Understanding Cancer
Cancer is a disease that is caused by the growth of
abnormal cells that are not controlled in the body. This
abnormal cell growth can damage the normal cells
around and in other parts of the body. Cancer is the
second leading cause of death worldwide. Cancer often
causes death because this disease generally does not
cause symptoms at the beginning of its development, so
that it is only detected and treated after reaching an
advanced stage. Cancer is a dangerous and deadly
disease. There have been many victims from this
disease. But, also many who managed to recover from
cancer. Here are the various types of cancer that attack
humans, or some related groups of cancer as follows.

attacks cells that form blood cells in the
bone marrow. Under normal conditions,
white blood cells will develop regularly when
the body needs it to eradicate infections that
arise. But another case with blood cancer.
Bone marrow will produce white blood cells
that are abnormal, unable to function
properly, and excessively. Excessive amounts
will cause buildup in the bone marrow so
that healthy blood cells will be reduced.
2. HEART CANCER
