Your most favorite topic about health searchable on Internet
(Health)
The one health condition that we
all worry about whether we are rich or poor, healthy or sickly is the on- going
problem of cancer awareness. Every day there are millions of people searching
something on the ever exploding informative Internet about cancer research,
different types of cancer, cancer symptoms,
researching cancer and the ever
growing problem now over the cost of pharmaceutical cancer controlling- medications. The cost
of life saving cancer drugs is disturbing more than even having the disease,
well almost as sad. Cancer is a popular issue these days.
The problem is world-wide and is
killing people of all ages. Everyone is constantly concerned with catching the
disease before it overtakes your entire body and suddenly you find that there
is no hope for you. So we research on the Internet tests. Yes tests for breast
cancer, colon cancer, skin cancer, brain cancer, pancreatic cancer and on and
on till you thought of every part of your body that can possibly fall to the
disease. It can make you crazy even if you happen to be the healthiest person
on the planet presently. The terrible disease can suddenly ravage your body
tomorrow without any signs at any moment. It sounds like a fictional horror
movie but it is not. This is real life or death for people on this planet the
only planet with life as we know it. There
is no place to hide or to go from possible cancer.
So, yes what do we do? We
constantly search the Internet for news of new research or great new drugs or
look for the possibility of preventable cancer causing diets or cancer
care of patients. Cancer is my favorite topic about health searchable on the
Internet because it is interesting how many turns and pitfalls the subject goes
through. Recently there was a 15 year old boy who developed test strips for
early detection of pancreatic cancer where before his discovery, there was no
early detection tests for scientist and doctors. Internetatly interesting!
I learned from Internet searches that politicians
in the United States get large campaign contributions from pharmaceutical
companies and they voted to not put any restrictions on the price of cancer
healing drugs. So, important medicines are legally being sold not any more at
$7 dollars a pill but for $700 dollars a life -saving pill. I learned from the
Internet searches that there is a hospital injecting Polio
into people’s brains to successfully cure brain cancer. The Internet is the
gateway to the world of knowledge and trends.
Searching the Internet can make
you laugh, cry, want to be an activist or just want you to check out of
everything possible. At times it can be too much information to bear. I get
upset when it comes to health matters because at times the knowledge of things
can only foster frustration. For example, all my life I watched the Jerry Lewis
Telethons to help combat the disease of multiple sclerosis and each year he
would raise millions of dollars and show a suffering child struggling to stand
or with limbs going in all different directions while being confined to a wheel
chair. All they did was make faster wheelchairs with no cure in sight. After
cancer I think I will search that on the Internet..
