Is there any person who wants to be plagued by an incurable disease. Cancer of all which not only has killed the and also the young ones. But someone thinks is the best wish for as a disease. Lol!
Dr Richard Smith, a former long-serving editor of the British Medical Journal and now the chairman of a health technology company, caused outrage by claiming in an online blog that cancer is ‘the best way to die’, and that the country should therefore ‘stop wasting billions’ trying to find a cure for the disease. Lol!

He further state that preventing cancer deaths would just mean that people die of even worse ailments, like dementia or organ failure. Cancer, he said, allowed patients time to say goodbyes, settle their affairs, ‘visit special places for the last time’, and, depending on their beliefs, prepare to meet their maker.
Dr Smith claimed that his view was a ‘romantic one’. His statement has receive criticism. As cancer patients and their families found it highly offensive.
What do you guys think? Any reasoning in what he said?
