CANCER
By: Baysan Amir
Cancer is a disease caused when cells divide uncontrollably and spread into surrounding tissues; of course everyone has heard or passed
through the word cancer and maybe between billions of individuals, there are others who tasted this experience or know someone who's
trying to survive such an awful unfortunate occurrence journey. In this case how can we as family, friends and supporters keep their chin
up while they are suffering during their treatments periods.
Initially, in most cases, we can never attribute the causes of any cancer to one single factor. The main thing that causes cancer is a
substance we know as carcinogens. But how these develop or enters a person's body will depend on many factors, which can be divided
into biological factors, physical factors and lifestyle-related factors.
Thus, those cancer patients face a real battle into becoming one of the survivors although some loses hope and start feeling there is no
chance for pursuing their ambitions; The worst situation is when they experience times of distress, range of strong emotions such as
disbelief, fear, anxiety, anger and sadness which can be seen as a form of deep grief. On the other hand, the common side effect can be
most meaningful they would feel fatigue, pain, anaemia, mouth problems, nausea, dietary issues, hair, skin and nail problems.
Most importantly for those who have the cancer, they should know that this is one of the blessings that they pay no attention to, is that
God erases our sins whilst when we are in a state of difficulty or illness, yet many complaint, become negative and ask why god is putting
us through this sickness. Despite the fact that god only asked for our patience and return to him even after the life of sin.
In conclusion, what we as human beings are supposed to do, is to support them till the end by at least trying to help patients, regain sense
of normalcy, maintain emotional stability and improve their chances of insuring positive clinical outcome also by listening and
understanding them would be enough; this would help patients to stand up after falling and they will always look for a bright side door,
even if that door closes they will always search another one that is open!
