    I am a cancer survivor, but wouldn't be if I lived in Canada or England.The survival rates in the United States is 35% higher than in the two listed. We will be sorry if we allow socialized medicine.

    How_would_I_know is right - but survival rates are only based on a five year survival.

    I have had diagnosed cancer for over 10 years - With NO drugs or Medical Interventions!

    The Medical Industry ONLY deals with SYMPTOMS - NOT CURES!

    The CURES are ONLY found in NATURE = Pure Foods, Water, Exercise and most importantly SUN EXPOSURE.

    But believe whatever you want! You MUST Live or DIE in your beliefs!

    American women have a 63 percent chance of living at least five years after a cancer diagnosis, compared to 56 percent for European women.

    American men have a five-year survival rate of 66 percent — compared to only 47 percent for European men.
