If it was "too late" why did these "heroic real-doctor" exert any effort? Shouldn't they have known better? Being "heroic" and "real" doctors.
The guy chose to be a lab rat after his 9 months of "alternative medicine" and 5 years of "real medicine" failed him. These "heroic doctors" failed him just like the "unheroic doctors".
As I said, cancer isn't an exact science. People who think it is either know nothing of cancer or are just unthinking bootlickers. Hopefully one day we'll have a cure for cancer.
Once we better recognize it's a family of ailments, the populace can better understand the challenges to its various treatments and how we need to invest more into it.
I wasn’t saying the doctors were heroic. I was saying the drastic measures to help him after he dicked around too long with fake healers meet the description.
I understand the scepticism, but in this particular case is unwarranted.
