Cancer? Where the hell, did it come from... unheard off as a kid

Death really is a subject

no one like to talk about

until it happens?

It's the taboo subject

like Cancer.

We skirt around it.

or ignore it.

Even thou it's plastered

in every newspaper and

tv ads about it.

I remember as a kid

never even hearing

such a word "cancer"

in general. It was

unheard off. Now

it's so common.

We are no closer to

finding a  cure to

this evil curse

that affects anyone

any age, race, background

gender. You name it

it does not care.

It has destroyed and

taken so many.

And affected others

who have over come

it. Outwith the families

of the loved ones also.

That it runs riot inside

with emotional upset

stress, anxiety and

worse if the loved one

passes due to this

Cancer.

It's like Cancer is

a modern killer of

human beings

unheard off until

the last 30 years

or so to me. Before

that nothing.

It's like the modern

enviroment way of

life, junk food, alcohol

drugs, cigs, chemicals in

food we eat and such

like is messing our

human system and

genes up. So we can

not get rid of bad things

in our bodies.

Iam no smart a*s.

But it makes me

wonder what is

going on with

the Cancer is

it man made?

There's not a doubt in my mind that our epidemic of cancer is, if not man made, then heavily influenced by our oh so modern and convenient lifestyle.
Denmark is known to have the highest cancer rate per capita...also, very high rates of both drinking and smoking, two well known risk factors.
I doubt that the many chemicals and coloring agents in our food is blameless, either. All that stuff can't possibly be good for us.
As an aside, I am a breast cancer survivor; boobless, but alive!

thank you angel, for your insight thoughts and comments. You go angel. More power to you, my hubby has throat cancer. That why this topic.

[angel]

Tell him to keep positive. I really believe it helped me to never give up.

thanks angel, easy saying than doing in his case sadly.

[angel]

I will pray for him especially. Don't need his name. The One I'll be speaking to will know exactly who I mean. Just remember; He knows when a spaeeow falls...how much more will He be mindful of us? Courage, dear one.

Cancer, how much I hate that word. For every one I care about died because of that. Honestly I wish someday someone is going to find a cure for this bullshit sickness.

[Onlyme]

I agree totally with you. Cancer really messes your life and everyone around you like it has me and my hubby, and he is the one suffering from it.

I hope he gets better soon...
Keep hanging Dawn..
