I want to believe

because as of now, it seems like it's doom (pretty much) and with indescribable pain for having cancer. Haven't read or research (google) much about the cure of it, other than seeing the after effect of chemo, radioactive treatment, surgery...it's a totally different person. Not to mention about the emotional side of it - it will turn one into someone you don't know, as many would probably be given the verdict from doctor - cannot guarantee, therefore fatality rate is very high. Not to mention people got some part of the body removed (cut, chop, slice...) , which is also not guaranteed...the chances of making it - to recover? well, honestly, how do they come out with a figure like 50%, 30% and so on. Therefore, would it be better not knowing this plug-from-the-air-numbers? Oh no, "they" have proof per study. Who are "they"? where are "they"? if one start digging, it's either getting a cold face from the doctors or with better + more humane doctors, they could link it to some huge medical drug companies. These are the people who do the study + research to show that their drugs "work", some sort...and it's tested by FDA. Well, these people are also selling these drugs for profit, big huge humongous profit. Approved or not approved FDA, would you check? if approved, what's the success rate? what's the side effect? during the critical and desperate circumstances, one most likely will take whatever the medical insurance can cover and offer by the doctor or medical institution. Ok, now I am lost about what I wanted to say in the beginning...damn, the title is not about what Molder pinned on his cubicle wall about UFO :)

I received a forwarded message (so does many in my social circle) about a miracle drug; natural, not too difficult to find, 10000x better than the chemo (more effective) and only kill the bad cells, not the healthy cells, and no known side effect? too good to be true? well, according to the message, this drug was used by the natives in Amazon (not the online store) for long long time - by the medicine men to cure many deceases. It was then picked up by a drug company, huge one (would like to know which one), and spent millions onto research. Per the message, it was concluded after many years - it works miraculously. Except it cannot be patented (to protect this IP) because it is a natural material. So the company spent more to research to duplicate something like this drug but failed. In short, there is no way in hell the drug can be protected or only this company can be protected monetary wise (ain't non-profit org). The research was shelved and sealed from seeing the sky again. Then, it was leaked by someone with a heart (go watch The Insider, Russell Crowe & Al Pacino, yeah!!!)...here we are, with high chance drug coming from a tree/plant that cure a "small" suffering of today humankind sitting there, where millions pumped into various researches (from government and medical bills), searching for a cure and yet IP protected solution, and continue the sale and marketing of those non-guarantee drugs - which eventually will bring more suffering to the patients and the patients loved ones - most of the time. Cannot say these other drugs are completely useless. It's all because of monetary gain - not millions, it's in billions...drug companies, medical institutions, and well, the insurance companies as well. It's like head they win, tail they win as well. 

Anyone asking, why these people keep pushing for curing and not about how to prevent cancer, prevention is better than cure - see the Hippocratic Oath modern version, where many physicians need to take during graduation, something like a lawyer call to bar (in British system). Would it better to educate people preventing this deadly decease than marketing the non-guarantee drug, which also makes the patient bankrupt after passing away...hmmm, that's the new legal issue, who is going to pick up the bill when the patient's gone?

hmmm.....see some similarities of drug company, medical insurer, FDA, and the patient...

Again, I want to believe there is cure out there, it's just being covered up. And I believe there are ways to prevent it from happening. And put it this way; when a pipe leaked, other than fixing the leakage, one should check if the pressure at the source is too high that this pipe cannot take it. Keep patching the leakage spot may not prevent it from happening again...and our body ain't no pipe, it's flesh, organic, and a live form, it can fix itself when there is not so much toxic dumping from the mouth.
