The unvarnished truth: Imagine going from "You have 3 years to live" to "You have no more cancer but old age will get you in the next 20 years."

Once we solve cancer, we will need to solve longevity, the greatest health problem in the world.

I would take old age any day. The process around dying of cancer is horrible.
