I couldn't agree more, but would venture to say that heart disease is the biggest threat. That kills more Americans a year than cancer does. Cancer comes in at number two.Chronic lower respiratory disease, stroke, accidents, Alzheimer's, diabetes, influenza, Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis, and suicide cap off the top ten.You know what doesn't kill many Americans? Terrorism.

(SNIP) I also had stage 1 cancer - a quick operation and it was done for, I really do feel if most people see the doctor earlier, that fewer will die or need more serious intervention - kind of like if you see the dentist you will have yoru teeth longer. ,. - ditto with heart problems. take care of it early and it will not be as big a problem.
