want to hear my analogy about cancer?

its like a weed. weeds are like other plants but they grow faster and take over. even when you pull it out or poison it sometimes it grows back

you can add to it

Update:

doctors are like gardeners. they do their best to help good plants grow and they know more than normal people but they cant do everything and they didnt make the plants or the weeds in the first place

Update 2:

i had to stop to get surgery early

    Chemo & radiation are like herbicides. Kills the weeds but sometimes does damage to the surrounding plants.
