Again. I am arguing against the direction of the funds. That they could be spent better on supportive structures rather than scientists researching for something that will in all probability never exist.

We in Australia are very good at treating cancer and are getting better every year, but this is not due to people in labs doing experiments,, it's due to the nurses and doctors and other members of a multi-disciplinary healthcare team. Fund themz instead is all I am saying.

As for your personal attack, II have recently watched on average 1 person a week die from cancer at work for 3.5years. I know I make a difference in people's lives when they and their families go through what you are going through. But whatever, I am an uncaring person who doesn't know what "thinking positive" is.
