Dealing With Cancer; Getting to Grips With It

Cancer is a group of diseases that involve the uncontrollable growth and spread of abnormal cells. Good healthy cells in the body have a normal life cycle: they grow, divide and die.

The problem arises when the abnormal cancer cells go berserk, grow uncontrollably and sometimes outlast and over take the good healthy cells.
