In 30 years, we will look back on chemotherapy with the same perplexed revulsion we reserve for leech therapy.

Leech therapy is far less barbarous and far more efficacious (for certain things).

What's the correct approach? Genuine question.

Incidentally my dad was friends with a few doctors who absolutely hated chemotherapy. I think two of them were radiologists and one was a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist died of cancer rather than submit to chemo.

The issue with chemo is how untargeted it is. Patients are given are toxin hotile not just to cancerous cells, but all cells in their body. I see a future where a nanotechnology therapy is used that will affect the groth and division of only cancerous cwlls while leaving healthy cells in tact. Radiation therapy will be seen as barbarism.

Ok, but right now if you had cancer what would you do? Or would you just die gracefully?
