So… your bones can fail you. Or more specifically your bone marrow, which is arguably the more important part since it produces your blood and whatnot. It’s called Myelodysplastic syndrome, or MDS.
Now often this is a result of some kinda chemical exposure or cancer treatment, but there’s a bunch with no know causes. Just happens to you when you’re over 50, or before you’re 5.
This progresses to leukemia, which I don’t think I need to eli5 for you why that’s bad.
