Do you think a cure for cancer will ever be found?

Question

I know alot of people who have had cancer or died from it. I know one person who died today from cancer.

Answer 1

Sorry to hear that.

Cancer is hundreds of diseases though, not just one. The difficulty is that different cancers are caused by different things, so no one strategy can prevent them, and different cancers respond to different treatments so no one treatment can cure them all.

Some cancers can be cured these days though - 7 out of 10 children are cured of cancer. Testicular cancer, Hodgkin's disease, and many cases of leukaemia can all be cured in adults with chemotherapy, most skin cancers are cured with surgery, and many cases of thyroid cancer and cancer of the larynx are cured with radiotherapy.

Many other types of cancer are also cured if they are found early enough - 75% of breast cancers that are found very early - at stage one - for example. There is still a long way to go, especially with some of the commonest types of cancer such as lung, breast, bowel and prostate cancer.

And there is much research going on in all types of cancer to try and find cures- dedicated hard work by those same people some here suggest are conspiring to hide a cure. Any scientist or drug company involved in discovering a cancer cure would be rich beyond their wildest dreams - why would they hide it?

Answer 2

A cure for cancer is impossible. Cancer, by its very nature, are cells that grow in unpredicatble ways. Every type of cancer is different and two types of the same cancer are very different. I can have lymphoma and so can you and what may work for you, will not work for me since my disease and cells are totally different. So, to find a "cure" is really impossible. That would imply that the same thing that would cure breast CA would cure prostate CA, when both a very different from themselves and each other.
We may discover effective treatments for individual cancers and prevention and early detection will make fighting them easier, but no, there will never be a cancer cure.

And to those who think the AMA, the gov't, the industries have a cure...you are just plain ignorant. Like they don't die from cancer, their families, friends etc don't die from cancer. If there was a cure, how exactly would it be kept "secret"? Researchers die from cancer...don't you think they would use it on themselves? Or their babies?
It amazes me eveyday the ignorance and stupidity of people and the things they believe.

Answer 3

So far only few virus are found and unsure but sure no hope.
If all are more active to fight cancer like computer era's movement and not passive to count on hundreds thousands of scientists then maybe.

China is another hope which this best herbal country can mobilize 5, 10 millions people easily with their surplus trade to build a new great wall to find the cure of cancer for the world.

Answer 4

I am so sorry! Read Natural Cures by Kevin Trudeau and he will say that the cancer cures have been hidden from us by the drug companies as they are still hoping to develop a drug for cancer and make billions of dollars. Sad but true apparantly! The cancer industry is a multi billion organization and the people who work there have no interest in finding a cancer cure - after all they will lose their high paying jobs.

Answer 5

Sorry buddy, there already is a cure but it will never be released because too many medical professionals would lose their jobs. Cancer makes money. Eliminate the cancer and reduce the cash flow. Pretty sad, huh?

Answer 6

Making dietary changes is your first line of defense in treating hypothyroidism. Learn here https://tr.im/RUKBH

Many people with hypothyroidism experience crippling fatigue and brain fog, which prompts reaching for non-nutritional forms of energy like sugar and caffeine. I’ve dubbed these rascals the terrible twosome, as they can burn out your thyroid (and destabilize blood sugar).

1. Just say no to the dietary bungee cord. Greatly reduce or eliminate caffeine and sugar, including refined carbohydrates like flour, which the body treats like sugar. Make grain-based carbohydrates lesser of a focus, eating non-starchy vegetables to your heart’s content.

2. Up the protein. Protein transports thyroid hormone to all your tissues and enjoying it at each meal can help normalize thyroid function. Proteins include nuts and nut butters; quinoa; hormone- and antibiotic-free animal products (organic, grass-fed meats, eggs, and sustainably-farmed fish); and legumes.

Answer 7

i believe it will. my friend had brain cancer and i know how hard it is. i'm so sorry. but i do kow that they're getting closer. there already is a shot that you can get for servical cancer, do it. it makes you feel really good about yourself, kowing that you will not have to fight against that.

Answer 8

no, i dont believe the cure will be found, althought it could be, i believe it wont be. they will find a way to make people live their lives normally with cancer with some kind of medication.

becuase the money is in the medication, not the cure.

Answer 9

Extremely sorry for your loss.
It seems hopeless, but I am sure that they will come out with a cure soon.
We just have to keep praying for it.

Answer 10

yes
soon a miracle will happen

and i am soo sorry about that person who died today
