That's almost exactly what the article guesses - might be there's no signal form nearby cells saying that they should be growing together. I just thought it was a cool idea, no biological backing, that we could help cells signal eachother to have them work harder to heal.

Yes, okay, but what is the text "they don't they they're supposed to??" supposed to mean? Is it missing the word think? A different word?
