If You Were Granted The Power To Cure JUST 3 Diseases Which Would They Be? You were given the power to cure ONLY 3 diseases/conditions, which would they be? This was hard.
- Cancer - Mentally Challenged - Blindness I left off diseases that were preventable but it was really hard to leave off HIV/AIDS. Paralysis was another toughy to leave off as was Hypertension and Diabetes. [PC edit] [Edited 6/30/07 9:00am] Make Afros not War | |

- Cancer - Retardation - Blindness I left off diseases that were preventable but it was really hard to leave off HIV/AIDS. Paralysis was another toughy to leave off as was Hypertension and Diabetes. retardation is not disease it is 99.9% due to malpractice of doctors and can we use words like "physically challenged of handicapped" please because i do find that word Offensive due to the fact i had a handicapped sister who was mywhole universe and left me at age 12 due to her Cerebral palsy. now the ones i would cure Hiv/Aids ( it took my uncle) Diabetes ( took my father away) Cancer | |

Handicapped would be the correct term and even more so that R word is never used that is a label placed on those who are considered "abnormal" by the masses of those who claim they are "normal" | |

Paralysis and blindness aren't diseases either, they're effects of other diseases/injuries. And a HUGE co-sign to what Finess said. I often think of your sister.
Mine: HIV/AIDS Cancer Chronic Obstructive Lund Disease (not actually sure what it's called in English, nicknamed "smoker's disease" here... my mom has it. | |

I think the term most health providers use for "mentally challenged" now is developmentally delayed or developmentally disabled but alot of Dr.s stil use the diagnosis of mild MR, moderate MR and severe MR at this hospital I work at. Don't take life too seriously, noone gets out alive. | |

Go check. My edit was at 9:00am - your post was at 9:20am. Now unless I have the codes to the Org that would make it pretty impossible for me to be able to change the time stamp eh? Anyway, FYI, the edit was changing "retardation" to "mentally challenged". [Edited 6/30/07 9:51am] Make Afros not War | |
