Synopsis
:
Cancers are produced by cells that have gone mad. Normal cells, on the
other hand, are the sanest things in the world. They are polite and enjoy
the company of other cells. As a community, they work together for the
good of the many, are well organized, hardworking, and content with
their lot in life. Heart cells enjoy pumping blood, brain cells would not
change places with skin cells for anything under the Sun, and no way
would any of them do anything that would jeopardize the health of the
body they so carefully constructed. Cancer cells do not care about any of
this. They do what they want and go where they please. If they decide to
build a large tumor in the middle of the brain, well, that is what they are
going to do, even if it kills the body they are living in.
