Cancer is a completely random event. And since it is random there is no cure for cancer only treatments. There are indicators that may suggest that you could get it but they aren't always right, or you may have no indicators and get it. Our current treatments target cells that replicate at a higher rate than other cells, but they are other cells in our body that rapidly divide which become causalities of the cancer treatment. So you essentially kill the body to save the body. Some people can handle the treatment and some can't.
Take it from someone who has been going through this for three years, this is the best way to explain it. I have the best insurance, so can't say i don't have the means for the cure just haven't found the right combination of treatment yet. Every person is different.
