Wow! I came about the book by accident; however, I've known about Henrietta Lacks for many years; I first read a story about her in "The Afro American" newspaper, and again years later. I remember having read that Mrs. Lacks' cells were in Russia even! And, that was before the iron curtain came down. I am into names, so when I came upon the last name, "Lacks" it dawned on me that I know a family in Baltimore by that name, and sure enough it is the same family. I will be contacting them, soon. I am a 7-year breast cancer survivor. Wouldn't it be something if Mrs. Lacks' cells cured my cancer!? Wow!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08401313149291471577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315151022752951218.post-39532837793600479152010-05-12T19:34:51.581-05:002010-05-12T19:34:51.581-05:00Jody,

What a tangled web of medicine, race, health care, patients rights and family issues, among many other things. It shows that so much in life is inter-connected, as are so many of us.<br />Love, DebDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01687598267859111296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315151022752951218.post-45259438024215251612010-05-10T16:11:39.405-05:002010-05-10T16:11:39.405-05:00Thank you all for your comment.

I've barely touched the surface.<br /><br />Come back and visit again soon! <br /><br />Bruce, really thrilled you stopped by. Anne made a last impression on me in the short time I knew her. Megan and I talk about her often.

It makes me think of how far we have come in the field of research via this woman. Far...sometimes I think to far with all the govt. regulations that are impossed on say medicine where the waiting period is too late for some.<br /><br />Also the truth of it is not what you ask but how you ask it using the right "Hospital lingo" to get the correct answer. Thanks for the thoughts!

This very well written blog has left me with many questions to answer but most of al with enough new information that triggers me to go out and find and read the book you talk about. I can't believe this has happened to this poor lady and her family and than again I can, putting it in the context of the day and age she lived in. That doesn't make it right but does sort of explain it. I do believe that this lady has contributed, unknowingly, to curing or partly curing others. Too bad she and her family didn't benefit. I can't imagine what her kids went through growing up without a mom and am so grateful I still have mine. Thank you for teaching me again.
