Profwag posted a list of cancers that do well when treated with chemo/radiation. Most of these are lymphomas (Hodgkins/non-Hodgkins), which I've already addressed. Choriocarcinoma, in low-risk patients, but in high-risk patients it requires aggressive treatment and the diagnosis is much poorer.

"Childhood sarcomas (w/ radiation & surgery) 70-90" - Profwag

This is somewhat misleading because of the wide range of conditions and it doesn't include chemotherapy:

http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/pdq/ ... onal/page5

"The largest prospective pediatric trial failed to demonstrate any benefit with adjuvant (chemotherapy) vincristine, dactinomycin, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin."


"Acute lymphocytic leukemia 60" - Profwag

Aggressive chemotherapy is indicated, with serious long term complications.

... because it's poison.

I'm of the old school where gay still means happy. Homosexuals hijacked the word ''gay'',or they think they own the word called gay.

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Merry merry King of the bush is he
Laugh Kookaburra Laugh Kookaburra
Gay your life must be

It's ok to not understand a century of existence. There are a few people that hide their head in the sand.

For the record here HF2, I am not a 'cringer'. I don't believe that Eteponge has shown any cringing in his Moderator decisions either.

If you think that cringing is the same as being polite and giving someone the benefit of the doubt, then maybe you're right. I also understand the minor differences with words and slang that range in their acceptability from country to country. Not to mention when English is a second or third language to a member. If I don't, I hit Google for an explanation before commenting or I will ask that member for clarification.

I'd like to take this opportunity to ask you directly if you are now playing games or if you are purposely trying to p!$$ the Moderators off? I welcome your rebuttal.

Stop trying the change the topic or inject off-topic irrelevence and spam (Trolling)

Stop trying to cause drama with other posters in this thread, or trying to get this thread locked (Trolling)
