A Step In The Right Direction

Current Mood : Hopeful 

Cancer research is a topic which many individuals feel strongly about whether it be due to personal experience or having a loved one or friend battle with the disease. Anytime there is progress made in research, it renews hope that one day, cancer will not exist.  I came across an article from the United Kingdom on how researchers have used a drug to stop the blood vessels from forming around cancerous tumours. These drugs were used on mice, but it proved to be successful in 50% of mice that were tested.  The treatment even stopped some tumours from growing in the first place, that is an incredible development.
