strong & healthy
i have a cousin, his name is cliff
my aunty (his mother) describe him as follows
He is so athletic was World Champion in Kali Stick Fighting,
strong mountain and bike rider,
averages 100+ miles a week,
snow boarder, fantastic martial artist
who has won so many matches
2 years ago he was diagnosed with Lymphoma Cancer
and since ever then, He has had extensive Chemotherapy
and radiation Treatments at Princeton University hospital
and 6 weeks more intensive new Experimental Drug Therapy
the first few month i heard about this
i feel so sad about him
when people think about cancer
they will think about life would very short
and there’s no hope, no real medication
cure for cancer is about lucky
some medication may cure one,
but may not suitable for others
it’s kinda genetic matters
i ever give him suggestion
about alternative medication
but he gently refused it
he is committed to Johns Hopkins Hospital
and to do anything else at this late date
would be detrimental to his life.
he is in their program
JHH is still the #1 for the last 16 years in Cancer treatment
to do otherwise would be not a wise thing to do
my thought..
my cousind is.. (sorry) crazy
he’s been in their treatment,
although he’s getting worse,
still he’s committed to them
but later on.. i understand him
in his blog’s description, he write this
Since Jan. 2004, my life has centered around battling lymphoma,
an aggressive blood cancer
in his blog and letter,
he seems very strong man
he’s not complaing about chemotheraphy side’s effect
just feel nausea, but from his picture,
people can’t see that he’s suffering from
Lymphoma Cancer, an aggressive blood cancer
since he was very athlettic,
his body very strong,
he can be worthful to give contribution
in discovering new cancer medication
even he’s life is getting short,
he proves that his life is meaningful for others
battling cancer now become his profession
that’s two new thought for me,
another profession and the importance
to have strong and health body
(which’s i always underrate it
for i thought, mind is important than body)
and i just realized
that i am so naive..
