A disturbing truth?

Today I did some reading on ENT because I’m feeling bored and I have 5 exams to catch up this semester.
I found something disturbing.

………Tumors of salivary gland origin have a better short term prognosis, but many of these patients die with recurrent tumors many years later……………

No wonder everyone in kursk, they were so worried about me. Bcos, the line above was found in our little ENT book written by professor Konoplya, page 160, line 4-6.

Thinking about it, I will have few more years left to live, I wonder if it’s enough for me to complete things that I wish to do. It is possible for me to be married and have children? I always wanted a daugther of my own but in case I’ll die young, then who will take care of my kids? So the not-so-selfish thought should be I shouldn’t get married and bring life to any kids.

But then again… I refuse to give up my life and a chance to be loved and be happy….
so I do more further reading in different textbooks and I find…..

See…. life is not that hopeless afterall and besides I had the whole deep lobe of parotid gland which the tumor contained in removed totally. And according to oxford oncology handbook, with wide surgical removal, this type of tumor will be cured.

Our life is in our hand. How long you want to live and how happy you want it to be depends on your will. How determined are you to continue to live? I will never let the other 8% of chances of death to take my life away. Because I know I was here for a reason. Yvonne once told me that I was made for the weak. I know I am here to protect the children, to protect people who needs comfort.

Well, enough of this sappy mood. I’m going out shopping for my backpack. Tata~
