Detecting Toxins, Absorbing Cancer Cells?

Jill stood frozen in place, her voice trembling as she spoke, "Doctor, is the targeted therapy ineffective as well? What about a bone marrow transplant? Money is not an issue. I have money…"

"Try to find solace and spend more time with your mother." Doctor Derek, having seen too many departures and losses, had grown numb to such situations. With those words, he turned and left.

Wiping away her tears, Jill said, "Mom, Dad, I'll go and arrange for discharge procedures right now. We'll go to the best rehabilitation center in Star City. I'm sure they can cure your illness."
