Doctor Pat McGeer & Aurintricarboxilic Acid





Doctor Pat McGeer is 91. I ran into him at my Safeway. We had a chat. He told me that at his age he can no longer play basketball but that he does play tennis every day. I asked him about his research at the UBC Hospital which he had previously told me was about cancer. This time he went into more detail. They have a product called Aurintricarboxilic  Acid which prevent cancers cells from getting blood. He told me that all the patients they have tried the substance on are alive and well. One has been around two years since being treated. He then went into the complexity of the further step of making it known to pharmaceutical companies. I asked him if it worked only on certain cancers. He told me it worked with all including that tough pancreatic cancer.
