To each his own...

I met a friend a few days ago. He had cancer, and was diagnosed in June. He didn't tell me because he don't want me to worry. He went thru chemotherapy and the cancer marker shows the cancer is gone. His doctor advised him to have a surgery to remove whatever remnants of tumor in his body.

His cancer was at an advanced stage. But looking at him now, you would hardly notice he was ill. He has rosy cheeks, weight normal and generally active.

He said that he was nauseous from the chemo treatment but did not throw up. He refused to give in to the nauseum. He even went to work after his chemo sessions.

He avoids red meat and barbequed meat.He eats veges, eggs and fish.

I have heard the various dietery regimes of cancer patients who are coping well. Some take meat, some don't. Some avoid conventional treatment like chemo and radiotherapy, some embraced it. Some did qigong, some don't. Some go for Chinese medication, some look the other way.

To each his own I say. Find the combination best suits you!
