Idea is not hyping, but awareness. Of course, purpose of these boards is to make money, however, it was by coincidence that these co's have comparable treatments.

Having had 3 relatives pass away with cancer, one of which had neck cancer, makes one look at the company and it's product/treatment more than just the stock. A company and it's stock price are two different animals.

Having been though a real life experience, I have posed the question about which of the companies' treatments would one choose in a life/death situation.

There have been some remarks by some posters that present NO FACTS, NO SUBSTANCE, etc. For those posters, if you are ever in such a situation or even remotely similar situation, perhaps you'll think about things then and look for facts, substance, etc. at that point.

Additionally, when you have been through the experience of someone choking on steak, going into a coma, and being in that state for a year, it will also give you a different perspective on things and you'll see much more passion and a look for realism with regard to treatments. You look for existing treaments, you look for experimental treatments, you assess which may or may not work.

It was SuperBowl weekend 2 years ago at Trattoria del Arte in NYC - check the records.

Perhaps having been through the above experiences (and all it takes is one) you feel differently about the question posed about the treatments. Again, check the records, and how it took half an hour for the EMT to get there.

I hope that no one has to go through that experience.
