Beastie Boys are a key figure in the music industry since the ‘80s. They are among few that stayed true to their music credo in influenced artists in the past 20 years. Having a new material fresh with Nas, Beastie Boys announced in the same day some sad news for the fans. Adam “MCA” Yauch announced that he has a “very treatable” cancerous tumor in his salivary gland and a nearby lymph node. Unfortunately the band cancelled their tour and new materail launch this year until Adam is completely recovering.
He is one of the celebrities fighting this year with cancer. Fortunately Patrick Swayze is recovering from pancreatic cancer but the lovely “Angel” Farah Fawcett lost the battle with this cruel disease. Having so many celebrities in this unfortunate health situation, makes you wonder how new cures can help and how usual individuals like we are, can access them. Innovation is the key word but there are cures that go beyond medical expertise and sometimes normal people cannot access them as they are not well known or advertised or allowed. There are tratements that Europeans consider as safe but which in America have no acceptance from the medical committees. Maybe these celebrities are the key to making them public and making access to these possibile for anybody in this tragic situation.
