I’m sure this will disturb some of the more sensitive flowers around here but some interesting developments coming from mRNA vaccines.

My BIL several months back had a cancer recurrence. The latest and greatest was Keytruda with something else. Potentially/likely curative. After second treatment his body started attacking itself. It was very bad. Hospitalized for 3 weeks and we are still not sure that the issue has been reversed. They were pulling his plasma every day to get as much out of his body as possible (among other things). Long story short, you may fix one thing but the trade off could be worse. Time will tell. Having said that, I have been blessed with exponential better results from my treatments than my brothers and sisters with the same cancer.

It’s a motherfucker for sure.
It's important to teach your kids good morals and values, independent thought, and how to recognize BS when it staring them in the face.
From the few articles avail in the journal environment, this looks like or could be the most promising mRNA application, yet.

Go ahead @Joey Bridges enlighten us with your knowledge of curing cancer and which treatments have the highest likelihood of solving the disease. I’ll wait while you google it.
This post bounces around too much for me to understand, other than that escalated in a downward spiral quickly!
In only the 4th post of the thread, Hmmm

Keytruda likely saved my life. I had squamous cell cancer pop up on my scalp. By the time the lesion was removed and I had radiation, it had already metastasized to the lymph nodes of my neck. I got surgery to remove that mass and started Keytruda 2 days later. They planned a round of radiation and chemo after the surgery, but by that time they found cancer in my lung, which ruled that treatment out. Lucky for me, shortly after that, the little "Eat Me" signs that Keytruda hung on the cancer cells worked and, so far, I'm cancer free. No side effects, so far from the Keytruda.
Dude! From “Scary as Hell” to “Swing and….its a Home Run!”
NICE.
Very Stoked for you and yours.
Thanks. It was nice to have my oncologist switch from talking about “quality of life” to encouraging me to go riding.
I can imagine. I’m digging the bit of humor that I’m feeling in that. You know, that laugh you get, if you’re lucky enough to laugh, when something imminent and dark goes away and life becomes normal…again. All you can do is laugh…or cry…if that makes sense?
I’m guessing you’ve got an entirely different perspective of what’s truly important nowadays.
I’d love to hear about it over a beer some day.
My Oncologist tells me to do whatever it is I’ve been doing. I don’t tell him everything I’ve been doing.
Keytruda also got a good friend of mine from stage IV pancreatic cancer to NED. But it sure effed up my BIL.

We’re all different. I lucked out. My oncologist tells me that because my cancer was so amazingly mutated that Keytruda was more effective in putting an “Eat Me” sign on the cancer cells. I guess that was to my advantage.
Edit: I wish Keytruda worked for more people with pancreatic cancer. I’ve lost far too many family members to that already.
Measles sucked. I remember my mom being scared I was gonna die.
Six siblings in my mothers family. Three of the six passed away with pancreatic cancer. It's a terrible thing.
I've often said a doctor only needs 2 answers to all questions. If they think you'll like the answer: the data tells us... if they think it's not a good answer: everyone's different

Back to the topic. What does everyone think if MRNA shows promise in cancer treatment/cure?
If my cancer returns, I’ll be the first in line.
It’s your thread and you’ve yet to give your opinion on mRNA showing promise on cancer treatment. Why don’t you stop trying to bait someone into helping you make whatever point it is you’re trying to make? Maybe—crazy idea, but bear with me—instead of posting a news link and saying it’s going to hurt some flowers around here, you could make your own substantive arguments rather than ask people to make arguments for you to shit on.
As someone with family members fighting multiple types of cancer I’m all for any progress towards ending the disease. And I’m not concerned with how mRNA works.
Then why'd you start a thread by grousing about flowers? It seems if you were genuinely happy about progress toward curing cancer, you lead with that.
I think we all know why he started this thread.
Don’t sweat it. You’ve quite successfully made your point, as usual.
We all now how Soggy plays and sometimes we just answer his silliness with our actual observations…
Then, if we’re lucky, someone like Minnesota Dave comes along and gives us a friendly reckoning. I, for one, love silver linings like Dave’s story. Hell, it truly is a reckoning, to me.
So, in the end, between this latest cancer-research discovery showing some actual legit mRNA progress and successful use combined with Dave’s sharing of his journey and the awesome outcome…?
Soggy’s typical name-calling BS appears to have backfired and “gone positive” despite his opening. 🤣
In the end: we’ve got an amazing tale from one of our own and he’s given us fuel to recognize that…
Life is pretty fuckkn’ good.
Isn’t it?
