[wings of fire]

do you have to have cemo for all types of cancer or are there somethat doesn't require it??
Also, what types of cancer are genetic and do both of your parents have to carry it for you to get it or does only one need to??

Many cancer types have genetic precedings but the majority its because - pollution, alcohol. tabacco, smoke, etc

Breast cancer seems to run in families, and it's a common concern for all women. We should all have regular check-ups and mamograms. The researchers continue to search, debate and change their minds about the causes for many illnesses including all types of cancer. Just because you have parents who've had cancer doesn't mean you'll get it. I had two cancers 17 years ago and I've been healthy all these years since surgeries removed the tumors - no chemo and no radiation. Some people may do better with those treatments and surgery. Neither of my parents and only one of my five sisters had cancer and her's was a different kind. Genetics certainly plays a huge roll in our lives, but it's far too random to lose sleep over. Don't smoke and don't live or work in a smoke filled area, get annual check-ups, be positive mentally, and most of all stop worrying! Stressful worry may cause as many cancers as pesticides, genetics, and cigarette smoke anyway! LIVE HEALTHY and BE HAPPY!

Cancer isn't "genetic" in the sense that "You will have cancer if your parents did". Genetics is far more of a crapshoot, and is also affected by what occurs during an organisms growth. Even if you inhereted a sensitivity to specific types of cancer, chances are that you may never encounter the required stimuli to trigger the cancer itself. You can seek genetic counciling if its a big concern in your family tree.

Cancer can be treated by surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, monoclonal antibody therapy or other methods, and there are even new recombinant drug treatments and DNA tagging experimentations that are constantly being tested on the fringe of science.
