The doctors here say HPV-positive throat cancer has better survival rates with treatment, and it isn’t from smoking. But from this hospital bill, I see the real difference: one feels like a cruel twist of fate, the other like a lifetime’s choice catching up. My thatha’s tobacco-related cancer—we’re selling our old paddy fields to pay for it. The HPV kind, they mentioned, often needs less aggressive chemo, which means less cost for medicines that come in tiny, gold-priced vials.
