What's crazy is the fact they don't have a cure for this shit. Nobody should have to die from this terribly disease called CANCER.
Yeah, my pops be taking test for prostate cancer which they found no cancer, he's good but that shit is worrisome the older he gets. I try not to focus on it though.
RIP Big Brother Dwayne Wiggins. Thank you for the music
Is it someone else you're talking about or is Dwayne Wiggins what you're talking about? I just wanted to know if there was someone else, something else coming down the pike

As much as it sucks to see Legends that I grew up listening to pass away at such an early age, and anyone under 70 is young in my opinion, all we got to do is push play to bring him back to life to hear him singing and playing his guitar
Rest in peace Dwyane Wiggins. Hearing news like this always give me the blues

There's no one strain/type of cancer......
Like it can act differently for different people and the different areas of the body it's in
Think of Cancer as an umbrella term. Covid, Flu and Pneumonia are all types of respiratory diseases,..... that's cancer
Your treatments and approaches can be different for the over 100 different types of cancer.
But there is hope mRNA vaccines may be able to help cure / treat some types more effectively.
