      Very good question. Paul and Martha have given fantastic responses to a related question here: /lutetiumj15-zone/2015/06/13/is-there-a-cure-for-cancer-yet/

      I think if you asked someone 50 years ago whether millions of people would have a pocket sized computer that they could carry around with them, make calls, surf the internet, play games etc. they may have not believed you. But most of us carry smart phones now that can do all of that and much more.

      So personally I believe that one day there will be a cure for all cancers. Science is progressing so fast right now and with all of the past achievements it’s hard to put a limit to where science can take us.

      Cancer is probably the most studied disease; with so many great scientists working on it, I think we will get a cure one day.
