When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand.

Tumour death-cell receptors on breast cancer cell (Illustration – Honorable Mention). This artist’s illustration shows a monoclonal antibody (green) developed by scientists at the University of Alabama binding to a ‘death cell receptor’ on a cancer cell (top left). This triggers the cell’s inbuilt suicide program (apoptosis).
It looks like a setting for a sci-fi movie.
(I wish those monoclonal antibodies were as super specific as the researchers would like them to be. They seem to end up hitting receptors on cells you don’t want taken out.)
