Science and reasoning?

Yesterday, some event made me say something totally 'non scientific' to which my sister said, "How come you say this being a scientist" I gasped and could not control my tears. My mind was saying something and my heart refused to accept it. Its wierd how when it comes to family and people whom we love, we defy all laws of universe and science. Sometimes, we just refuse to accept the truth. Science might say: Your father has heart complications. Needs to cut down on calories. You might agree. But, you might think, let him have just one laddoo. It wouldnt hurt! Science might say: Your mom needs rest. She should not cook. You might agree. But, you might feel, wish I could just have that one piece of aam-ka-achar made by her. Science might say: Cancer is still fatal (although this is a common belief which I dont buy) You might agree. But, You would still not give up. You would still think there might be some remedy unheard of which might work! One might be an established surgeon. But, his hands would still tremble while handling those forceps while dissecting his kin! Science might assume logical dimensions, but when it comes to loved ones, you defy logic. Science might believe in hardwork and reality but sometimes you wish to believe that miracles would occur! P.S:-I am not getting sad or anything. So please no sympathies and what happened ROS comments:D
