I also don't want people to think I'm discounting the incredibly hardworking researchers and doctors fighting tirelessly to save lives. They do absolutely everything they can.

I'm just whinging.

I hear you. But I watched my mum die in 2003 (not looking for sympathy) and a few months ago I watched blow for blow the same thing happen to someone else like it was an action replay. I'll believe it when I see it. Until then I'm just gunna donate to cancer research and ignore it until I have to go through it like most people.

Call me a pessimist but I am 32 years old and I cannot remember a year going by when the news said a new amazing cancer treatment massively suceeded jn trials and then we never heard about it again. And then the amount of people dying of cancer went up.
