Loved reading that, especially the comments. Really makes you think how far we've come over the years, and we haven't really noticed. Suppose it's been so gradual that it's hard to. A cure for cancer would really be a massive milestone for me in the future (and maybe teleportation!)


I dunno, my stepfather just finished having prostate cancer. The "cure" is getting here, bit by bit.


That's fantastic :D ye hopefully we'll have a definitive cure in a few years, even for the people who only notice they have cancer when it's in its later stages.

Of course by the time we have a cure, there will be some other disease we have to deal with :P


wait, by 'finished' do you mean he died? because I didn't mean to say that's fantastic at all I assumed you mean he was cured?
