So today I found out that Kelly Preston die of breast cancer, also today I found out that I have no idea how cancer works.
What I knew:
>>cancer = tumor (cells divided uncontrollably and no longer perform their roles)
>>sometime tumors can not be removed (which I understand when it comes to organs like the brain, you can’t get to it without breaking some other part BUT I don’t get it why you can easily cut out breast tumors or skin ones???)
>>sometimes cells from those tumors will travel through blood and that leads to tumors in other places, why is that possible??
And those are my main question, why can’t you just go in and cut the tumor out in those non-essential organs?
