Why is colon cancer considered to be the only cancer that can be prevented and cured?

please answer a.s.a.p., i mean now, or before morning

Can't imagine where you heard that from. Not true.
You can live well, eat healthy, etc to possibly lower the chances of getting some cancers, but nothing prevents cancer except maybe dying young. Many cancers can be considered cured if you've gone a certain number of years without it recurring, but it's never 100%.

It's not the only one. If people do things deliberately, like smoke, they can cause cancer (lung cancer) so your statement is incorrect. Also by exposing yourself to harmful drugs, like cocaine, people can develop conditions that lead to cancer. Chemicals, like cleaning fluid, can cause liver cancer, as can alcohol.Colon cancer is Not the only one.

Colon Cancer isn't the only cancer that can be cured, Hodgkin's Lymphoma is one of the most curable kinds of cancer where the 5 year survival rate is likely between 95-99%

And really any kind of cancer can be prevented with living a healthy lifestyle and having annual check ups like pap smears or the HPV vaccine.

Your statement is incorrect.

The likelihood of contracting many cancers is decreased through good health habits such as not smoking, eating a variety of foods, limiting fat intake, maintaining a healthy weigh, and getting regular exercise.

Many different cancers may be treated successfully with surgery, chemo, radiation, cancer recurrence-prevention therapies, or a combination thereof.
