The citizens of Tumortown are forever assailed with cures and rumors of cures.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When are we going to say cancer is cured? I'm not sure when that will happen, if that will happen because cancer is a very slippery disease and it involves a vast number of cells in the body and those cells are continually mutating.
Cancer victims who don't accept their fate, who don't learn to live with it, will only destroy what little time they have left.
Although the elusive 'cure' may be a distant dream, understanding the true nature of cancer will enable it to be better controlled and less menacing.
I think it's scandalous that we haven't done more to cure cancer.
In the frantic search for an elusive 'cure,' few researchers stand back and ask a very basic question: why does cancer exist? What is its place in the grand story of life?
It's unconscionable that cancer patients get the wrong diagnosis 30 percent of the time and that it takes so long to treat them with appropriate drugs for their cancer.
Until you expose the cancer, you can't fix it.
Tumours can come out of nowhere.
So many of us have friends or family who have battled cancer, and we know how important it is to find a cure.
We're not going to find a magic cure for cancer. We've got to prevent it.
