A man who was less than a year old has now recovered from cancer in a UK trial of a new drug treatment.
It’s a miracle. A man who was less than a year old is now cured of cancer thanks to a British trial of a new drug treatment, a great story told by The mirror. His name was Robert Glynn and he was 51 years old, he suffered from severe shoulder pain that prevented him from sleeping. Concerned, he then went to his general practitioner and underwent ultrasound scans and blood tests. But nothing was revealed.
It wasn’t until August 2020 that his cancer was discovered, by accident, when he contracted a gallbladder infection. As a reminder, bile duct cancer has few treatment options. Also, it had advanced and spread to his adrenal gland.
