When I watch TV I often hear the doctors (actors) assure patients and their family that they got “all of the cancer” during removal surgeries.

In my mind… I always thought that cancer was a lump of cells… multiplying uncontrolled… and at some point along its margins, it borders normal tissue.

How can you possibly cut perfectly between normal tissue and cancerous tissue?

    Cancer is never cured. Testing goes on your in remission. If your lucky it won’t come back or go bad again.
