There are plenty of other people that have been diagnosed with deadly diseases. If we had a state run health care system, then we'd need to cover them. We do not. How do you pick and choose which diseases we should provide coverage for? If the answer is that we need to medicate all people who have been diagnosed with deadly diseases, then we need to have mandated health care, which I support, but we do not have it at the moment.
Again, those of you that are so angry they are cutting this particular program - what do you cut? If you do not know the ins and outs of exactly what is being cut and what isn't (and I sure don't) then you can't claim that this is the wrong program to cut.
