Help Children Have a Merry Xmas While Receiving a Lap Dance
While we'll wait to ask you all to throwout your condoms, we did just come across this interesting story about an American man who, it seems, "appears to have been cured of [the wily HIV virus] 20 months after receiving a targeted bone marrow transplant normally used to fight leukemia." It seems doctors in Germany are claiming this major win. But! American Dr. Andrew Badley, the director of the HIV and immunology research lab at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., claims that said tests have probably not been extensive enough. Still: This news is always good to hear. We're certain to hear more about this alleged curing in the next few days. (CBS 5)

Pretty major Catch-22. Every person I know who got a bone marrow transplant didn't live.
You're trading HIV for a bone-marrow transplant, which leaves you on what? A zillion immunosuppressive drugs.
Whatevs... German doctors got rid of my twin brother's brain tumor and apparently accidentally tweaked a different part of his brain in the process because now he can do really, really, really long division in his head. Viva la Deutsch!
