I had a meme a few years ago after my cancer that showed two doctors talking to each other. The first one said: "Wouldn't it be great if we could cure cancer". The second one turned to her and said: "Yes, but treating cancer is how we butter our bread".
Treating cancer is big business - I don't expect it will ever be completely cured in my lifetime.

There is no one disease called "cancer". Some are already being routinely cured. Others still have a dismal prognosis.
Until all cancers can be prevented there will be new patients who need treatment, even if everyone with every cancer diagnosis could be cured.
We really do not know IF the cancers that take off in bodies could ever be cured. That's what THEY tell us, I don't trust everything THEY say... That's why I work with all the prevention I do.
There are doctors that have been silenced for their research and treatments.
Oh of course, we are all going to die, but I'd like to have a little more control over how I go out. How we did is not the point...my nephew left this earth at 5 yrs old. So.....
I choose NOT to go out all drugged with more and more toxic drugs as many do. One drug to fix the damage that the other drug did and it goes on and on.
My sister was given so many toxic drugs for the MS she dealt with and I believe the drugs killed her. Many people live long long lives and many do not take so many drugs. I know some....
My sister gave pharma probably a million during her journey. Yes, I'm angry.
wait ...what? At 5? No grape extract for him I guess.
Did you blame him for his own death like you do your own sister with MS? That poor woman. Sick and listening to hours of endless ridicule and what she was doing wrong. Ugh.
Listen, unless we are all going out in our sleep, you WILL be subjected to doctors and drugs.Oh well.

These need not be mutually exclusive desires, however. I see nothing wrong in working towards both ends.
My first job after Grad School was working in the largest pediatric cancer center in the U.S. There are faculty there who have been there for decades, some since the 1970s. The Director would often say that their end goal was to put themselves out of business, and I believe in the sincerity of that statement based on the work I saw the faculty and staff doing day in and day out. You might have experienced the same by many of your caregivers. I really think it takes a special type of person to work in oncology.

I didn't say how he died, he was killed by a truck. Children don't and babies don't take grape seed ex.
More sarcasism as usual from some members. And what I choose to talk about is no one's business, but many make it theirs. So much anger around here.
No, I just see and hear so much anger from members here. And anger and cancers are not good friends.
Many just love to jump to conclusions no matter what. I know my friends at C-D.
You interpret any disagreement as being angry with you. Those who disagree with you do so because some of what you say is dangerously inaccurate and potentially harmful for people who might choose to follow your advice.
Do not post here and expect everyone to cheerfully accept everything you say as factual.

Yes, we do know that some cancers can be cured. This is the type of statement you make that gets called out frequently. It is just not true, and it is certainly not helpful for a reader with a potentially curable cancer.
"THEY" - whoever you think THEY are - would have no reason to lie about curing cancers. What would be the point? There are millions of long term cancer survivors. those who are alive 10 - 20 - 30 years or more after diagnosis are cured.
Any doctor who has been "silenced for their research and treatments" was a quack who was preying on desperate people for a buck.
If there is scientific evidence for "research and treatments" it will not be "silenced".
You absolutely do not know whether your grapeseed extract does anything you claim for it. The fact that you have never developed a cancer does not mean GSE is preventing you from getting cancer. I drink milk every day and I have never developed a cancer. That does not mean milk is preventing me from getting cancer.

Very cool. Yeah, all these organizations - the AMA, pharms, FDA, etc. doesn't want cures. They want
stuff that will keep us ill. Hence ensuring the word formaldehyde isn't listed on any product. They want
to make us sick so we'll pay to get unsick (which will never happen).
There have been changes, though. Lung cancer patients are surviving much longer than just 20 years
ago. The problem will always be, is surviving quality of life or quantity? @20 yrs. ago, I was in an
oncologist's office with a relative. There was a woman with cancer there with a friend who tried to
convince her that chemo was worth it but the cancer-stricken woman obviously didn't believe it.
Saw several relatives go through the same thing.
