Anti-Radiation Pill

At last, an anti-radiation pill for everyone! I never thought this would be possible in my lifetime :) A pill that literally protects everyone from radiation exposures. :)

Hmmm.. Does this mean we can do several x-rays in 1 week without any ill effects?

Another one past away

My patient for more than 2 years finally met his Creator. She was a very brave and had a heart of gold. She fought and fought until she had nothing left to fight with.

After undergoing a chemo cycle, her body just gave way and she was never really was back to normal. Her oncologist nicknamed her "flower" coz she had severe adverse reactions even with the lowest dose of chemo.

I will really miss her.

One more reason for not... Colas!!!

I never thought that drinking colas can eventually lead to paralysis.

I remember when I was young, after playing basketball I was so thirsty and instead of drinking water, I chose cola (blame it on advertising). After gulping a bottle, I became more thirsty than before drinking the cola! I learned a lesson that day, water is the best!

Back from that much needed vacation

I just came back from a much deserved vacation, Blessing in disguise, I was able to hook up with a lady who was into herbs and crystals.

I was searching for graviola leaves instead of the fruit as a means to supplement patients with cancer. Prayers answered, the leaves were even picked from trees high up in the mountains.

Distant Healing Intention = Prayers

This study done by Dean Radin et al., showed that by focusing attention or intention on another person, on this study, a loved one, measureable changes on the human physiology can actually happen.

Its what we call "spooky action at a distance"

What was funny for me was, the paper avoided to use "prayer." The contention was to remove any religious connotations. I guess they're really trying to separate religion from science.

Kid ordered for Chemo

I dont know how I feel for the kid and the family, it must be hard on them. Whatever happened to patient's rights. Maybe they thought the kid was uninformed or misinformed.

I say, we underestimate our youths today, they're sharper, more intelligent than we ever accept or realize.

What will happen if the patient dies from complications to the chemo, who will take the blame... the judge?

Deja Vu

I am really distubed at whats happening to Louie, a breast cancer patient. Recently, I found out that she has disseminated pulmonary metastasis, and its causing her dyspnea.
This is exactly what happened to my patient before, she was so out of breath 24hrs a day, on 5L of O2. It wasnt a nice thing to see.

And now, it seems that, if things will not get better she will likewise become like this. Have to act fast, no more mistakes and missteps.

Hard times

I've been procrastinating in writing recently, mainly because there is nothing really good to write about, all I've been getting recently is bad news...
