~CARCINOMA- CANCER that begins in the skin. It can also begin in tissues that line or cover internal organs.
~SARCOMA- CANCER that begins in connective/supportive tissues such as bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, or blood vessels.
~LEUKEMIA- CANCER that starts in tissue that forms blood, such as the bone marrow. It produces large numbers of abnormal blood cells and enters the blood.
~LYMPHOMA and MYELOMA- CANCERS that are made in the cells of the immune system. ~CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM CANCERS- CANCERS that are made in the tissue of the brain and/or spinal cord.
Research shoes that there is a maximum of 100,000 victims diagnosed with CANCER per year. That's a lot of people! Follow this link to learn more. In fact, my cousin, AnnaMaria Kakis, died two years ago at the age of 19 years old. She suffered from LYMPHOMA. She had it ever since she was born. Then it left her for good, or so we thought. Turns out, she was in remission. So, make sure that if you have CANCER to get it treated as soon as possible, even if you think it's going away. It will come back, just like it came back for my cousin...
