today is a gloomy day for all of us in the family. we were told that the doctors have confirmed that my favourite uncle is suffering from chronic lung cancer. the cancer has spreaded to his brain, and there is next to no hope for recovering already. in short, there is not much time left for him.
i know the question that's playing in your head... you will be wondering if he is a smoker right? the answer is, he's he is a big time smoker. his lungs has turned black.
if you are wondering if there was early warning? in my opinion, there was, my uncle has been constantly coughing and suffered flu on and off. he is a very stubborn man and refused to go for a thorough. he took medicine and is happy that they work as the flu went off. but he has been losing way lots of weight. but he still his usual happy go lucky self.
not till last week, he vomitted and had headache, also fever. on sunday his wife called my mum crying saying her husband has no strength to even lift up a spoon to feed himself. but he will never listen to my mum, so my mum told her to call me other uncle. he went over and litterally dragged him to the hospital.
he was first diagnosed with diabetics, then after scanning and x-ray, they detacted growth in his lungs and brain, then after further check up, his was finally diagnosed with lung cancer and the growth has spread to his brains.
so smoking has proven to lead to lung cancer, so if you really care for yourself, please don't smoke. it brings no good but in return, it will only lead to danger on yourself. think about your family and friends, don't dissapoint the people who loves you, don't make them worried, don't make them cry.
cancer really is a silent killer and a time bomb. you might be well and kicking one day and dying the next. so please my friends don't light that stick, think for urself, think of the people who cares and loves you. *peace*
