I liken chemotherapy to bleeding a patient with leaches. It might sound ‘good’ to our understanding of medicine, but it sure seems like killing a fly on a plate glass window with a sledgehammer.
I agree. Not too far into the future, we will see chemo as utter barbarism as well.
There may be some indirect lessons from it, though: there are people who survive both the cancer AND the chemo.
And that’s all I’m saying. A few on this thread seem to have missed the subtle point I was attempting to make.
