You have asked a very good question. Unfortunately I would need more information as to what type of cancer your Aunt has if your question is specific to hers.
There is a lot of knowledge about Cancer and related treatments out there today. Most is geared to specifics types of Cancer rather than cancer as a whole. Breast and Uterine Cancer, thanks to foundations such as the Susan B Anthony Foundation is on the forefront of research for these two diseases. As result some great treatments and better understanding of the disease has come to pass.
I'm not sure if doctors or scientists truly understand the cause of cancer. I believe their is still a great deal of debate over whether some Cancers is caused by a genetic defect or a virus.
Until Scientists and Doctors resolve this debate the thought that certain foods,second hand smoke and other causes thought to cause cancer are suspect in my mind as well as the minds of many others. We need definitive answers and while some scientists say they have them others say they are wrong. There needs to be a consensus before an actual cure to defeat this disease can be found.
These are my thoughts and what I know about this dreadful disease. To learn more you need to do your ones research for which there is plentiful amounts of to look at. To find out what you need to do to protect yourself from cancer I would suggest if you are female you talk to both your family doctor and gynecologist.
Learn the proper way to do self-breast examination. Doing so allowed my wife to learn of a lump in her breast, which was malignant, before it metastasized. A self-breast examination saved her life and can save yours. So follow you doctors advice as to how to do so and do so often. ]
