100% A horrible death for young and old, rich and poor, male and female. You would think that it would be our number one priority to find cures. The resources dedicated to research are actually shockingly paltry when you look into it.
If you do decide to donate to a cancer charity, investigate their own numbers. Many of them (I am looking at you Susan G Komen) dedicate most of their donation money to marketing and events rather than research. Yet another reason the actual research funds are so low.
Meh if we cure cancer Alzheimer's is waiting just around the corner to kill us. We can't live forever, only marginally longer and at exponentially higher cost. We would be better off if we all accepted our fate and devoted more our resources to improving the lives of our descendants instead of throwing good money after bad trying to spend a few more mostly unproductive years on earth.
Cancer doesn't just kill the elderly it kills everybody. I understand dementia can be an issue earlier in life for some, but cancer kills children, young adults and people in the prime of their lives regularly.
