Cancer is caused by a mass of cancer tissue (tumor) that interferes with brain functions such as muscle control,sensations,memories,and other normal body functions.tumors composed of cancer cells are called malignant tumors, and those that are mostly composed of noncancerous are called benign tumors.

We don't know if it can affect everyone but when people find out they have cancer they are very scared
