OT- Personal from Bow. My cousin's son, Bobby, 22, in Wisconsin, passed away this weekend from brain cancer. He was buried today. He had fought an incredibly long and difficult battle with this disease, enduring many operations and chemo treatments.

I pray to God that the authorities in the EU and US wake-up and as soon as possible and approve mifamurtide and other products in the family of immunotherapeutic agents designed to destroy residual cancers cells by activating the body's natural defenses. I realize mifamurtide was developed for osteosarcoma, but perhaps it will turn into the broad based product platform projected for it and fight other cancers, especially in young people. Another sad day in this ongoing saga of delay after delay for approval for these new treatments for cancer.
