For all the money we have spent on cancer, I have to say that I think the return on that investment has been disappointing.
I couldn't agree more, and it's not just cancer.
The Jerry Lewis Telethon for Muscular Dystrophy has raised about a $2.5 BILLION dollars in the last 40 years.
Where's the progress/cure?

Try getting a motorized wheel chair out of them...my cousin’s son had MD, needed one, all they offered was what he had standard wheel chair. He did live well past what was expected, but did it bed ridden and unable to speak.

Then take a look at Susan G Komen....your donation was suppose to go for breast cancer research..she funnels it off to Planned Parenthood.

Red Cross we know their track record from returning WW2 Soldiers and from what they did with the donations when 9/11 happened.

Only place I know of that has made great inroads on fighting cancer is St. Judes. 80% or more cure rate. And it is FREE to the families of the stricken children, from all over the world.
