It is important to identify different types of experiences within the cancer community and avoid determining unrealistic expectations that can lead to feelings of inadequacy or failure between patients and their loved ones.
If you have cancer, it is normal to have a wide range of emotions – anger, sadness, hope, discouraged, despair and others. This is completely normal if you are deep in the throat of shock, trauma and depression, such as I was, and mental health help is required.
Not long ago, cricketer-politics Navjot Singh Sidhu Made Headlines During a press conference, promote her so -called miraculous diet as a treatment for cancer, even though her wife had to undergo every comprehensible modern therapy. After that incident, I was submerged with the messages of patients eager to quit my medicines in favor of Sidhu’s diet.
I received many notes from individuals with well -meaning individuals around the world, chasing me not to adopt such a diet, suggests that it can avoid my stage 4 lung cancer. This only served me to disappoint me more, especially when I struggle with a devastating disease. The last thing I want is guilty and blamed me.
Celebrity cancer can give serious consequences – and, my celebrity doctor – can give serious consequences -, and, I say, the spread of misleading stories about the treatment and recovery of cancer. It is important to justify those who promote these myths, ensuring that accurate information is shared and the complications of cancer experiences are recognized and honored.
We should stop words like Stage 3 and Stage 4 carelessly without the true understanding of his implications. Additionally, we need to be more cautious with the word “treatment” while discussing cancer. In step 4, while a cancer can enter a discount for a few years, which is not equal to a treatment. Such a language is not only misleading, but potentially harmful. The public is worthy of truth and transparent information, especially about highly sensitive subjects like health and well -being.
