Greatest Headline I've Seen This Week

Hedgehog Antagonists May Harm Cardiac Function as Well as Tumors

There was some serious chuckling when I saw this one.

It's from Medscape, the division of WebMD I used to work for, and unfortunately you can't access it without a log-in. If you're really interested in medical information for doctors, you can register. Otherwise, the short version is that some of the anticancer drugs that are designed to block blood flow to cancer tumors and starve them to death...might also hurt the heart. But the headline pretty much says it all.

In the mean time apparently if I am within the opposition we can overcome not only tumors, but I can break hearts as well.

Fabulous.
