That's why they'll never find a cure for cancer. If they did, the multibillion dollar corporate cancer treatment machine and the charities would become defunct. I don't think they have any desire whatsoever to dry up either of those cash cows.
The best treatment for cancer is prevention. Keep your thyroid gland in good working order and it's likely you'll never have cancer. Iodine in your diet is the key.
My mother died of cancer..... treatment. The same old story...
Lump in breast, biopsy, radical mastectomy and talking her into chemo using the old" It was close to your lung wall" excuse. The chemo allegedly got the cancer but, it got her immune system too. Same thing with her sister. It was sad to watch both of them go through that. All for the sake of the almighty dollar.
It's sad that our entire medical system is after mass profits, that come before health and pain. It seems the goal of medicine is to keep you on as many pills as possible as long as possible, but if you become too sick, to take you out as quick as possible. From big pharma to charities, it's all about the money. I'm all for people making money, but it's sad that health can't be seperated from the gross profit machine.
