superman that ho...(no really, i'm listening to that song right now LOL)
so, i was really disturbed today with the news that patrick swayze calls himeself a "miracle" after treatment of pancreatic cancer. now, i can't find too much about this treatment, mostly its just plugging his new movie/whatever. but, honestly, and its nothing against patrick swayze, but if he gets some miracle cure for pancreatic cancer i will personally go out and kill him.
in the past two years i lost my mom's best friend and my ex-boyfriend's mother to pancreatic cancer. and you know what, i'm kind of sick of celebrities getting special treatment only lots of money can buy to cure uncurable diseases (magic johnson and AIDS anyone?).
so far, from what i can tell from the articles that it's just how he is feeling that is a "miracle." then again, it's only been 4-5 months since his diagnosis. both andrews mom and my moms best friend, michelle, had good days and bad. andrews mom passed away 9 months after diagnosis. michelle, 7 months.
okay all im saying is that if there's some sort of miracle cure that only patrick swayze can have i'm going to be very angry.
i mean, at one point i thought i had the cure for the cancer. okay no i didnt. but when andrew's mom was sick i spent hours, nights, days, endless amounts of time doing research on treatments, drug regimens, etc etc etc. and i dont mean webMD. i mean serious professional research. dont ask why, im just that way....im actually finding myself in the same situation with my parkinson's patient. but even the best drugs were no where close to being approved, or even near Phase III trials.
alright now i have to end this entry because i'm on another learning journey. is its wrong to buy pharmacokinetics text books online even thought im not in school? what? WHAT? im weird okay
