What amazes me is the amount of money we have thrown at this disease and we still have basically a massacre happening. The cost in human suffering mental and physical is appalling.
Look, if you get to be 60, 70, 80 then crap happens. We are basically living longer, exposing ourselves to illnesses we never had TIME to get to 100 years ago.
I don't want to dismiss ANYONE with cancer, no matter their age. My Dad, 65, just got diagnosed with colon cancer (has already had the surgery, looks to be fine).
But children? Children with cancer? FRICK THAT. I was a monthly supporter of St Jude for a long time. I don't remember why I stopped but this is a good reminder. May leave them in my will even.

That is great to support St. Jude. Fortunately, they are close to having childhood cancer licked. About an 80% cure rate now with some common kinds in the 90% range.
