ABC News: Cuban developed lung cancer vaccine could arrive in the US...

ABC's Gillian Mohney reports 
on Cimavax, a vaccine developed 
by Cuba's Center for Molecular 
Immunology that is treating 
lung cancer patients in Cuba, 
where lung cancer is one of the 
leading causes of death. The
immunotherapy treatment could 
be coming to the US thanks to 
the Roswell Park Cancer Institute 
in Buffalo, NY who has been 
working with the Center for 
Molecular Immunology to bring
the vaccine to America. A cure 
on the horizon...? Let's hope...

MSN Health: 10 things never to say to someone with cancer....

what to say to a loved one 
when they discover that they 
have cancer. We often think
we know how to sympathize 
and empathize with what 
someone is going through; 
yet everyone's experience in 
battling cancer is different.
Conversation can be awkward.
This guide by MSN Health
helps rethink what is most 
appropriate to say under 
the various circumstances 
and suggests ways to approach
your loved one/dear friend to
best support them during these
difficult times.
