Curious

The  illness in life
Some can be cured
Often are a mystery
They have no cures
Many people are curious
So many dollars spent
On cures for cancer
Yet there is no cure
Curious why diabetics

That is a rare case
A cure is not found
Mulipultiple sclrosis
Another illness
Without a cure
Polio also no cure 
Where are the experts?
To find a cure?
You would think with 
medical research
A cure for one illness
would be found

Over our lifetimes we all become familiar with diseases that beset us, and for many illnesses, the treatment is little more than a band-aid. I suffer from Sjorgren's, it's mostly overlooked but it does have a significant effect on a person's well-being. I always come away from appointments feeling let down....Delice

Hello Delice,Delice have you had this illness very long? Oh i do not blame you. Are you on meds for that? Just wondering. Enjoy your day my friend.

Interesting Darlene. Lyme disease is also one that can be caught repeatedly. No vaccine, some meds for symptoms, long term effects and no cure. It is common where I live in highly populated tick area. You have written a poem about something that all of us can question. Well done. Have a nice day :)

Hello Heidi, Yes I do questions these illness with no cures. I feel there should be a cure for at least one of those illness. Hugs.

Illness is a way to leave this miserable world. Many commit suicides because of it But you are right. For all the money we spend there are no cures for certain illnesses.

Hello Victor, Why does the scientist try to work on some of those illness for a cure? At least have one cure for one illness at least. that would be a good start. Enjoy your day my friend.

Heya Darlene, indeed there are very few real cures, but there are treatments and inoculations available, for some nasty afflictions, which can improve and extend quality of life, but your right sometimes a bit more than a bandaid is wished for, cheers David

Hello David Kayanagh, yes a bit of a bandage is great to wish for. Perhaps one day it could happen? Cheers! Darlene

Every body is a total mystery I think, what works for one does not work for another, we would need a million customized cures, and at times, we are in the hands of God, when things get bad, and there is no help, thank you for sharing this Darlene, :_

Sometimes life seems to be like that, and we feel imprisoned with no way out. You've asked some difficult and thought-provoking questions, the likes of which have been raised by people all across the globe for millennia. Your last sentence encapsulates the spirit of your poem.
