Sunday Morning.

Friend’s giving

This journey is so challenging, pursuing anything but what you truly enjoy doing is the biggest mistake and loss, financially, physically etc

People who decorate early are the happiest ( maybe not!)

My pleasure!

Cardiorespiratory fitness and death from cancer: a 42-year follow-up from the Copenhagen Male Study - PubMed CRF is highly significantly inversely associated with death from cancer and all-cause mortality. The associations are robust for exclusion of subjects dying within 20 years of study inclusion, thereby...

Vaccine shows promise against aggressive breast cancer | WashU Medicine Clinical trial targeted recurrence of hard-to-treat triple-negative breast cancer

Good morning, Bluesky. Today’s #GoodMorningNews: a trial at Washington University’s school of medicine has shown great results for a vaccine that would prevent recurrence for a particularly aggressive form of breast cancer. It’s a small trial, but 3 years later 16/18 participants remain cancer free

Someone must have cursed me a long time ago that no matter what day it is I am always up before 6 am!

A breakthrough cancer immunotherapy is now taking aim at autoimmune disease CAR-T therapy is generating excitement for lupus, scleroderma, and other conditions as clinical trials expand

This is huge news.

This opens up the possibility of a viable treatment for a range of auto-inmune diseases, not just Lupus.

A star cluster is shown inside a large nebula of many-coloured gas and dust. The material forms dark ridges and peaks of gas and dust surrounding the cluster, lit on the inner side, while layers of diffuse, translucent clouds blanket over them. Around and within the gas, a huge number of distant galaxies can be seen, some quite large, as well as a few stars nearer to us which are very large and bright.

This image of the Ring Nebula, taken by Webb’s Near-Infrared Camera, appears as a distorted doughnut. The nebula’s inner cavity hosts shades of blue and green, while the detailed ring transitions through shades of orange in the inner regions and pink in the outer region. The ring’s inner region has distinct filament elements. Stars litter the scene, with a particularly prominent star with 8 long spikes in the top right corner.

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which, have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.

Cassiopeia A, a circular cloud of gas and dust with complex structure. The inner shell is made of bright pink and orange filaments studded with clumps and knots. Around the exterior of the inner shell, particularly at the upper right, there are curtains of wispy gas that look like campfire smoke. The white smoke-like material also appears to fill the cavity of the inner shell, featuring structures shaped like large bubbles. Around and within the nebula, there are various stars seen as points of blue and white light. Outside the nebula, there are also clumps of yellow dust, with a particularly large clump at the bottom right corner that appears to have very detailed striations.

Absolutely gorgeous

You are to die for

Hell yes

Arguably, the greatest advance in healthcare in the past 100 years was the widespread vaccination of children.

If RFK is head of health and human services will the field of oncology even exist anymore? Or does he not believe cancer exists either??? 😥🙄😡🥹😩😞. This country is a scary place right now. #MedSky #OncSky

I spent 5 hours in the hood today !

I officially started watching #Holiday movies as a coping mechanism for stress!

Just to be very clear about things that work.

You can lose something and move on or at least think that you are passed the grief but when the wave of sadness comes… oh man!
