Why is there no cure for metastatic liver cancer? Why do governments spend more money to kill people than to cure people?
Where are all the metastatic liver cancer survivors? Please leave a comment if you know any!
I saw a repeated Oprah show yesterday promoting the movie Sex and the City. Seems that Cynthia Nixon has breast cancer but got cured. Good for Cynthia that she is cured, but:
I am really fed up with the clapping for people being cured of cancer. What’s there to clap for?
What about the people that have been taking care of a cancer loved one who didn’t survive? Why don’t they get a standing ovation? Why aren’t they even invited on TV?
It’s obvious that only cancer survivors can talk, but why not make an effort to invite the people who get devastated when cancer destroys not only their loved one but also part of their life, their believe and their way of life?
Cancer is a life changing experience, but not one you wish anybody to experience.
A new economy is needed
It’s simple: people do have a price and if you look at asbestos lawsuits, you see that human lives are all but priceless. And as long as lives aren’t priceless, people will continue to destroy our world and environment and if needed pay a few extra dollars in a lawsuit.
Our economy unfortunately is killing both us as the planet we live in. Global warming is here and the US has been reluctant to take measures. The best they can do now is pointing to other countries like India and China. Unfortunately, US is producing more carbon-dioxide and other harm to the environment, and they only have 200 million people to take care for.
Luckily there are people trying to make a change. I just saw the Esty banner on the right of this website talking about building a new economy and present a better choice.
Unfortunately, these incentives are few and will take ages to make an impact.
Meanwhile metastatic liver cancer prognosis keeps grim, metastatic liver cancer treatment are almost none and metastatic liver cancer survival rates are too low to mention.
And let’s face it: we have been trying to find a cure for metastatic liver cancer for ages now, and with all our sophisticated hospitals and research teams, we still haven’t found it.
So if you can’t find it, wouldn’t you start diverting the attention and start working on cancer prevention?
Sounds logical to me, but since it is not done on a large scale, we can only conclude that there are more important factors in the eyes of decision-makers than the quality of life of their citizens.
As long as life isn’t considered priceless, there won’t be a cure for metastatic liver cancer.
