Cancer is cells that have become dissociated from their common purpose among a diversity of cells. Cancer cells don't attack the body: they don't know about the body, they have forgotten about the body. #cancer

Jeff Bezos: 'Putting the ass in astronaut...'

Wtaf? Though I do feel validated when I have seller's remorse over my recent decision to close my Audible (and Amazon) accounts.

On breast cancer, I find it interesting that mammograms can test negative but a test with a less well known procedure can apparently flag the presence of cancer. Must find out more...

I never really thought that an object so small could have such a profound effect. The little planetoid, #Chiron, passes through the #zodiac, like all the planets around us do. My father’s Chiron is in #Cancer. He’s a Cancer. I can’t imagine that existence. But, I have dates. If you have boomers in your family that were born in these dates, it might be worth having a talk.

Chiron was in Cancer during the following periods:

What #NIH #Layoffs Mean for #Cancer Patients
In the rush of headlines about budgets and restructuring, it’s easy to miss what’s really at stake. But working in cancer innovation and advocacy: when we delay #science, we delay survival. When we dismantle #research infrastructure, people #die waiting. Thousands at #NIH and #HHS were laid off. These were the people running #clinicaltrials, developing new treatment strategies, and pushing promising therapies toward approval.

CANCER MOON SHOT:

AI isn't the answer.

These are some cancers that are associated with Porphyromonas gingivalis., a bacterium that causes gum disease.

These first five seem to be caused by direct infiltration of the bacteria. They are the best documented.
• Mouth and Throat
• Lung
• Pancreatic
• Prostate
• Breast
These are highly associated with the destructive effects of gingipains creating lesions in the tissues that won't heal.
• Stomach
• Colon
• Liver
• Kidney
These are ones I suspect:
Brain- the gliomas seems to start near the molars We know it infects neurons and astrocytes.
Blood- we know it lives in blood cells.
Skin- I think the gingipains get in our injuries and they won't heal. Been there done that.
Lets start with those. Once we prevent them, the processes that cause the others will be easier to discern.
