How life changes....

How life changes...So many things we take for granted.....

We evolved from the "Primeval Soup" of life on a new world which would be called Earth. . Fighting our way upwards along the Evolutionary road and becoming the dominant force over other species because we had a brain, legs and arms.
We developed a life style and social behaviour befitting our intelligence but in the long climb upwards and believing in our collective dominion over all forms of life, we blew it completely.....
Mankind is the only species on this planet that will kill or maim just for the sheer hell of it. BUT, having said that Nature does just as good a job. She will indiscriminately pick people out at random and regardless of race , age or creed give them something they didn't want.

DISEASES...In many shapes and forms. What does it matter if you live in a dirt village in Africa or India or in the frozen wastes of Alaska. On the high rolling plains of Mongolia or in a upper class apartment in any city on Earth.
You can be destitute or have more money than you know what to do with. No country is spared. Diseases have ravaged and pillaged our world for hundreds of years and medical science is still struggling, still coming to grips with what we have.
And that is where you and I come into the picture. You have been diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease. The world as you know it comes to a grinding halt and everything crashes around you. It doesn't have too. ! We ask the question...."Why me, what have I done to deserve this". You are told that there is no cure. If you are a person who is capable of accepting a life changing condition but also ready to fight this disease and to make the most of it and knowing that you may be able to prolong your life , if only for a short time and by coming to terms with what you have and accepting the many forms of help that are available life will be a little bit easier for you.
Its all out there just waiting for us to say.."Yes, please help me".
But it all goes back to that "Primeval Soup" that we came from. In that seething cauldron of liquids, gases and magma, huge electrical storms that lasted for thousands of years and volcano's gushing forth there came, out of all of that a little known creature. Lets call it 'Man'.. As he grew upwards to what he is today he bought with him, out of that 'Primeval Soup' a whole host of other life forms, many of which may have laid dormant for thousands of years.. We will call them diseases.
In many parts of this highly developed and highly socialized world Motor Neurone Disease is still unknown. Many Doctor's are still only finding out what it is and many have still never heard of it. The human body is and shall remain a mystery. There is talk of 'cloning' a human being, God help us, that may or may not happen. But will it stop this eternal fight for survival from the effects of something like Motor Neurone Disease...
I DON"T THINK SO
