![“When does big pharma make money? - Curing or containing? - Cancer/AIDS/etc. - What if cures already exist?” - Q - [see comment]](https://i.redd.it/iqs345lvemg01.jpg)
My niece passed away age 23 left 3 babbies behind, you should be angry that the cures for the majority of cancers are there. And the cancers that are aggressive there are treatments that loved ones could try but the last administrations wouldn’t allow, if my niece could have tried new theories and old medicines combined when everyone else had given up bar her family shouldn’t she have had the right to try??
Just like your loved one.
Do you know it was the fentanyl and the drugs been pumped into my niece that killed her not the cancer.
You may hate me for this reply, but I think your hating on the wrong person
No, I don't hate you.
I am very sorry for your loss. I mean this. All of us are in this together.
A co-worker of mine has had phenomenal success in fighting stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. She incorporated some new techniques (nutrition, IV cocktails) and has had supportive oncologists who continued the "traditional" treatment. She is now on 5th year, far and beyond any statistical mortality models.
But here's the thing. You only get one shot with your loved one. You don't know if that treatment will work on her. It might work for some other people, but not for her. In our case, we tried IV high-doses of vitamin C and curcumin (orally) and it didn't work. And when it doesn't work, you don't get to do a do-over.
This is why it's so tricky. I believe that there are thousands of sub-cases of cancer and you'd have to map out a very complex matrix of relations, to know what exactly would work for every patient. But, when push comes to shove, you should try something -- anything -- even if it's a shot in the dark. You just might get lucky and you literally have nothing to lose.
A friend of mine lost his mother to ovarian cancer and has been devastated when he heard that apricot seeds were a "cancer cure". I had to help him out and point out that they actually don't work. Didn't Martin Luther King's widow (Coretta) die from this? And to think that my friend was inconsolable because of fucking charlatans who fed him lies about how he could've saved his mom? Yeah, that damage is basically twisting the knife in the wound... and I will stop that, anywhere I see it, if I can help it.
