An easy target, Dave.

My wife has Multiple Myeloma, a rare blood cancer and incurable. She has lived a year longer than predicted and going strong due to novel drugs made available at no charge by one of those rapacious drug companies.

Now I view the claim by the article as marginally believable. Cancer is too complex and its impact too individualized to get spun up by sweeping claims. But drug companies vary as do people.

Wow. I’m saying a mi sheberach, the Jewish prayer for healing and comfort, for you and your wife.

I once had a psych professor who told us that a scientist needs to view his own results skeptically. I think you may have a point. (Liberal “scientists” have forgotten that.)
