In my opinion if you are an adult (young-middle age) you are less frail and susceptible to secondary infections and cope better with the side effects of the treatments or it is more likely that you could be elegible for surgery.
Regardless, there is never a good age to get cancer.
The younger the better (as long as you’re not a baby!). Our bodies capacity for growth and repair gets less as we get older. Treatments for cancer can be very harsh. Younger children will heal quicker from the effects of surgery and treatments than adults, so while I’d never wish it on anyone, I’d say that you fight things better when you’re younger.
