability and enjoy them as much as I can.

Thanks Bobby….
It’s a tough situation..but she is most definitely in a much better place. It’s those behind now that need to recover…all in all her passing creates a fire in my belly to embrace the life I have and to live it fully.

I firmly believe you’re still here for a reason and the best tribute you can give to those who have gone before is to make your life wonderful and full of meaning.


Thanks Sibba…
I have to agree with you one that one and to also let you know that it is the primary motivation behind all that I do!!!

Thanks Rolando…I’m giving a big virtual squeeze right back at ya!

Our love and prayers go out to your families Morgan.

Thanks Rolando….it’s just sad. I feel bad for my cousin, they have only been married for six years and the past four have been this battle with cancer. I know she’s in a better place..she’s fine. it’s just those left behind I feel the sadness for.
Thanks for your support
