Rare diseases

If you think about it, in this day and age when almost all diseases are already curable, we still hear about so many new ones that are truly scary. Like mesothelioma. This type of cancer is caused by asbestos. It is said that when a person is diagnosed with this disease, it’s already in the advance stage. Men are more prone to mesothelioma, but there are also women diagnosed with this rare form of cancer.

There are many rare forms of cancer that are being treated all over the world at the moment. The medical world is doing their best to find a cure to each and every one of it. I remember when my mom was diagnosed with a rare form of kidney disease known as Amyloidosis. There was no commercially available cure for it in 2002 until my mom passed away in 2005. The doctors could only sustain the life of the other organs to prolong the life of my mom. But it also ended.

I hope that in time, say 5 or 10 years from now, all known diseases in this world will have a counter cure.
