I cannot believe how flippantly you're responding to someone who told the story of their dad passing away due to cancer, and yet you have the gall to also whine about downvotes.

Yes, but cancer is not a solved problem, and so people will get it and eventually die. Also, who cares if people live 40+ years? Those with cancer statistically don't, yet drugs can increase life expectancy. That's the point.

An extra day with your loved ones is paradise. Taking a drug and potentially gaining years?

Come on mate, it's not a surprise you're being downvoted as your attitude is a disgrace.

You can't fold every individual into some sort of "average" case when the individualism isn't favorable. The universe doesn't work that way.
