In this episode of How to Speak Cancer, we take a closer look at one of the most important — and often misunderstood — distinctions:👉 solid tumours vs. blood cancersUsing simple language and visual, garden-based metaphors, I explain:- why some cancers form a lump (tumour)- why others do not- how blood cancers affect the whole system - why understanding all this is so important- and why not every tumour is cancerThis episode is designed to help you understand what is happening in the body – without overwhelming medical language.Based on my book How to Speak Cancer, this podcast is part of a mission to make medical communication clearer, more human, and easier to understand for patients, families, and healthcare professionals.✍🏻 Explore the blog: https://www.kathrinkunze.com/books/how-to-speak-cancer---the-blog/📘 Explore the book:https://www.kathrinkunze.com/books/how-to-speak-cancer/📩 Get in touch:[email protected] this episode helped you, feel free to follow, share, or leave a review — it helps this message reach the people who need it most.#HowToSpeakCancer #CancerEducation #HealthLiteracy#MedicalCommunication #UnderstandingCancer #Oncology#PatientEducation #CancerAwareness
