Proleukin

I was recently contacted by a representative from Proleukin to make this information available on my blogs and websites. 

PROLEUKIN, a prescription medication, is a form of immunotherapy that uses the body's natural immune system to fight cancer. PROLEUKIN has been used for over 10 years in the treatment of metastatic melanoma and over 15 years in the treatment of metastatic kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma). Find out how PROLEUKIN can help and ask your doctor if you are a candidate for treatment with the medication.

This link will take you to their site.  There is a link on the site for you to sign up for PROLEUKIN information, updates and inspiring treatment stories.   I hope that something you find there will be helpful.

This is what it's like after losing a child, for me anyway. I never stop looking and trying to figure out how this happened. If a sunburn when she was little was to blame (me), or could it have been genetics? I wonder if there will be a cure. I have a very hopefull feeling when I see news stories like this one.

"In conclusion, we have demonstrated for the first time that immune responses which are elicited by a novel anti-GRP DNA vaccine suppress the proliferation and growth of melanoma tumors in mice," say the researchers. "The antiangiogenesis and antimetastastic activities of this DNA vaccine suggest a novel approach against various cancers, especially malignant melanoma."
