Over the past few years, she had been more focused on researching how to treat patients through acupuncture. She simplydidn't know enough about medicinal herbs to be confident in developing an anti- cancer medicine.
Sensing her worries, Jack said, "| won't lie. Only a few medical books kept in the Damans residence touch on this research.However, the reason the research in those books was halted was due to technical issues at the time. It was also these booksthat inspired me."
