The gift of medicine

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

The year is 2040, and medicine worldwide is highly advanced. Humans no longer fear certain diseases, as vaccines have been developed for them. Cancer is already highly treatable and is no longer a death sentence as it was in the near past. There are even talks for further development of a special anti-cancer vaccine which should be produced in the following years. The life expectancy of human beings is estimated to be more than a hundred years with a prediction to reach even more in the following decades. Mental illnesses that were not completely treatable like schizophrenia will be due to our advanced understanding of the human brain. Nanotechnologies, such as robotics will further help in treating serious illnesses and during operations.

For the future of our country I wish the political situation to improve. That everyone should have equal rights without exception of gender orientation or other opinion. Today's situation is very poor in this respect and I therefore wish it to improve. I also wish that our government would be more concerned about people and less concerned about itself. I wish that nature continues to grow and that global warming does not get worse. The financial situation of our country is not so bad, but I wish that some jobs or teachers and others would get higher salaries. On the whole, as long as I try and work on our country and do not give up, I think we could look forward to a better future. Because I, too, as a young woman, want a good future for my future children.

I would like there to be world peace, even though I know that in this short time it will not happen and that there would be a better environment for all as people there animals. I want everybody to have a good time and nobody to feel bad. That there be great technological advances and that the government reveal government secrets.

There are a lot of fossil fuel cars on the road nowadays, although I am not a supporter of electric cars, but it would be ideal in the future to look for other alternatives besides electric propulsion, or to improve them. For example, LPG cars may be an ideal option; they exist today, but not to as great an extent as they could, and the starting price is also higher than for a conventional combustion engine. Another excellent alternative could also be hydrogen-powered cars, which would also have zero impact on the environment and our planet. We only have one home and we should protect it.

In 2040, I will be 70 years old. I will still be well and living a good independent life. Fortunately, I don't have to worry about ageing and declining health, because the elderly and other people in need are well looked after and their dignity is understood. There are small, cellular homes for older people where they have the security and companionship of each other and where they can get help or care when they need it.
