Summaries

  • A desperate dying man injects himself with experimental nanobots that can supposedly cure anything. It works, but then his body starts to hideously mutate. He asks his soon-to-be brother-in-law, who invented the nanobots, for help.
  • Dr. Stephen Ledbetter believes he has found the cure for everything: tiny nanobots that can cure diseases at the cellular level. He is frustrated by the limits put on his research and the fact he does not have authority to take his tests to the next level and use it on humans. After his his future brother-in-law, Andy Groenig, learns that he has osteosarcoma (pelvic cancer), he breaks into Leadbetter's lab and injects himself with the serum. The effects are rapid and quite dramatic. Within three days, the cancer has been reduced by 90 percent and he no longer requires glasses. Stephen is upset when he learns what he's done, but agrees to monitor his progress. As time goes on, however, Andy begins to develop in ways that no one could have imagined.—garykmcd
  • Dr. Ledbetter's new nanomachines offer tremendous potential benefits, including the cure for deadly diseases. So when Ledbetter's friend Dr. Andy Groenig is diagnosed with terminal cancer (osteosarcoma), he steals into Ledbetter's laboratory and injects himself with the nanomachines. They cure his cancer in less than a week. It's what they do next that's cause for worry.—CommanderBalok
