Nothing goes according to plan https://decafbad.net/2023/06/23/nothing-goes-according-to-plan/ #ADayInTheLife #DeepThoughts #ZenHabits #Fearless #Cancer #misc

I Did a #MutualAidRequest & tried to retoot it but can’t find it.

So here I go again.

I’ve had #LongCOVID & #cancer for a year (on Feb 2) the same day a book I contributed a chapter to became an Amazon best seller.

I was also sick with a flu from Thanksgiving to NYE which did not test positive for COVID thank goodness .

But I worked while sick which is a bad idea for me. But I had no choice.

It’s caught up with me & I physically can’t work.

Please help. https://gofund.me/95d3f7be

Need a bit of GOOD news? #UCLA researchers developed a small implantable device that drove cancerous tumors into remission, eliminated metastasis, prevented the growth of new tumors, and resulted in longer survival in laboratory mice. Next up: clinical trials in humans. Very exciting and hopeful stuff!

Google’s Quest to Digitize Troops’ Tissue Samples
--
#Google had a confidential plan to turn the collection—slivers of skin, #tumor biopsies & slices of organs from #veterans—into an immense archive that could help create tools to aid the diagnosis & treatment of #cancer & other #diseases. And it would seek first, exclusive dibs to do so.

“The chief concern,” Google’s liaison in the #military warned, “is keeping this out of the press.”
