Excuse me, have u been a cancer patient before?Originally posted by Mr Fugue:
why should we donate just becos someone got cancer as he/she didn't take good care of health in the 1st place??
Let me tell you, being fit doesn't means u will not be a cancer patient all your life.
And cancer can strike even the fittest among you. So, doesn't matter how well he/she looks after his/her health, that person is still prone to cancer.
i am one of the examples.

agree, but theres some tht got the disease tht not becoz they anyhow eat... there are more than one factor tht cause ppl to fall illOriginally posted by Mr Fugue:on a local food TV show where they intro the good food in singapore, in the crab episode, they interview one customer who is said to be a regular crab eater...........
the voice (that show has no hosts one) asked him, ''you know crabs have high cholestrol, why do you still eat it so often??''
he laughed it off, ''heck care lah~!! I just eat!!''
soooooooooooooo, do you think people deserved it?? they know it's bad for their health, they still eat!!!

it's okay you people don't wanna give.
but at least please, don't encourage others who still have the heart to give to stop giving.
because if u dun wanna give, dun give. you can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.
so giving without loving is just as good as not giving. period. so for those who wanna give to the cancer society, i support ur actions and your generosity is most admirable and respected among all selfish people.

i'm trying to clarify with u people that being fit doesn't guarantee you not diagnosed with cancer one day.Originally posted by miaomiao11:why u? heredity ah?
cancer strikes anyone, regardless of age and health.
i've been thru that so i can bravely say it here. -

it's destined~!!
if you're destined to have cancer, you will have.......
if you're not destined to have cancer, you won't have....... -

That is the myth partly perpetuated by the government..."Live a healthy lifestyle and you will not fall sick"...Originally posted by The Emperor:i'm trying to clarify with u people that being fit doesn't guarantee you not diagnosed with cancer one day.
cancer strikes anyone, regardless of age and health.
It almost seems the government is trying to pin the fault on us when we fall sick, so we have to pay for expensive medical treatment.
In fact, statistically speaking, it is cheaper to the nation in terms of healthcare if people die from heart attacks, since 50% of those who do die from heart attacks die from their first attack (data is outdated now and figures may change but you get the drift). On the other hand, people with a healthy lifestyle may live longer. But we all have to die one day...old people tend to have a higher risk of cancer and treatment of cancer is more expensive.
So perhaps if the government wants to save more money, they should encourage us to eat all the crabs we can find and all die from our first heart attack at a young age. -
Wrong...you should call the police to fine the jaywalker and jail the hit-and-run driver. Then you can walk off...Originally posted by dragg:that does not mean they dont deserve help.

there's no right or wrong, rather, how u perceive it to be. -
Cancer changes my point of view about life.
It teaches me that life is fragile and we ought to take good care of it.
Not only that, we need to find out where our passion lies and fulfill our purpose we have here on earth.
Time waits for no man. So, cherish this short life and start making a difference in other people's lives. Better to be generous than keeping everything to yourself. I believe the generous will eventually be rewarded, be it here or in the afterlife.
Those times of struggles and pain taught me the meaning of love and opened my eyes so I could see who are the ones that are truly my friend and my love ones.
I then realised what love and friendship is all about. -
I agree with most except about the karma and cancer.
One of my husband's family relatives died of cancer recently - she is a doctor herself. Her husband is a doctor too but left earlier (not cancer) than her. Her daughter has cancer too but still treating and under control. My aunt is still fighting intestine cancer , and her husband died of liver cancer. Her daughter has some health problem but unidentified.
I believe the reason for their suffering of cancer is because of their lifestyle, especially the way they eat. As for the doctor who passed away, it is hereditary. Just like my friend who have lost dad, mum and sister due to brain tumor/cancer. He himself has won a battle over intestine cancer but he can't have kids for fear of passing the bad gene.
Its really unpredictable for those who suddenly hear the bad news. For those who have bad genes - its not their choice either.
Karma - I believe charity is an important element in karma. Do more good deeds so that you will be rewarded in short-term karma or your next life. -
so many in the family has cancer?Originally posted by mumof2:I agree with most except about the karma and cancer.

sometimes, it has nothing to do with genes.
i'm the only one in my entire family history to have cancer and miraculously recovered from it. all thanks to God. -
Agree on the cancer part, it can strike anyone.
EXCEPT those who smoke so much and get lungs cancer.
Kidney patients, some of them really don't care much
about their health.
Likewise for Heart Attack/high-blookd pressure patients.
Again, not all of them are like that, but bad enough.
So I guess, the only charity worth donating, if you want,
is Cancer Foundation. -

Cancer is something not to be played around with.
For those who haven't been through it, they don't understand the pain and agony one has to bear during all the treatments. It's currently the number one killer disease in singapore. -
there are many factors involved when it comes to cancer. it is not just smoking. dengxiaoping is a heavy smoker but was extremely healthy.

Yes, and Nat King Cole was a smoker and died of lung cancer at 45. There are more people like Nat King Cole than Deng Xiaoping out there. Question is: do you know which are you?Originally posted by dragg:there are many factors involved when it comes to cancer. it is not just smoking. dengxiaoping is a heavy smoker but was extremely healthy.
