Cancer is one of the dreaded diseases that take millions of lives every year. Cancer is characterized by an uncontrolled growth of the body cells, and basically invading each body cell that come its way. Cancer is categorized in many ways.
They could be benign, or malignant. They could also be categorized according to the organ of origin. For example liver cancer, bone cancer, brain cancer, and all other cancers that is applicable to each and every organ of the human system. Let us discuss a type of cancer that normally exists among men, the prostate cancer.
Cancer can be deemed according to the level of term when it exists. They are classified into stages. Let us take the fourth stage of prostate cancer.Stage four of prostate cancer is characterized by the sudden spread of the cancer cells, inflicting other organs and systems of the body. For prostate cancer, the cancer cells have spread throughout the entire reproductive organ or neighboring organs within the system.
The spread is so fast that even the latest advances of technology cannot stop the spread. At the same time, stage fur implies complications that are normally usual for those people who have a terminal disease. At times, this stage is characterized by frequent vomiting, normally because the body refuses to take in the medications that are suited for cancer patients.
Vomiting will surface if the human body surrenders drastically to the complications of the cancer and eventually giving up to it. Aside from that, normally there will be red spots on the patient's skull or other parts of the body since prostate cancer cells normally attack the bone cells first. There will be numerous spots within a patient's body to show that the other body organs are implicated by the disease.
On the other hand, with regards to the patient's health, it starts to deteriorate completely. The patient becomes weak, since the cancer continue to spread rapidly, eating any healthy cells that come their way. Since there are no enough cells to fight the cancer cells, the body system weaken until every healthy cells are eliminated.
Take note that when we treat the cancer the first time, only two things will happen. First, the cancer cells will stay at one point, or they will freeze, say for example for prostate cancer, it will not go beyond the prostate, or the second thing is it will trigger the cancer cells to spread rapidly until it invades the cells that carry out the most important functions for living.
If worse come to worst, we can no longer stop the cancer cells from spreading and eventually cause complications that might be the cause of a patient's death. This is the bitter reality. After all the struggles of pain and agony, if everything has been exhausted, but still the cancer cells continue to invade, we can no longer stop it. Even the highest form of treating cancer cells will not work. This time, we have to accept that it is really a game of life. Sometimes you win, most of the time, you lose. And eventually, the battle is over.
