Cancer

Cancer, also known as a malignant tumor or malignant neoplasm, is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Not all tumors are cancerous; benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body. Possible signs and symptoms include: a new lump, abnormal bleeding, a prolonged cough, unexplained weight loss, and a change in bowel movements among others. While these symptoms may indicate cancer, they may also occur due to other issues. There are over 100 different known cancers that affect humans.

Tobacco use is the cause of about 22% of cancer deaths. Another 10% is due to obesity, a poor diet, lack of physical activity, and consumption of alcohol. Other factors include certain infections, exposure to ionizing radiation, and environmental pollutants. In the developing world nearly 20% of cancers are due to infections such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and human papillomavirus (HPV). These factors act, at least partly, by changing the genes of a cell. Typically many such genetic changes are required before cancer develops. Approximately 5–10% of cancers are due to genetic defects inherited from a person's parents. Cancer can be detected by certain signs and symptoms or screening tests. It is then typically further investigated by medical imaging and confirmed by biopsy.

    Cancer

    by: Carpark North

    Alone I count the hours
    And wait until the phone has rung
    I feel the fear beneath my lungs
    I know what she'll be saying
    My hand is shaking like a leaf
    I know she might be gone before
    Before the week is done
    I can't say goodbye
    And I don't wanna try
    I hope they removed your cancer
    I will be the last
    I will not run from the past
    To run from the past
    I hope they removed your cancer
    Now you would always tell me
    That grief and sorrow make us strong
    But I just feel I can't go on
    Shall I inherit sunshine
    I feel it slips away from me
    I hope to find it one more time
    Before this life is gone
    I can't say goodbye
    And I don't wanna try
    I hope they removed your cancer
    I will be the last
    To run from the past
    I hope they removed your cancer
    If you go
    You will see
    What we talked about could be
    On the other side of the sea
    On your boat
    In the sun
    I am sure it won't be long
    In my sleep we'll meet again, so long
