Some people, like Christopher Reeve's wife, have gotten lung cancer even though they never smoked.

Let's not condescend to victims of these diseases by implying they "self-inflicted it" with their dietary intake or overeating.

I agree strongly, let's not blame a person because they need to be hospitalized. Bad things happen to good people too !!
