    As always, Marcia, you do a wonderful job of researching new material to relate to breast cancer. Thank you so much for your contribution to all of us, and hopefully this, along with many other things you have passed along, will bring some comfort to many on this board. Bless you. Hugs.

    What an encouraging article.
    Thanks Marcia. I recently read a book, The Biology of Belief" written by a research doctor. He said that if there is a gene that predisposes a person to cancer, the sheath over the gene must be removed by something. He said it could be stress, nutrition, toxins, etc. Now that they have identified the gene, hopefully they will get a better idea of what damages it (removing the sheath).
