Cancer is the rapid growth of abnoral cells.

When you are older, these cells reproduce slower.

It would appear that we know little about cancer, and are still doing barberic things like radiation, however, we are gettting really good at radiation and can localize it.

Since I dont know you...I'll be honest....People tend to get a little bit overzellous about winning the war on cancer, and do something stupid to cause a premature death, when their body has been weaked by the cancer. It is not the time to go motorcycle riding, or not pay attention to personal hygine around your colostomy bag. Or not taking a minor leg injury serious, this is the time that an infection will kill you.

(I worked on the frindge of nuclear medicine). It's sad to say, but too many people die from just that.
