Poll about cancer "cure"

[Monica]

Most doctors from the western medical establishment use the term 'remission' instead of 'cure.'

The medical establishment has and does use whatever term they like, but don't allow others to do the same. They have declared themselves the authority and routinely censors anyone offering alternative treatments. They use the term 'cured' to describe someone who managed to stay cancer-free for x number of years, but only if that person used conventional treatments. If the person has been cancer-free for that same number of years or even much longer but used alternative treatments, and then tries to share what worked for them, the medical establishment tries to shut them down, calls them quacks, or even puts them in jail.

So it sounds to me like the use of the term has much more to do with profits, than anything else.
