Cancer
Cancer is a disease that is characterised by having cells uncontrollably divide and causing tumours. Not all tumours are cancerous, also known as "benign tumours", but they can be. Cancer treatments are available, such as surgery and chemotherapy among others, so for most people, it isn't the end of the world.
There are plenty of charities and resources out there to give advice and care for people who have cancer. If you want further information on what cancer is, this resource would be useful.
Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is a type of cancer that forms in the breast. It mostly affects women but it is not exclusive to women, man can sometimes be affected. There are guides available for everything including how to deal with cancer mentally, and how to cope with the treatments and how to stay healthy. Depending on the type of cancer, there are a number of different treatment options available, such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The books provided here include guides on how to keep yourself healthy via your diet, guides to living with breast cancer and advice on how to survive cancer emotionally.
