Cancer by bad luck!

Cancer- happens due to 'bad luck'...says a study conducted by Johns Hopkins Medicine research study. How lame is that? Are we talking about "luck" in this age? 

I am sure they must have reasons which support their findings, but are they telling us- that the maid working at my home doesn't say...33 year old Pramila's daughter has cancer, when asked she said-  "Kismat kharab hai madam"(it was bad luck, that my daughter has got cancer).

Ofcourse being ill  is bad luck- but whose bad luck? In my case, I, lost my father to cancer. So whose bad luck was it - Papa or me? He left and I am here! The theory of "bad luck" can be attributed to any disease, why limit it to cancer only? Being someone who believes in the power of science- I could not relate to it( Bad luck theory).

I am not convinced, by the 'bad luck theory', however I agree with them -to focus more on detecting cancer at early stage when it is curable. 

For people who are interested in reading the article can read here. It is a great article, i suggest everyone should read it. The classification is done nicely and most of the reasons and risk explained are true.

Happy New Year, Papa!
