No.1 reflection cancer patients tell me in general during our in-depth convo: They wished they did not take their health for granted.
When we are younger, we can sleep late, party more, and eat everything under the sun and recover right away. We push our body and our health to the extreme in the name of work, money or pleasure. Time catch up to all of us, why wait until you get a big diagnosis before you realize that your health is important and your body deserves attention?
No. 2 reflection by my cancer patients: A diagnosis made me aware of what health looks like and where I can be.
Do you know what health looks like? Does Google confuse you with all the information out there? Consult your healthcare provider. Ask for reliable information. Set a plan as to what your health looks like (ps. not every person has to go through the same thing).
So ditch the mindset that doctors are only for when you are sick. Start caring about your health now.
