Woman Saves Own Life By Coughing Up Cancer Tumour

Claire Osborn, 37, felt a tickle in her throat and hacked up the 2cm long heart-shaped lump into a tissue. She took the growth to her GP and was given just a 50% of survival after a biopsy revealed it was an aggressive form of mouth and throat cancer. However, doctors were later stunned when further tests revealed there was no trace of any other cancer in her entire body. It is believed the tumour grew on a 'stalk' at the back of her throat, which dislodged during the coughing fit. Mrs Osborn said: "The consultant turned round to me and said 'It appears you have coughed up your cancer.

Scientists Discover The Oldest, Largest Body Of Water In Existence

The water is out in space, a place we used to think of as desolate and desert dry, but it's turning out to be pretty lush. Researchers found a lake of water so large that it could provide each person on Earth an entire planet’s worth of water--20,000 times over. Yes, so much water out there in space that it could supply each one of us all the water on Earth--Niagara Falls, the Pacific Ocean, the polar ice caps, the puddle in the bottom of the canoe you forgot to flip over--20,000 times over. The water is in a cloud around a huge black hole that is in the process of sucking in matter and spraying out energy (such an active black hole is called a quasar), and the waves of energy the black hole releases make water by literally knocking hydrogen and oxygen atoms together.
