Comment from pharp
I really like what your have penned, write down to your author's notes. Yes, senior citizens lives matter. My mother is 91 years young and was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010. She had a breast removed and underwent radiation treatment only. She is cancer free and is now suffering with Alzheimer's disease otherwise she is in perfect health. As far as myself, I am under the care of three specialist not to mention my primary doctor and spends the majority of my days in their office. I pray that I live to reach the age of my mother in my right mind able to take care of myself. Last week I took my mother to her cancer specialist doctor and her next appointment is not until September 2017, what a blessing. Thanks for posting sorry about being long-winded. You have my vote and the very best in the contest. Blessings....................Portia

Comment from Judy Couch
Unfortunately many doctors don't agree. They won't make the effort to save an older person that they would make to save a young one. We've encountered that problem with older adults that we were responsible for.

Powerful writing about the horrible wait for diagnosis and prognosis for cancer patients. You seem to stick to the rules of the competition as well as a great message of understanding for people in this position. Best of luck to you in the contest.
