Answers:
Cancer, in its simplest form, is a cell gone wild. It multiplies as any other cell in your body and then corrupts other cells in the process. Once it get rooted, it can spread throughout the body by various methods, i.e., bloodstream. When there's enough of these "cells gone wild" it can cause death because it takes over normal body functions, sometimes stopping those functions - like tumors in the brain - as in no brain function; lung cancer - as in not breathing; stomach cancer - as in not able to eat. You get the picture. The problem medical science has it trying to stop it. There are many drugs that can stop cancer. But they also stop the life in the person. The trick is to kill the cancer without killing the person.
