One can hope for continuing medical progress, against cancer in general but especially CRC which is still claiming so many worldwide.
I wish all of you on this forum a peaceful and hopeful start of the new year!

Great things are happening in 2020!
All the best to those on the cure for cancer journey today and into the New Year!
Collaboration among research, cancer care providers, and private sector manufacturing will hopefully create new breakthroughs in 2020 for all to benefit. All the best to those making these efforts going forward. Happy New Year!
