It's come to fascinate me how modern medicine is simultaneously miracle-performing and devastatingly primitive. We can repair tiny structures, regrow organs, eradicate diseases from existence. And yet, you could fall unwell with something like ME/CFS which ruins your life, and medicine has literally nothing to give. A total blind spot.

Perhaps a reality check that the human body is immensely complex, and medicine is not magic. We've just been doing our best all along, and we need to continue doing so with support for medicine and science.
