Originally, my best friend and I planned to take a self-driving trip along the Yili Ring Road, but her sister suddenly diagnosed with stage II breast cancer and the type is not good. She has been heartbroken these days, and the trip has fallen through.

Her sister belongs to the classic strong woman type, with an undergraduate degree from Peking University Guanghua and a graduate degree from an Ivy League school. She returned to China and has been working at Tencent ever since, and her position is not low. Last month, she suddenly felt unwell and went to the hospital for a check-up, where she received this result, and it felt like the sky had fallen. She is unwilling to resign for treatment, unwilling to undergo a mastectomy, worried that if she gets treated and returns, all the hard work she put in during the first thirty years of her life would be in vain. Her best friend has been persuading her that nothing is more important than life, and although she has listened, she still can't let go and is in tears.

In recent years, breast cancer seems to be becoming more and more common. My aunt was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer two years ago and has been actively treated for two years. She is now no different from a normal person. Another good friend's mom had mid-stage breast cancer in 2020 and underwent a mastectomy, and she is now basically fine.

Reflect, let go of yourself, don't be angry, take health check-ups positively, everything else is not important in the face of life. May all women never suffer from breast cancer in their lifetime.
