Reply to comment by bottom in Cancer vaccines are showing promise. Here’s how they work. by nastratin
I am too! I lost my grandaunt to it a few years ago. Had stomach and trachea cancer( I think? was in the neck, they wouldn't tell me much) in that order. Fought it for a decade. The cancer kept relapsing. In the end she died watching TV. Was peaceful as far as deaths go, her organs had too much and failed
her life's goal was to make a hospital for the poor people around her hometown. Even though she was Dean of the local college and head of the local government hospital, she lived in a tiny flat had no servants. Even when she was 80.
But the money just wasn't enough. The cancer ate at it and inflation destroyed any chance of it working.

It’s horrible isn’t it. I’m sorry. She sounds like a great person
