The number one worst way for our society to deal with cancer is to pretend it doesn't exist. You don't solve problems by "escaping the reality" of them, that's how you get into trouble. I hope campaigns to raise awarenesa about diseases like cancer never stop, or else a whole lot more people will die early and I might be one of them.
I understand the temptation of wanting to live in a cancer-free fantasy land, but it's selfish to want the whole world to change just to allow your fantasy to live on in your head.
Is it normal that I'm sick of pink ribbons and the whole campaign?
