Come on, I'll take you there. ( slow, dramatic theme playing )

Our comedy act was called The 2 Fat Guys .

I don't know what to say exactly... but you've known all along how precarious this type of leukemia is.

I can get donor blood from a clinic in Monroe.

They took a sample of my blood at the hospital.

Please take care of him.

Here you see planks sold by the foot and we have supplies to combat scurvy.

In case I get hurt. People will know I'm a bleeder. Ralph, that's a sick kid.

Thank you, Sir.

So what? Everybody gets banged up once in a while.

They attack like white blood cells fighting an infection.

The Red Cross supplied the hospital with blood.

Incidences of leukaemia, tuberculosis and meningitis have dropped considerably.

In the last video I called this a thrombosis but that's really not quite right, thrombosis is the formation of the clot that can restrict the blood flow, but when it breaks off, becomes an embolus, and lodges itself further off and restricts blood flow, this is called a thromboemoblism.

It would actually go and block the artery further downstream and be embolism.

And so Red and Blue took a booze cruise across the ocean blue, but they were attacked by pirates and they were all beheaded!

You're lost in buried time, you're wandering around in nightmares

He died from acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

He didn't recognize that at the time, and he contracted leukemia.

It is, arguably, the most audacious endeavor of that Edwardian golden age of exploration, and it seemed to me high time, given everything we have figured out in the century since from scurvy to solar panels, that it was high time someone had a go at finishing the job.

With a weak beat, it continues to bleed.

They will die. This right over here, is called an infarction. an infarct is actually a dead heart tissue.

In the last decade there's been an explosion of use of bone marrow stem cells to treat the patient's other diseases such as heart disease, vascular disease, orthopedics, tissue engineering, even in neurology to treat Parkinson's and diabetes.

( gloomy theme playing )

Well, sure. That's why we brought you here.

I checked myself into a hospital and they told me I had hepatitis C.

And the lymphatic system is the stuff in your blood that fights diseases.

So, I was in a hospital for a long time and one of those things I got in hospital was a particular version of hepatitis.

Like, for example, this flag waving, right in front of the veterinary facility.

So it's not pumping hard enough or well enough to provide adequate function for that person.

It is said the blood of the deer god will cure disease.

Kill!

And when angiogenesis is out of balance, a myriad of diseases result.

We have Bob here, who is a volunteer donor.

Cures high blood when you boil it, cures sugar, diabetes, all diseases.

It could be anywhere. With fences down, it can wander in and out of any paddock it likes. He's put a tourniquet on.

What if you make yourself ill? An unbalanced diet leads to all kinds of sicknesses.

According to Norman Borlaug, father of the Green Revolution, stem rust has immense potential for social and human destruction.

A bloodsucker moves into town and the fever sets in.

And the good news has to do with what we know based on biomedical research that actually has changed the outcomes for many very serious diseases.

These are just for information hypertension, diabetes, obesity, lack of exercise.

Once things break off and become an embolus that's the general term for it and in particular, if it's broken off material that is due to a clot, it is a thromboembolus.

Skin for skin?

Blood for blood.

around 150,000 were injured and 74,000 died within the year.
