One of the scariest medical reports a person can receive is the diagnosis of cancer. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, cancer holds a consistent spot as the second leading cause of death in the United States. Alternately, news of remission or successful treatment is celebrated by cancer patients and their families. Between diagnosis and recovery is the treatment process, which can be long, painful and difficult.
