(CAUTION) Sticking My Neck Out - (20 Hours After I Survived In A Cut-Throat World!) - IMRAN™

Caution, scary image of my face - fine, and a cleaned up 20-hours later view of the incision. That is the maybe 8-inches throat slit where the surgery was done through. I am only sharing it as people asked how it went. I did not post the one from soon after waking up because the cut looks fresh as if I got treated like John Wick. 

Honestly, I almost did not make it out alive. But God is kind, and the medical team was great. So, I am still here and you will have to continue to read my stories!

Life is clearly a cut-throat game. I am so grateful for the great medical professionals and technology, the employer provided great medical insurance, and the prayers of each and everyone who cares and loves me. Thank you.

Cancer, Life, Death, Cure, All Matters Of Timing & Society's Priorities - IMRAN™

I have had family members die due to cancer in Pakistan. In the USA a girlfriend of mine died of cancer aged 30 nearly 25 years ago.

Ironically, it was exactly the kind of cancer the young lady in the story below was able to be saved from. "Experimental Cancer Therapy That Targets Genes Gives Patients Hope," reports Washington Post.

A lot in life, disease, cure or death is a matter of genes and pure fate & luck. A random exposure to something can bring about the start of a deadly condition. An equally random or accidental event in a lab can find a miracle cure for deadly disease.

It made me think of how many people lost too young could be saved if money was invested in medical science and research instead of on the creation of death machines by governments and on even more frivolous things by individuals.

How great would it be if sleazy politicians did not yank away health insurance and medical benefits from the poor to give tax breaks to the already super-rich. I would love to pay lower taxes, but not if I know it came from leaving the poor and suffering to die for lack of money and insurance.

How wonderful would it be if the sickeningly rich people buying stupid and ugly paintings for $110 Million instead spent that money on hospitals and cancer research centers. I would be quite happy to see that even if they put their names on top of the buildings in gold letters with neon lights (though my sense of aesthetics would possibly require hospitalization).

Any doctors and healthcare professionals reading this, what do you think of this therapy? And others,including those who have lost someone to cancer, what do you think about my point above?
