Well, I had my last chemo treatment about 23 years ago. All totaled I think it cost in the neighborhood of $20,000 (before insurance). That paid my doctor, the radiologist who read the xrays, my doctor's staff (including technicians), and the cost of the drugs. Nine hundred bucks a year. Not bad, considering it gave me a chance to father my beautiful daughter.
I should add that some people encouraged me not to resort to chemotherapy. I should add that I knew some people who did not resort to chemotherapy. They're dead.
I don't know if there will ever be a "cure for cancer". The types of cancer vary so widely in their characteristics and treatability that the best that can be hoped for is "cures for cancers". I was cured. In the future more will be cured.
Phage I was so moved and convinced by your story that tomorrow i will be getting full maximum chemo plus gamma radiation to kill all the cancers and selling my house to pay for it so that I too can live for 23 years in a cardboard box.You would not have a spare room would you?
I will work for food.
Thank you Phage
