Having a mom who went through leukemia, i know first hand just how devastating the illness is. This sort of breakthrough would have made my moms recovery much less painful, and her standard of living after the illness and treatment would be so much better. It saddens me knowing that people have been treated already by treatments we will see as “barbaraic” in the future. Breakthroughs like these are some of the most important for the well being of the human race, and i personally think the medical field should explore options like these more.
