| Well, that's bad new I guess. My folks are dead and other old folks get afflictions and die as well like we all will eventually. LIke Benjamin Franklin said, "The only sure things in life are death and taxes." |

I just realized my comment seemed like it was saying it's as bad as cancer. That's not what I meant.
Isn't cancer where your cells multiply too much?
If so, then it would kind of be the opposite because cells attack each other, making fewer cells instead of making a lot more. |

No, I'm going to disagree with my earlier statement of it being the opposite of cancer, and say it's the opposite of AIDS, because AIDS is where your cells don't protect you against diseases, AID protects you against everything, even your own cells, which is why it's bad. It destroys your cells. |
