I have always wondered how in the world scientists were able to find a cure for polio in the 1950s but are unable to find cures for the deadly diseases of current times.
Granted, it could be for money because a cure would terminate all future treatments of a disease which in turn terminates future profits. It could be because of future genetic problems with cures for certain diseases. It could be because different cancers affect the body differently. I admit I don't know. Other than the pharmaceutical companies, scientists, and doctors, no one really knows what drives researchers to find new medicines or possible cures.
I do feel sorry for the Reeve family. I do hope they find a cure soon for cancers. My grandfather died at 67 of Non-Hodgekins Lymphoma. A dear friend of mine, his brother is fighting Hodgekins Lymphoma . . . he's in his second bout with it. I believe every family has had some experience with cancer. Cancer doesn't just strike a certain generation or group of people. Everyone knows someone who has had cancer and no one has first dibs on experience with cancer.
