More harm than good

I met an old school mate, who is about the same age as me. He told me that his wife had gone for cancer treatment for the past two years. She is weak and has no energy and vitality. The cancer treatment is not doing any good for her.

Another classmate, who was practicising as a doctor and had since retired, said that in many cases, the cancer treatment does more harm than good. It is better for patients to look for alternative treatment, rather than go for chemo or radiotherapy.

There is now more people who have formed this opinion, after watching their friends and family members gone for the futile treatment.

I shared with them the story of Dr. Charlie. They agreed with the thrust of the story.
