Money is the cure for cancer
Money is the cure for cancer
This is my page so this is my rant.
As the epidemic continues, I have seen or have heard of around 30-40 people die of cancer of some sort or another, (liver, breast, lungs, lymphoid, prostrate) ranging from the age’s of 28 to 79. In the last 7 years. Including my lovely dad who was only 68 years old. Including several other friend's dad's thus all reluctantly joining "The dead dad's club".
Reading the news we hear of the thankful stories of Pop stars/celebs and starlets miraculously surviving the cancer (must be the stardust)..and recovering then going about their living years, ironically the publicity of their brush/crash with cancer raises their profile and proceeds to help with more work, paying for scan check ups & relevant drugs available for the rich as they go along.
For the others however its a totally different story. A mammogram is not sufficient enough to see any significant signs of growth of the disease, an ultra sound is.
Low waged earners will not be given the option of an ultra scan as this costs money and a doctor has to come along and make sense of the ultra sound. Cat scans don’t get me started, basic medical imaging, diagnostic material is not available right away to poor people get in line and wait, wait while the disease devours you up and lick’s its lips, lovingly.
Without naming fortunate ones who can afford the drugs and afford the private care to quite literally save their lives. The other humans who don’t earn that silly money are sometimes told the drugs and equipment wont be available to them so therefore you aint got long love. As fucking Frank as that.
This lady and others are campaigning to stay on the drugs make them available to keep her and others alive.
