I have been curious for some time about people who strictly follow Veganism do when they become ill? I know for minor events Health Food Stores and what not have medications that are vegan friendly, but what about major diseases such as diabetes, cancer, or even involved in an auto accident, ect?
Anyways, I am curious and please don't say that poeple who follow veganism never get major diseases because that cannot possibly be so. I realize their are potential health benefits, but no eating habit is a sure fire way of avoiding disease. Thanks!

Well, beebs abd blckbyrus that was I was wondering because all pharmaceuticals have gone through animal testing and a lot have animal by products in them. I think it would be hard, but I agree with you if I was vegan and I ahd a major disease I think you would have to do, whatever it is you have to do.
Answers:
Our goal is to create a vegan society in a few hundred or few thousand or whatever years. If that actually happens, we can develop our own medicines and anything else without animal testing or ingredients. Until then, we will do whatever we have to do to survive. There is nothing hypocritical about it. It is not our fault that we live in a world with no respect for animals.
We just do what we can. To refuse critical treatment just makes us look radical, veganism IS NOT radical, just some people are.
