Now that is a direct hit. Cancer / cemo sicker than hell from the treatment, hair all gone, can not do anything because of nausea, and you live 3 / 4 / 5 / months more. It is not living it is existing for the hope you will be the 1 in 10000 that it rolls back the disease.

Medicine offers hope to those who are ill. Many times things can be fixed or the disease controlled but when you get to 1 in 10000 and the cost is 50k for each month of life that is measured in months, then that is a false hope. We all are going to be terminally ill sooner or later but there just has to be a better way to approach ones own death.
