As those cells divide they are subject to the same transcription and translation errors that gave rise to the cancer the first time. Some of their daughter cells may get errors that make cancer less likely, and others more likely. But the more precurser cells that are 'close' to becoming cancerous, then your overall chances increase.

That’s recurring cancer. What causes a cell to turn cancerous? If radiation, chemotherapy and cell removal doesn’t eradicate it, they need to find out why a cell develops abnormally. Only then can you create a cure.
They have proof carcinogens cause cancer. Not everyone is affected, though, so why some and not all? It isn’t inherited yet runs in families. Why do more women than men get breast cancer? More cells?
Animals get cancer. Dogs don’t eat soy, smoke, eat burned food, sniff carcinogenic materials or eat much sodium, yet get cancer. What’s the common denominator in people and pets?
