If that was the case, why even give her cancer? They wrote it that way to make her seem like a less likely candidate for the hammer, and provide more story potential. So far Mjolnir is doing the opposite and is making her cancer worse because it's exhausting her. I'm sure they have other story plans in the works for that. My concern is more towards she dies because of the cancer to cause grief on Thor to then make him worthy again. Which will make her entire arc and death about him instead of about her as a character and her own growth. That would be a horrible way to end it though, but Marvel has been known for turns like that. We're talking about a literary universe though where every facet is writer controlled for the purpose of the arc they are writing. But no, I don't think they'll go the 'magical cure' route. The title has been pretty adamant that she's refusing that, even from Mjolnir itself. If she beats the cancer, it'll be by human medicine. As a medical worker herself, that fits her personality they've used in the comics.

What was the point of making Thor unworthy at all if they're going with that plan? How is it possible that he has no knowledge of the universes colliding in the future as the All Father, despite them making it a point to verify that King Thor is indeed the same Odinson the main 616 continuity? Not everything Marvel does/allows their writers to do makes sense is what I'm getting at.

I seriously doubt Marvel will shoot themselves in the foot with the end game you fear they're planning though. They will catch so much shit if the entire arc served as a vessel to further Odinson's story and make him worthy again, especially if they kill her (I believe morons call that fridging, but only care when its a female character). We're in an era where Marvel allowed a writer to completely change an established character's costume just because the internet exploded after they let an artist known for erotic art draw her in pose that the public deemed "sexist and objectifying."

The only outcome I see is her coming out of the arc alive and well, one way or another.
