i still don't understand why with all the amazing things humans and science have accomplished that cancer remains such a curse.
when my father was diagnosed i went through ever medical source i could, praying i would find something new and cutting edge, in the end he was treated with a drug that has been around since the 1950's, doesn't cure anything but give people a short reprieve. In 50 years nothing from all the billions of dollars of research has turned out better.

RIP Bill and a million others
Mutt,
I was thinking the same thing. There was a really cool artical written about the politics of cancer. The Medical and Drug companies are involved. Think agout the Trillions of dollars that would be lost if a cure was found.
Same with light bulbs that don't burn out.
Same with Auto Tires that could last 500,000 miles
Same with any thing you buy.
Same with Aids and cancer.
It's called Planned Isolation.
A Microwave, a TV, or a human life. All about the fucking dollar.
