We Can Hope

There is only one thing I really, really recall from the movie "I Am Legend" with Will Smith. Remember that part at the very beginning where Emma Thompson's character is being interviewed by Good Morning America because she created some sort of cure that was tested out on people and they were cured of cancer? Hearing the interviewer say "You have cured cancer," and having the Dr. say "Yes, yes....Yes we have" was -the- scariest part of the movie for me. For a split second, I thought "But...if you cure cancer, something worse is going to follow." And sure enough, three movie years later...you get the picture.


I don't know. I guess I've always believed that nature will always find a way to control the population. Unfortunately, I believe that cancer is one of those ways. It's a horrible thing. I've lost many family members to cancer and I've seen friends and other family members fight the damn disease, but when I hear people say "We must find a cure!" I can't help but shudder. What if we do find a cure to all cancer, and something worse comes along? Then what?


However, there's that glimmer of hope. This is it. This is for those loved ones and women who have fought and survived or simply fought bravely against breast cancer. May this monster go away one day.
