"Ling Yi Zhao Xin"

The game blogger died six months after fighting cancer
Life ends at the age of 27
The reporter learned that the real name of "Ling Yi Zhao Xin" is Ling Ping, a native of Dazhu County, Dazhou City, Sichuan Province. Before suffering from cancer, Ling Ping updated his game video on social platforms, and the role he chose in the game was Zhao Xin, so his video account was called "Ling Yi Zhao Xin".
Ling Ping was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer at the end of November 2022, but he did not make public news of his illness until January 4, 2023. On the same day, Ling Ping, who had not updated the video for many days, finally updated, but the content of the video was not the familiar game screen of netizens, but the "pathological diagnosis report" and "admission certificate" with his name written on it. At the time of the announcement, Ling Ping had completed his first chemotherapy treatment, and he wrote on his video account: "Life is impermanent! In the advanced stage of colon cancer, those who planted their own fruit could not complain about anyone because they ate this fruit, and they only wanted to walk peacefully... The second chemotherapy will start tomorrow, and it's a bit unbearable. ”
At that time, many netizens heard the news that he had cancer and left messages to cheer for him.
In the following six months, Ling Ping's short video content also changed from updating the game to his anti-cancer journey.
In the initial anti-cancer process, he was also very positive and optimistic, "I eat well, sleep well, have fun and earn one day a day!" Rush is over" "No matter what period he has, as long as he can eat, sleep, and pull without too much pain, he will be satisfied"... He also advised fans and friends to pay attention to their bodies.
Gradually, as his condition worsened, Ling Ping's daily physical changes made people look distressed, and the torment of illness often made him unable to sleep, and he would sometimes update the video late at night: "After squinting for half an hour, I woke up in pain and couldn't sleep." On March 17, Ling Ping updated a short video saying that the chemotherapy results were not satisfactory, and "the countdown has begun." ”
Even in the last days of his life, Ling Ping insisted on updating short videos, but he was no longer able to speak when he faced the camera...
At 11:24 a.m. on June 5, Ling Ping's family updated the message through its account: "Ling Ping is gone", and the picture is "Zhao Xin" in the game character, which is also Ling Ping's short video avatar.
Many netizens have left messages of condolences when they heard the news, "Go well all the way, may there be no sickness in heaven."
Colorectal cancer, one of the five major cancers in China, is usually detected in the middle and advanced stages. The data shows that the 5-year survival rate of patients with advanced colorectal cancer is only 12%.

Why is the time from diagnosis to death so short? Is colon cancer so dangerous? The reporter interviewed Chen Min, attending physician of the Department of Anorectal Surgery at Run Run Shaw Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine.
Patients with advanced colorectal cancer
Try to get the chance of surgery to achieve tumor-free survival
Chen Min introduced that among all gastrointestinal malignant tumors, colorectal cancer is relatively one of the malignant tumors with positive treatment and better prognosis in terms of incidence rate and treatment effect.
The reason why the blogger's condition progresses quickly is related to the type of cancer pathology he diagnosed and the stage of the disease at the time of diagnosis. If the cancer is advanced at the time of discovery, the treatment effect is relatively poor. Chen Min said that about 20%-25% of all patients with newly diagnosed colorectal cancer will have distant metastases, but this does not mean that there is no hope for treatment.
For advanced colorectal cancer, Chen Min said that the clinic is mainly divided into two categories: resectable and unresectable, and targeted treatment is carried out.
"According to international authoritative data, the 5-year survival rate of advanced colorectal cancer patients without surgery is only 10%; If patients with advanced colorectal cancer that can be surgically removed, the 5-year survival rate can reach more than 40%. Chen Min introduced that at present, through the multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment model, more patients with advanced colorectal cancer can get surgical opportunities, achieve tumor-free survival, and then prolong survival time.
Song Zhangfa, chief physician of the Department of Anorectal Surgery, Run Run Shaw Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine, has received many patients with advanced colorectal cancer at first diagnosis.
One of the female patients, 40 years old, had a medical examination seven years ago for blood in the stool. CT reports suggest that the female patient has multiple suspected tumor metastases on the liver. After further examination, he was diagnosed with rectal cancer with liver metastases.
In terms of the patient's condition at that time, direct surgical treatment was not possible, so the anorectal surgery team perfected genetic testing and formulated a treatment plan for the female patient: through chemotherapy combined with targeted drug conversion therapy, hoping to transform the unresectable tumor into a resectable state.
After eight treatments, the anorectal surgery team won the opportunity for the female patient to operate, and successfully operated on bowel cancer combined with liver metastases. After surgery, the female patient underwent relevant adjuvant chemotherapy and had a good prognosis.
During the follow-up process, the female patient had two single metastases, lung tumors and liver tumors, and through local treatment methods such as surgery and radiofrequency ablation, she spent 5 years of survival, and is now in a tumor-free state of survival, and the quality of life is no different from ordinary people.
How can young people prevent and treat colorectal cancer early?
Chen Min said that for young patients, colorectal cancer is mainly divided into two types: "genetic" and "sporadic".
Patients with hereditary colorectal cancer have a clear family history. If there are 2-3 or more bowel cancer patients in the family such as parents or grandparents, it is recommended that colonoscopy screening can be done after the age of 18 to diagnose hereditary related diseases early.
Sporadic young colorectal cancer patients are mainly related to bad living habits, such as staying up late, working pressure, smoking and drinking, high-calorie, high-fat eating habits, and insufficient dietary fiber intake, all of which induce the younger incidence of colorectal cancer. In addition, young people are less vigilant about the symptoms of physical discomfort and often come to the doctor only when severe symptoms appear, which is also the reason for the high proportion of patients with intermediate and advanced bowel cancer found in young patients.
"It is recommended that young people quit smoking and alcohol, exercise more, and control their weight. Develop the habit of regular physical examination, colorectal cancer is gradually evolved from benign polyposadenoma, active physical examination can be detected early, early treatment, so as to prevent the occurrence of colorectal cancer. Chen Min reminded.
