Hi there,
Yes I truly do believe that we will beat cancer one day. and we aren’t actually that far off!
The problem is that not every cancer is the same and even in one person’s body their cancer can evolve so two cancer cells may be completely different.
The cure will be different for everyone and so we need to find as many ways to beat cancer as we can to make sure that we can treat every type of cancer. We already have good treatments for melanoma and breast cancer but not for the harder cancers like pancreas or brain cancer.
It would feel amazing to be able to help. I have met a few of the people who we have cured of cancer and talking the them makes me feel so so proud.
Was there anything else you want to know?
