The Republican Party is a cancer that needs to be excised from the body politic. Period. They are so completely beyond the pale at this point that they’re one of the most extreme political parties on the planet. That’s a fact. That’s not exaggeration.

A top House Democratic source has also confirmed that Congresman John Lewis has passed away at 80 after battling stage IV pancreatic cancer.

My son Toby was diagnosed with leukaemia 8yrs ago and spent 3 yrs on chemo and 5yrs in remission,today he was discharged. I thought hard about posting this because I know how life can bite you on the arse but I wanted to thankyou all for your amazing support through this time.😘

Alan Dershowitz takes an interview I did with Maria Farmer months ago, cherrypicks quotes to pain her as "anti-Semitic," and then waits until she's battling two types of cancer and undergoing chemo to put out a desperate, shoddy hit piece

Sudha Bharadwaj suffers from diabetes, high BP, arthritis and ischemia Poet Varavara Rao has coronary heart disease and hypertension Shoma Sen is afflicted with osteoarthritis, glaucoma and high BP

Just imagine a movie, where the policemen surrounds a group of murderers and then announces "Police ne tumhe chaaron taraf se gher liya hai! Jinko high BP, diabetes, arthritis, heart problem, khaansi aur bukhaar hai, wo chupchaap yahan se bhaag jaaye!"

“The entire Republican Party, almost every elected official, bent the knee to Donald Trump” The legislative failures that come with a Democratic majority everywhere might be the chemo needed to save the party.

Lupus!

“The overwhelming prevailing clinical trials that have looked at the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine have indicated that it is not effective in coronavirus disease,” Fauci on Good Morning America after Trump promoted the malaria/lupus/arthritis drug as coronavirus cure. “I go along with the FDA.”

Free idea: Draw down the stockpile by giving free dosages to people prescribed hydroxychloroquine for lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. That way, it’s at least being used as an effective treatment.

🦟Hydroxychloroquine is a drug used in the treatment malaria, rheumatoid arthritis, and lupus.

1st date Cancer: Are you bored yet?? Scorpio: Kind of, are you Cancer: No, I really could just stare at you forever without doing anything else is that weird

The U.S. FDA approves hydroxychloroquine to treat malaria, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis but not for COVID-19 patients because of "serious heart rhythm problems and other safety issues, including blood and lymph system disorders, kidney injuries, and liver problems and failure."

"No words. Just happy tears. LAST CHEMO completed!!!!" Lula first gained the hearts of millions after a moment shared with her brother went viral. After 22 weeks and 13 chemotherapy treatments, she is announcing some beautiful news. 💕(📷:IG/kris_bowden/kbowdenphoto)

I wondered about this too; when was the last time you heard anyone mention gluten intolerance? Fibro, Lyme, restless leg... the population of somatic depressives is not inexhaustible and they can have only so many diagnoses at once. So spare a moment for the lonely gluten haters.

Interesting to note the Catholic Church has not recently raised similar “ethical dilemmas” re current vaccines against rubella, chickenpox, hepatitis A, and shingles. Or approved drugs against diseases including hemophilia, rheumatoid arthritis, and cystic fibrosis.

For those who don't know, & I hope you never do, chemo ravages the body. It's a poison to help fight cancer. It takes away everything, even from the strongest of spirits. Chadwick Boseman met cancer kids, performed & was an ambassador of goodness while enduring it. Just amazing.

It's the same group that suffers from chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, gluten intolerance, and a host of other ill-defined conditions that tend to respond to exercise and anti-depressants better than anything else. Coincidence, no doubt.
