Greed has taken over the world and sometimes those who have are the ones who are never satisfied. Greed is having a negative impact on the health sector. We have cases of doctors diagnosing people with cancer who do not have the disease and subjecting them the expensive cancer treatments, destroying the health of these people for personal gain. Today I read of another case of a doctor diagnosing patients with MS who don’t the disease and subjecting them to expensive treatments simply because of greed. Where is the love for humanity. Is money more important than someone’s life?

Cancer Charity Scam
Cancer research and treatment is a multi million dollar industry. Each year various organizations collect money to help cancer patients to get treatment and to fund research. How many of these people are genuine and how much of the money raised actually go towards the cause? Not a lot it would seem.
Four charities made headlines this week in a 187 million dollar scam. They are Cancer Fund of America, Cancer Support Services, Breast Cancer Society and Children’s Cancer Fund of America. In all of these charity most of the money raised was spent on cars, college tuition, luxury cruises, dating sites membership, gym membership and jet ski outings.
There is always room for fraud where charities are concerned because there is no accountability. While there are some genuine people in fundraising a great many are in it just to enrich themselves. It is a shame and a disgrace that while cancer patients fight for their lives as they battle this disease others try to enrich themselves from their plight. Shame on all of those involved.
Who Will Find The Cure
First there was AIDS now there is EBOLA and years down the road it will be something else. These diseases are springing up out of nowhere and there are more questions than answers. It is interesting and somewhat ironic that the more drugs and vaccines that come on the market the more diseases we have. Also interesting is the fact that the more money that is pumped into research for a cure for cancer each year, the more we see a rise in cancer patients.
We scratch our heads and wonder why cancer is now so prevalent. The truth is that there are a lot of drugs currently on the market with cancer causing agents. Drug companies of course promote these drugs as having great benefits and downplay the high risk of the users getting cancer.
I strongly believe that a cure can be found for cancer but if we are waiting for big cooperation to find that cure it is not going to happen. Cancer treatment drugs is a multi million dollar business. Drug manufacturing companies and others in the health sector make millions each year treating cancer patients. They are not going to be willing to give that up. If a cure is found it therefore has to be one that will make millions for these drug companies and others involved, anything else is a lost cause.
It is up to the people who really care about finding a cure to do the research and find the cure. A cure that those affected will be able to afford. The trouble is that they are not going to get the big funding that those who are pretending to find a cure are getting. Yet they must not see this as a deterrent. The little people must come together in unity and do the research. They must also be prepared to face roadblock and opposition from those who have something to lose. It is not going to be an easy road but know this one thing, it is up to those who care about lives and not so much the money, to find the cure. Until people realize this we will continue to see increase in the number of cancer cases. As for those man-made diseases such as AIDES and EBOLA ……well that’s a whole different story and I can’t seem to get past the word WHY?
The Benefits of Soursop {Graviola} Leaves
The soursop otherwise know as Graviola, tree is said to have cancer fighting properties up to ten thousand times stronger in slowing the growth of cancer cells than Adriamycin a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug. Unlike chemotherapy it kills only the cancer cells and does not harm healthy cells. It is said to be effective in twelve types of cancer, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreatic cancer.
The National Cancer Institute performed the first scientific research in 1976; the result showed the soursop leaves and stems were effective in attacking and destroying cancer cells. Since then the soursop leaves has proven to be a potent cancer in twenty independent laboratory tests. With all these amazing qualities one no doubt will wonder why the soursop (graviola) is not being used more in the treatment of cancer. The problem is that the soursop is completely natural and under federal law not patent-able. There is no way to make serious profits from it and that is where the roadblock comes up. One drug company invested almost seven years trying to synthesize two of the soursop’s most potent ingredients. If they could isolate and produce man-made clones of what makes the soursop so potent they would be able to patent it and make their money back. However they were unable to replicate the original.
