While my sister, Jo, was at NIH being treated for melanoma, the doctors were treating her with stem cells, chemo, and experimental drugs. They have a building that houses cloned animals and human-like bodies (I am not sure of what the term is actually). They are the cutting edge of medicine in using stem cells to treat everything from disfigured people, to those who are terminally ill with cancers. It is online at the NIH website if you wish to look it up.
Until doctors find a way to break the DNA codes of the various diseases and such, people are going to die. Until then, we can only hope that those who try the clinical trials, and financially support the researchers, we just can hope and pray for a miracle.
In the back of my mind, in all honesty, from what I saw at NIH, I do believe that there is a cure of so many diseases. It is just that the drug companies want to keep a lid on it. That way they have the money, power, and control.
