I do not believe that a cure for cancer will be hidden away because theres money to be made in failing treatments. It makes NO SENSE at all. Because if money was the important factor they would just charge as much for the cure as they get from all the ineffective treatment before you die.
That way they get the same cash and keep you alive to charge you for other treatments at a later time..

My mom got diagnosed with breast cancer last year. She has just finished chemo and radiation and is back to physical therapy, except now she's lost her vision mostly and has type 2 diabetes(she drinks a lot of diet soda though so I'm not sure she wouldn't have already gotten diabetes.) This article scares me because so many people have posted of deaths and my mommy isn't looking very well these days compared to before chemo and because it confirms my fears of chemo. I tried to get her to go all natural like how I've heard they do in Canada, but she refused.
96% of all cases of all cancers are self limiting. We just don't tell YOU guys that. We want your business.

I had two kinds of breast cancer, one was agressive. I had a tiny hard lump and a much bigger mass. Had chemo before and after surgery which shrunk the mass down to nothing or almost nothing, and then radiation.
I am now cancer free.
*FACT* There is no clinical evidence to support the claim that conventional methods of treatment of cancer are of any benefit to the patient.

How long ago was this? less than 4 years ago?
From what i understand, the problem with Chemo is that the cancer, even if "cured" by it, will resurface a few years later only this time, it will be more resistant to further treatments as well as be more agressive/faster spreading.
Thats basically what the article in my OP says, anyway. That is the the purpose of the entire thread.

Not really, to be "cured" you have to be cancer free for an extended period of time.
