OK. Morphine isn't a cure for breast cancer. It just helps with the pain. Those women will die regardless of whether or not they get morphine. As for the U.S. not giving enough of it to 3rd world countries -- morphine is a controlled substance. Many 3rd world countries are overflowing with "war lords" who confiscate medical supplies and sell them on the black market. Put two and two together.

As for how doctors help in 3rd world countries... Many doctors spend time in poverty stricken areas across the world and help provide necessary medical attention. I've read stories about doctors doing free cornea replacements, free fittings for prosthetic limbs, vaccinations, appendectomies. Lots of things.

Google it and see what you get.
