yes i found out that the average life expectancy has not increased by much... so you were rite on that..... but....

you stated earlier that lots of people died from cancer but they just didnt know what it was.... well actually very few people died from cancer..... look at the average life expectancy before and after anti biotics

so we tied

You're still missing his point - they didn't have the name "cancer" to put on things a long time ago, but people were still probably getting it.

:frown:

I feel for you brother; never give up hope though, as hardcore as Lymphatic cancer is, there are many survivors out there. Keep the faith & stick by them; they'll all need as much love & support as they can possibly get. Make sure they never give up; miracles do happen.

They're all in my thoughts and prayers. :heartpump:

You won't be able to tell much about what people died from by looking at the average age. The reason the average age was so low was because infant mortality was so high. If you lived until you were 15 in the Paleolithic time period, when the average life expectancy was only 33, you then would have a life expectancy of 54. If you made it past your first few years of life you had a good chance of living to your 50's or 60's.

Those people that died young probably did so because of infectious disease. However that still leaves all the people who made it past their childhood...and I'm saying that those people probably had a good chance of dieing from cancer. Back then you would have died of "old age" for all they knew.

ok lets put it this way..... if you were greatly un educated..... and lived in a remote location........ and you were about 70 years old........ and you started dying from cancer but you had no clue what cancer was.... would you think it was old age or some sort of disease.... after watching your parents and some friends die from old age without any sort of problem.. then you suffering for a long time .... wouldn't you think something different was going on..... these people didn't know what cancer was but they were not retarded........ tell me if I'm not clear on this

i also think that people that lived passed there early years made it to there 50s..... obviously a child is more susceptible to disease then a full grown adult...... but i think that these people were prone to death in any stage in there life..... there was no home free stretch were they didn't die from disease....


yay this is my hundredth post by the way :smile:
i know its not relevant


and I'm sorry about your struggles onemorerobot cancer is diffenantly a tricky bastard ..... as long as you and you loved ones don't give up hope things will turn out better then worse no matter the outcome

and on a side note.. my father just discovered a revolutionary human monoclonal antibody that shows amazing results in wiping out cancer very fast.... unlike chemo it has virtualy no toxcity.. if all goes well it shall be pass clinical trials in about 6 months to a year....and i truely believe it will cure millions of people from cancer....
so if they can hold on long enough... atleast there is hope on the horizon

Damn, my cousin went for a second round of all the tests. Lymphoma, confirmed. Starts chemo ASAP - they say it's a serious case.

When my Dad went through Chemo, he would constantly wear these ridiculous hats to cover his bald head.

His favorite one said "Bad Hair Day", or on old Boston Celtics cap that he loved.  Here are some pictures :smile:





He wasn't very healthy in those, which is why he's so thin and pale.  Here is a shot from when he was healthy



Robot, I hope your cousin has a speedy recovery  :heart:

And Bom - well, you know I wish you the same too.  If I can do anything, please just call me.  :hug:
