"Unbelievable as it might seem, rabbits were used to help doctors destroy my old immune system. Certain cells of my immune system were placed in a rabbit that recognized these cells as foreign and labeled them as such. These labeled cells were then placed back into my body to completely destroy what was left of my immune system. The reactions were so severe that I began to shake uncontrollably. The 'bunnies,' as they became known, were literally hopping inside me." - Karin Weidenhammer
