Stronger is less pain. New hope. More fight. Its doing everything in your power. And everything in ours. Stronger, is changing even faster than they do. Because we dont just want your kids to grow up. We want them to grow up stronger. Lapook cancer has plagued humankind from our very beginning our timeline comes from jane pauley. Pauley when life began, so did cancer. Prehistoric animals have cancer. In humans, you can find signs of cancer in ancient specimens. Scientist Siddhartha Mukherjee calls cancer the em pore other of all maladies unhis prize winning history of the disease. Around 400 bchippocrates is says to have first gun it a name. Karkinos. What was it chosen . The word comes from crab, and there were something about tumors as they sent their fingers or fingerlings into the body. They look like the legs of a crab sort of dug underneath the sand. But the earliest preference can can found thousand years earlier. As for treatment, it says, there is none. In fact, its not until the arrival of anesthesia in the mid 1th century that surgery became a viable option. Could open up a human being. And sew that human being up again. It was amazing. Pauley how many labs are there around the world doing Cancer Research . I would say hundred. Pauley he conducts research and treats patients at new Yorks Columbia University Medical Center says by the beginning of the 0th century Xray Technology would give rise to the very earliest form of radiation treatment. The use of toxic chemicals to kill cancer cells was called common therapy was a 1940 os. The dream was to invent a chemical that would kill the cancer cell but spare the normal cell. The problem is that cancers evolve out of normal cells. They are very close cousins. This woman has cancer. Pauley still given potential therapies were as often as fearsome, even shame. When my mother was surviving cancer it was literally unspeakable. Yeah. Pauley what changed that . You couldnt shove it under the carpet any more. We saw our children dying from it. We saw our parents dying from it. It had to be a public word because otherwise we couldnt have a conversation. How can there be a war on something you cant nail what drinks us to 171, when president Richard Nixon did in fact declare war on cancer. I sent a message to the congress the first of this year which provide for a National Commitment for the conquest of cancer. The war on cancer grew out of a particular optimism around cancer. Remember that human beings had it was very doable. Pauley that was premature. Key was the realization that a patients genes could in effect be calling the shots. What tells us a cell to stop growing or start growing in the first place . The idea that sitting at the center of the puzzle was genes. You had a framework to understand cancer jane once researchers began to understand cancers mechanisms. More clues started to fall into place a. Human genome project completed in 200 led to development of still more treatment among them, individually targeted immunotherapy techniques. And where are we in the timeline or the arc . The problem remains how do you target, how do you kill the cancer cell while sparing normal cells, that was a puzzle in19 1920. The puzzle in 1970. Pauley but there are more tools now . Many more tools. The immunotherapies are in earliest stages. The effort to unlock the secret within the human immune system is already offering new hope for patients for whom traditional treatments have fallen short. What happened to her seems like a miracle. Youre feeling how . Feeling great. He feel like i can could do anything. Back when she was just 9 shes was taken a hospital on long island where doctors gave her a diagnose she barely understood, leukemia . Am i going to die . Am i going to be able to do the stuff i did before . 98 of respond well to chemotherapy. But after four brutal rounds, her cancer was getting worse. It was very scary. A natural reaction to to think, why me . I was like, what did i do bad so that god could give me this punishment. Desperate and out of options shed that one last chance. She was enrolled in a Clinical Trial at memorial Sloan Kettering cancer. How is everybody . Good. Lapook after six weeks, the Pediatric Oncologist couldnt find a single leukemia cell. Not one. What did you think . I thought this worked. Lapook in a patient who basically ten years ago would have been told theres nothing we can do . Yes. Just a little puff foo from steroid becaus new frontier in the war on cancer. I am if you mu know therapy. To find and kill cancer cells. One of the Biggest Challenges in fighting cancer has been that cancer cells find ways of becoming invisible to the bodys defense and the immune system cant kill what it cant see. Doctors taught her immune system to see. They took billions of her white blood cells, cells that are normally are good at destroying invaders like bacteria, turn them into cancer killers. We can modify them, teach them how to fight cancer and in fuse them back into the patient. Like blood hods. Exactly. Go. Lapook traditional therapies like chemo and radiation often damage healthy tissue along with cancer cells. And better at issue but there have been serious side effects even death. Once we knew it could work, weve been working around the clock. Lapook at the National Cancer institute. In 1984 he was the first doctor to cure a dying patient using her own immune system. These are immune cells. Lapook but also be the first to tell you that all these years later immunotherapy is tell in its infancy. Weve gotten to the point now where i think we understand why the patients who are successfully treated experience tumor regression. Based on that knowledge, i think were going to see dramatic progress in the next few years to come. Lapook but most patients dont have years to wait. Lungs are somewhat compromised. Yeah. A sarcoma. Normal lung would be black. These are all abnormal tumors. He has many hundred of different tumors. Lapook he has already been through two round of chemotherapy. He came to us as do all of our patients, having exhausted what modern medicine can offer. And our goal is not to practice todays medicine but to create the medicine of tomorrow. Lapook and that would be immunotherapy. Just as was done with ezzy, his white blood cells were taught to recognize. A month plater he gets back his juiced up cells, 0 million of them put into battle. Definitely feeling very hopeful. Lapook now hes waiting to see if those cells did their job. The highly personalized treatment is still only available in Clinical Trials. But theres another type of immunotherapy thats available now in hospitals across the country. Fad approved drugs called check point inhibitors are being used to fight certain types of cancers. With especially positive results for melanoma. While effective treatment for widespread cancer remains illusive, they are at least on the right path. Right now in the spectrum of cancer treatment, what percentage can be addressed by immunotherapy . If you look at all Cancer Patients, perhaps 10 can be helped by immunotherapy today. But its Getting Better every day. Lapook last tuesday he returned to the National Cancer institute for a first check up. I just have that comfort in terms of ive done everything i can. Good to see you. Just hoping that we get results that were seeking in this. Weve gone over the xrays very carefully. We compared them to the xrays that you had before we started the treatment. And there was, as you know, rapid growth of the tumor. But thats been completely arrested now. The current xrays are absolutely stable. No evidence of any growth. So thats good news. We want to see these tumors go away. Sometimes that takes time. Cancer patients deserve optimistic doctors. Lapook for now, patients like ezzy remain the exception. But doctors are hopeful and continue to explore the boundaries of this new frontier. One previously incurable patient at a time. Youre lying in bed at night thats going through your head . That the good thing is that im still alive. That i could live a normal life again. This is the main entrance. Lapook coming up, cancer clusters. But grandma, we use charmin ultra soft so we dont have to wad to get clean. Charmin ultra soft gets you clean without the wasteful wadding. It has comfort cushions you can see that are softer.

Lapook Susan Spencer will be sampling some of them through the course of the morning. Behold if you dare the death stalker scorpion. The venom can kill. Not much here to love unless your dr. Jim olson. This sound terrifying. Its beautiful. Because the death stalkers venom may revolutionize how cancer surgery is done. Dr. Olson is a brain cancer physician and researcher at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in seattle, washington. We were inspired by a 16yearold girl who had a brain tumor after 12 hours of surgery, piece. We decided to find a way to make the cancer light up so the surgeons could see it. The key is a scorpion venom synthetically reproduced. It sticks to cancer cells but not to normal cells. Combine that sticky molecule with florescent dye you have tumor paint. What problem does it solve . Sometimes its hard for surgeon to tell what is cancer what is normal. In the brain you cant take out a big chunk of normal. Tumor paint distinguishes the difference between brain cancer and normal brain in all of our experiments that weve done so far. Check out this image of a tumor. Did they get enough margin. I couldnt even tell but inject tumor this is definitive. I can see why youre excited. Im thrilled. Youre turning nature up sight do you understand. Thats exactly what were doing. Sounds like signs fiction but it could be an fda approved reality as soon as 2019. I think this will be the biggest improvement in cancer surgery maybe in 50 years. God bless Israeli Death stalker scorpion. They are the ones that motivate us. Or here. Even here. And definitely here. At fidelity, were available 24 7 to make Retirement Planning simpler. We let you know where you stand, so when it comes to your retirement plan, youll always be absolutely. Clear. Its your retirement. Know where you stand. One of many pieces in my life. So when my asthma symptoms kept coming back on my longterm control medicine. I talked to my doctor and found a missing piece in my asthma treatment with breo. Oncedaily breo prevents asthma symptoms. Breo is for adults with asthma not well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Breo wont replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. Breo is specifically designed to open up airways to improve breathing for a full 24 hours. Breo contains a type of medicine that increases the risk of death from asthma problems and may increase the risk of hospitalization in children and adolescents. Breo is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Once your asthma is well controlled, your doctor will decide if you can stop breo and prescribe a different asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Do not take breo more than prescribed. See your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. Ask your doctor if 24hour breo could be a missing piece for you. At mybreo. Com. Lapook what does it mean when a rare cancer strikes several people in the same area. Cancer clusters. What do you think that the contamination is moving . We know its moving. Dr. Thomas sherman is on the hunt for a killer. Where is where the landfill is. Hes heading a task force investigating why several children in the region of New Hampshire developed rare cancer. The cancer that took the life of paul thomas 14yearold son, sam. Its something missing in your life. It will always be there . And paul and his life sin in your head youre like, why are there three case that you can go off the top of your head, in the seacoast area . New hampshire says its a cancer cluster. Which the centers for Disease Control defines as greater than expected number of cancer case that occurs within a group of people in a Geographic Area over a period of time. And while that definition may be black and white, it turns out that almost Everything Else is anything but. State Health Departments get an average of a thousand reports of alleged clusters every year, but historically only a handful are ultimately recognized as true residential cancer clusters. One of those is the 1980s case of woburn, ms. Mass, a story told by the book and movie a civil action. More than 20 case of leukemia in contamination of the water supply. How hard is it to figure out if something really is a cancer cluster . Ive asked that before, extraordinarily difficult. Toms river, new jersey, is another. A section of niagara falls. The infamous love canal case in upstate new york. Investigators have to consider several factors including how often cancer occurred. How long it took to develop. Whether genetics might play a role. Cant be a coincidence. I think people have a hard time understanding that some time. There are random patterns and things can happen because of chance. When it comes to the seacoast san tore lust sneer. They have incredible challenge. This is the main entrance. So far dr. Sherman and others are focusing their questions on this old closed landfill where they say the military and others dumped toxic waste. New hampshire Officials Say they have found chemicals used to make commercial products. But they say theres no proof they are linked to the suspected seacoast cancer cluster. Every time we find something it generates a bunch more questions. Those responsible for the landfill deny theres any connection. But the an answer. The cancer is out there. I think that has to be looked at. So that sams death is not in vein. Give extra. Get extra. My swthis scarf all thatsara. Left to remem. What she washed this like a month ago the long lasting scent of gain flings lapook singer sheryl crow. Lapook for women who have has mastectomies, what to do next is increasingly a matter of choice. Erin moriarty takes what we caution is a candid look. My name is debby bowers. I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Cancer is not just a killer. I was diagnosed in 2009 with Breast Cancer youve had a double mass tech comow. Each of these women in age from 34 to 51. Its a loss. You learn to deal with it. Its how these women chose to deal with their loss that is sparking conversation. Fair warning, some of these images are graphic. They call it going flat. Instead of replacing their curves with surgical implants these women are embracing their scars, even bearing them publicly. I never saw anybody like me. I never heard about anybody like me. Where are you people . I dont get it. Ive never met a flat person before. Where are you . That was how melanie felt six years ago when she chose not to have Reconstructive Surgery or wary moveable breast forms forms. For me, i just dont want to present two bodies. I dont want to walk out then turn to my home and remove my breast then have a flat body. I didnt choose to go flat. It chose me. Marion says that within she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I wanted what i had. She went from breast surgeon to Plastic Surgeon the same day. They did a beautiful job. I was very happy with them. But she one of the estimated 20 according to doctors who suffer side effects had infections. It was just, lets get them out. Its a myth. Theyre going to pop em in, going to be fine. Its a myth. Another myth they say is that reconstructed breasts will feel just like the real thing. They will feel like regular breast to somebody else who is touching them. To a man. Or whatever. They dont feel like real theres no sensation. On the other hand, samantha says after going in the she gained sensation. In terms of sexuality, scars are very tender things, there is feeling in my chest. Its still an erogenous zone. Which doesnt happen with implants. Its this foreign thing. When you just have a scar there, when you take a shower, when you look in the mirror isnt that a continual reminder that you had cancer . Well, of course it is. Its the map of who we are. I dont want to forget what ive done and what ive been through. Still, more than half of female Breast Cancer patients, nearly 60 who are offered Breast Reconstruction take it. I think that for us as surgeons we feel that if were going to take ad with apart off we should something that looks just as good. Dr. Debra axelrod is a surgeon at new york universitys Cancer Center. She says reconstructive surgeries have greatly improved. Yet she agrees that looking good can have some unexpected drawbacks. You know, if youre a stomach sleeper its like sleeping on a frisbee. I do. Its the image of our bodies. We want to be whole. Beauty is something in the mind, in the heart. These women hope to change that perception. Were just as much women as we were beforehand. Theres a growing awareness and acceptance of Going National gym, a recent fashion show and the websites that offer stories, selfies and a sisterhood. What its done for all of us, we cant even express. Youre emotionaly . I it was about the friendships that weve made. Incredible friendships. Friendships that have helped each woman accept what they have lost and also what they have gained. I love my body. I love my body more than i ever have before. I see the strength. I see the strength of my conviction. I am not doing that to my body. My body is good enough. How did you march about this . Lapook best prepared. Y28cny ywty i use whats already inside me to reach my goals. So i liked when my doctor told me i may reach my blood sugar and a1c goals by activating whats within me with onceweekly trulicity. Trulicity is not insulin. It helps activate my body to do what its supposed to do release its own insulin. Trulicity responds when my blood sugar rises. I take it once a week, and it works 24 7. It comes in an easytouse pen and i may even lose a little weight. Trulicity is a onceweekly injectable prescription medicine to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise.

Ask your doctor about onceweekly trulicity. Want to take a walk . Meet zoe. Shes eight years old, full of heart and these days does pretty well on only three legs. This has not slowed you down. Doctors had to amputate one of zoes front legs also fall when she was diagnosed with life threatening bone cancer. Dogs get cancer. The most common reason for a today zoe and fellow great dane murphy are part of a new study which may help people as much as their dogs. Its the pet project of veterinarian sheryl london a researcher at tufts Medical Center and dr. Catherine janeway at dana farber boston childrens Cancer Center. Were trying to understand cancers in dogs. Then apply those to humans. The mu traiks cluster. This growing field is called comparative consoling. To find a cure. It puts the whole idea of dog being mans best friend in a completely new light. Nobody would think of them at volunteers in a Clinical Trial. May save theirs. Right. Oncologist janeway treats the same type of bone cancer in children that london treats in dogs. Osteocar so ma. Three or four decades since weve had a new approach thats worked. How is this any better than using the traditional model of the mouse in the lab . Mice dont have an immune history like you and i do. They are kept in cages. Dogs bet exposed to many different antigens. Exposed to a lot more. On the left is a picture of a human leg bone. Os cocar so ma in kids and dogs. Is similar. The ultimate goal here. Very promising new drugs. Might come in zoes lifetime. It will still have her paw prints all over it. Just want to help, right . Just trying to help. Lapook come up.

I need to you sit. When we first met rdie she seemed like typical healthy 4yearold. Whats that . A stethoscope. Youd never know shed just been to hell and back. There you go. At six months old she was cancer of the nerve tissue with tumors unher spine and belly growing out of control. Chemo and surgery werent working. Doctors threw a hail marry pass gave her an experiment mall drug that turned off the specific gene. She says it taked awful but in less than a month her cancer was totally gone. Shell be coming round the mountain when she comes today at home in south carolina, edies almost eight and still cancer free. Parents nick and emily are of course over the moon. How much medicine is she on . Shes not on anything right now. Nothing. The good news is that a little girl survived pediatric cancer. Daddy better news is that its happening more often. Are we beating Childhood Cancer . Were making certain Childhood Cancers that we hadnt envisioned five years ago. Dr. Peter add womanson at the Childrens Hospital of philadelphia head up the nationwide childrens oncology group. Lets start with the most common Childhood Cancer. The 1960s a child with all had less than 10 chance of being cured. The same child born today has close to a 0 chance of being cured. So thats dramatic progress in a relatively short span of history. If theres a downside to saving childrens lives its that most young cancer survivors are in for problems down the road. So a kid survives but still has consequence for the rest of his or her life . Thats right. We have children who as teenagers require hip replacements because of our treatment. Then there are number of children who by the time theyre in their 50s, early since more adults get cancer than kids theres Less Government Research Money for Childhood Cancer cures, far less. The estimate from the National Cancer institute is about of their budget goes to studying Childhood Cancer. Why is that so small . There some are who believe this we solved the Childhood Cancer problem. We havent. Were curing children today that ten years ago we knew we couldnt cure. That only comes through research. Thank you. So a large chunk of pediatric Research Money comes from private charities. One of the bigs was started by a young Cancer Patients, alex scott. Who raised Research Money by selling lemonade. She died in 2004. This reporter included raised more than a hundred Million Dollars to bankroll new treatments like the one that saved edies life. The people at northwestern mute call life insurance, who were already big contribute turnovers childhood Cancer Research, were apparently moved by her story. Look at this. They even built a float in her honor for this yours rose parade in pasadena. A giant floral sculpture of a blonde former cancer patient just being a little girl again. How did you feel about all of this . Im very lucky that they made that medicine because if they didnt milwaukee that medicine i would be in leaven. And thats something her parents thank heaven for every day. Had been rushed to the icu and i left the hospital that afternoon. I looked in the rear view and i saw edies car seat empty. And i remember that there are people that leave the and they dont get to, you know, put their child in that car seat ever again. When we left the hospital, she came with us. She left with us. You know, its a big, big thing. At just six months old broccoli, kale. Lapook ahead. Cabbage. Lapook does diet make a difference. Most of timeno pets. Cant work that way, no. Sweetie mom there are bumps along the road of life. And for each one theres triplea. Stop lapook weve got some food for thought. Chef eric levines eureka moment about healthy food came with his fifth cancer. Hes beaten cancer five times. Ostrich. That moment came on the best and worst day of his life. Hours raid occasion barely able even to stand up he competed on the Food Network Show chopped. In the middle of it i had a moment of clarity, i would kin this competition. I could beat cancer. You are the chopped champion. He did win. But his doctor told him, change the way you eat or die so far hes lost 65 pounds. The relationship of food and health and wellness, its massive. I didnt get it. Now he wants everybody to get it. He sneaks healthy dishes like this stuffed acorn squash on to the menu at his restaurant. Jammed down your throat. I will make this at home. What Cancer Patients eat matters. You prepare meals on days when youre feeling well. Mary eve brown is an oncology dietitian at Johns Hopkins universities. Its been reported that two out of three people when they shop up at this very first oncology appointment are suffering nutrition tally. How did that go . Terrible. Because he was so under nourished jacks chemotherapy session had to be cancelled. Any time we hold treatment that has impact on survival. Thats how powerful nutrition is during your cancer treatment. So, is there evidence that food can actually cause cancer . Theres a relationship between high fat meats and certain types of gut cancers. Theres even a bigger body of evidence about obesity and cancer. Female cancers, pancreas cancer. I like to say eat the rainbow. Variety of colorful vegetables. Ha is the power of prevention. Dr. Margaret om produced a document ear and a book both called a World Without cancer we took a spin around her local supermarket. The qualities of the vegetables and fruits are those elements that are going to help us reduce the risk of cancer, diabetes and other diseases. So says, cuomo, but there is some debate about the patrol of specific foods in cancer prevention, even organics. Still shes a believer and says consider organic. But if you gasp at the price. Bias much as you can afford. Its important that you eat the vegetable. Thats the important thing. So if you cannot get them organic you are going to eat the vegetables regardless. Here is something you may not have thought about. We want to keep the periphery of a supermarket because the healthier foods are going to be with fruits and veggies, like to may toes, peppers, oranges. Broccoli, kale, collards. And try green tea. Is known to have catechins has ha powerful anticancer effect. What does all that look like on your dinner plate . You. Want two third that have plate to be consisting of vegetables, whole grains, and fruits. With one third of it protein. That protein can be a bean, can be black beans, chick peas, lentils, it can be a lien protein like fish or poultry. What do you say to people who say, i hate all that stuff. Learn to like it. Its good for you. Lapook still to come. Sheryl crow. My gynecologist called and said, there is no six months. Its in vasetive. Lapook and in the warm wet tongues. The video that is no game. An.

Here again is dr. Jon lapook. Lapook topping the charts with hit cons is wong side of sheryl grow. Redding her knowledge about early decks is another. She talks about that and more with rita braver. This is where were used to seeing sheryl crow. Every day is a winding road. On stage with a guitar in her hand. Getting a little bit closer. But she says shes equally at home here. Come right this way. Bring you into the program room. Demonstrating how she gets an annual mammogram or breast xray. Were going to top to bottom view and than a side view. A subject t whispered about. Going to bring the machine up here. Women didnt speak about their breast. It was so taboo. I feel like im in a rarefied position in that i have a very large fan base of women. And those women they have got teenage girls now, just great to at least stay on top of your own health. She makes no bones about being a paid spokesperson for hologic which makes 3d imaging machines for mammograms. It can be a difference between a real harsh treatment or something that is early and is ultimately a cure. Crow has reason to understand the importance of early detection. In 2006, you discovered that you had Breast Cancer, how did you even learn that you had it. A routine mammogram, an inopportunity time, right before was in turmoil. Also thing i wanted to do was go have a mammogram. The did. Come back in six months, we see something thats suspect. My gain cool cyst ged, theres no six months, you dont wait. Lets go get a second opinion, lets get a kneeled biopsy it was in vasetive. You are young, telling you you have breast canister. I do. Like one of those things where all of a sudden, everything is swirling. Well do lumpectomy. Youll get on with your life. It was a life that sheryl crow had worked hard to build. Raised in kennett, missouri she worked assayed School Music Teacher a after college. But she add a gig singing commercial jingles. In and out ham burr everythings all about.

Com lapook a game for joel is a different sort of video game. Its one familys heartfelt tribute to a lost son. And a reminder ben tracy sells us you how far the fight against cancer has yet to go. Was she with someone else . Its homework time in the greenhouse hold just outside of denver. And ryan and amy greens Kitchen Table is definitely full. You want to cut this . Wait. Let me finish. When you look closely at the pictures on their refridge traitor you realize its not nearly as full as it should be. I know people sometimes will not want to bring him up because they dont want to make us sad. But a lot of ways wed rather be sad remembering him than have a day pass where we dont think about him. Their son joel was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in 102010. The tumors left at first the treatment was working. Like they told us he had four months to live. We were a year and a half past that day. We were seeing this miracle. We thought like, we got to tell people. What does joel love . Wa wa in cups. And warm wet tongues and the cool fur of daz. Ryan is a video game developer so he and his team created a different sort game they called it. That dragon cancer. Do you want to rock . There we go. The impressionistic game chronicles goal joels battle with the cancer and the emotional ups and downs. We should move forward with the radiation. It freaks me out. Could be another m contemplation than competition. While you can make joel laugh. And comfort him. Im sorry, guys, its not good. It is often painfully hard to play. You are there when the greens learn joels rstumoav he returned. Any recurrence means chemotherapy has failed. There are times when you cant stop him from crying like when he is dehydrated and inconsolable after another round of chemotherapy. The first thing we ever created for the game was retelling of the night that i spent in the hospital with joel. It was one of the hardest nights of my life. As a father being unable to do the very thing that i prided myself on, right, which is bring comfort to my children. Its so late, joel, lay down. I cant hold you. I cant make you feel better. Shhh. We both keep using the word game. It just seems like such an odd term. I would say, no, its not a game. But there are games in it. Its not about fun but there are moments when you have fun. Life is a mixture of the sorrowful and the jowlful and the you know, weeping and playing and praying and so, i hope that its a reflex of our life, you know, in the form of a video game. Joel lived beyond all expectations. Yet the miracle story these parents thought they were telling ended in 2015. He was five. When he died, the game became our focus. Our grief and in missing him, we all rally around fin usualing the game. You within from caring for joel to making everybody compare about joel. That dragon cancer became a phenomenon in the gaming community. Theres a very intense drive as parents to want your children to have some impact on the wor world. And when you have a child that dies, thats one of the things that you mourn maybe the most, is that all of the dreams you had for them, dont happen. In creating the game i think a lot was desire to make sure that joels life impacted the world. In the final scene of the game, joel is surrounded by all of the things he loved. Puppies, bubbles and pancakes, he can finally see and speak. I love bubbles. Look, i can catch one. He was this fun, delightful boy. So the idea that whatever heaven looks like and whatever he is experiencing he would be full delight makes sense to us. burke at farmers, weve seen almost everything, so we know how to cover almost anything.

Lisa mann was readying for a double mass tech comey when she consulted drift laura essermaan. Highly treatable. For years, the conventional cancer aggressive. But the doctor, a Breast Cancer surgeon and oncologist at the university of california San Francisco is part of a new medical movement, urging patients to hit the pause, not the panic button, when they get a Breast Cancer diagnose. Were assaulting by this, find it first, get it out, thats how you live. But we really need to change that whole framework. People say, i can find cancer when its one cell. I said, please, dont. Because we dont need to know that because thed with eye may take care of it. Theres a lot of things that thed with eye takes care of. Virtually no one questions the value of screening to find cancers. But the debate about when or if to treat those cancers is getting louder. When we initially started to screen for Breast Cancer we were looking for small, invasive cancers. With the idea that if only we really dramatically reduce the chance of dying of Breast Cancer. The problem is, the people who have the very low risk conditions dont need the treatment and by over treating them, you are not improving peoples chances of survival. A group of medical resystemmers concluded that of over 2,000 women screened one will avoid dying of Breast Cancer, but ten women will be treated unnecessarily. Dartmouth professor dr. H. Gilbert welsh tracks cancer survival rates as screening has improved. Ironically the more overdiagnosis that a Screening Test does, the more popular it becomes. There are more people who feel they are survivors because ever screening. Although it happens to be a cancer that was never going to bother them. They will never know that. He says for Thyroid Cancer screening sent the number of new case rate remains virtually unchange. For prostate Cancer Screening peaked in the 19 0s but the death rate barely changed. Were moving towards the observation. An anologist and president of the Christus Santa Rosa hospital in san antonio. If im the patient sitting across from you the thing that you would have the hard time persuading me is, its okay to live with cancer in your body. Is it okay . Well, most of us have cancer in our body. So thats the first thing. In fact some prostate cancers are so slow growing that a man will likely die of other causes. And aggressive treatments carry their own dangers, a biopsy risks infection. Surgery, even worse. Can lead to sexual dysfunction. Afterwards. Medications may not work for the potent see that can affect marital relationships. Radiation and surgery can affect urinary function. The unin continueded consequence of a strange new frontier more ways to find cancer but increasing concern that some of those cancers are not dangerous. A message over which patients and doctors can connect. I think the new role for the physicians is to be a coach, to really try and heparin all this complicated data and to help people make a choice thats right for them. Lapook we take a breath. Next.

Trials to see if a simple breath test can spot cancer are underway at the university of southern california, where these volunteers tried out the device. Its just like a breathylzer for alcohol, only its a billion times more sensitive. Pauley known as breathlink its the brainchild of dr. Michael phillips who head new jersey. Somebody could just walk in the Doctors Office have the results . Certainly. Its not quite as sims it sound. What i do for research. All right. Not exactly fun. How much longer . It felt like the longest two minutes of my life. Thats very strange. Although it sound breathtakingly futuristic, dr. Phillips says the basic premises is as old as air. Hippocrates back in ancient greece told his students to smell the patients breath. When someone gets cancer it actually changes their breath . The answer to that is definitely yes for Breast Cancer and lung cancer. The tests reliability in screening certain types of cancer is yet to be proof. Patient number seven. Dr. Ph hes on to something big. Meanwhile, it seems time to state the obvious. If you can eulaminate mammograms every woman would cheer. But we may be able to tell a woman you dont really need one. Your probability of having Breast Cancer is very small. Its important to note that this breath test has not been approved yet by the f. D. A. But dr. Phillips hopes that will happen soon, when it does, we will all breathe a little easier. Lapook correspondent Susan Spencer.

I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i asked my doctor. And he recommended eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Yes, eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Both made me turn around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily r than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquimay increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis the right treatment for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. Lapook we leave you this sunday morning in a field of new life.
