Yue Hong is a famous Chinese film actress who graduated from the acting department of the Central Academy of Drama. Although she is not the most eye-catching one in the Chinese film industry, her heroic beauty also left a deep impression on the audience.
However, she is such an excellent actress, but she has encountered many setbacks on the road of life. If fate is a script, then she must be at the level of difficulty. From failing the art exam, to divorce, to the tension between mother and daughter, to cancer, her life has ups and downs, which is more dramatic than drama.
In 1978, Yue Hong, who was only 16 years old, went to the construction site as a temporary worker in order to earn living expenses. She moved bricks and pulled sand every day, and although she was very tired, she was very happy. Because it means that she can subsidize the family and give them a better life.
In 1980, Yue Hong took the entrance examination of the Central Academy of Drama for the second time, and this time she was finally successfully admitted, and participated in many film works in the following years. However, the good times did not last long, and in April 2002, Yue Hong, who was 40 years old at the time, felt a little sick to her stomach after filming a movie called "Oolong Love".
At first, she thought she just hadn't eaten that day, which caused her stomach ache. However, for several days, she has been feeling some dull pain in her stomach, and some nausea symptoms. Yue Hong didn't pay attention to the abnormality of her body, but her personal agent noticed that something was wrong with her, so he immediately persuaded her to go for an examination. As a result, after such an examination, stomach cancer was directly detected.
Gastric cancer is a common malignant tumor of the digestive system, and its mortality rate is second only to lung, liver and bowel cancer. Since most of the patients have no obvious symptoms in the early stage, they often come to the hospital for examination, which is already in the middle and advanced stages, and the prognosis is not very good.
However, if you look closely for abnormalities in your body, you can still detect the signs of stomach cancer. Common symptoms of gastric cancer include stomach pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, etc., and early patients can also experience a feeling of fullness after eating. When there is diarrhea, constipation, stomach discomfort, and deep tenderness in the upper abdomen, it is also worth being vigilant and should go to the hospital for examination in time.
Knowing that she was diagnosed with stomach cancer, Yue Hong's hand holding the checklist couldn't stop shaking, her face was pale, the corners of her eyes were red, and her eyes were full of disbelief. For her, this is undoubtedly a huge blow. Yue Hong only felt that the sky had fallen, she cried all day long and washed her face with tears, and couldn't sleep all night long. She was worried that her family was in a hurry, and she didn't even dare to tell her relatives. After her eyes were swollen from crying, Yue Hong finally figured it out. It is useless to blindly evade, only by facing difficulties head-on can we overcome difficulties. In the end, she made the decision to go through the surgery on her own and did not intend to tell her family the news.
After the surgery, four-fifths of her stomach was removed. Thankfully, her cancer cells did not spread and did not metastasize, so she did not need chemotherapy or radiotherapy. After experiencing this cancer, Yue Hong's life has changed dramatically. She began to learn to maintain her health and learn to take care of her body. She no longer blindly works to make money, because she understands that life itself is the most important thing.
However, her acting career has not been so smooth sailing, and despite starring in many works, it has always been tepid. It wasn't until 2009 that her life finally took a turn for the better. Yue Hong, who was 47 years old at the time, successfully won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actress with the film "Let's See".
Yue Hong stood on the podium, and before she could speak, her eyes were already red, and she couldn't help but burst into tears for a while. Life has given her too many tribulations, and in the storm, she stumbled along the way. She has also been lost and helpless, she has also cried in the middle of the night, and in the dead of night she feels that life is hopeless. And yet she came strong, and she did. Whether it was the torture of illness or the setbacks of life, she took them one by one, and bloomed the flower of life with a tenacious attitude.
Yue Hong said: "I have walked this road too long, and it has been 24 years. Life has taught me so many things, and I am thankful for life. It's fun to be alive, I'm healthy, I'm happy, I love you. "Suffering from cancer at the age of 40 and still alive at the age of 60, Yue Hong walked this long road of fighting cancer alone, insisting on fighting cancer for 20 years without recurrence. Years of anti-cancer experience have allowed her to sum up a set of her own anti-cancer cheats.
At the time, almost no one believed that she would survive. However, Yue Hong used iron-clad facts to tell everyone that she had successfully done it. This has made many cancer patients very curious about her anti-cancer experience. Later, a reporter came to interview her, in order to help more cancer patients find hope for survival, Yue Hong selflessly shared her 3 habits of success in fighting cancer, and it was these 3 habits that allowed her to create a miracle of life!
The first habit is early detection and early treatment
Regular check-ups are an important way to detect cancer early, which is the key to anti-cancer treatment. Early detection means that the cancer cells have not spread to other parts of the body. Whether it is in terms of surgical methods or prognosis, you can have more choices. Early-stage cancers can also be removed completely more easily and surgically.
Regular check-ups and self-observation are both ways to detect cancer at an early stage. Common physical examination items include blood tests, tumor marker tests, imaging tests, etc. Different people at different ages should have regular check-ups, especially those with a family history of cancer, or high-risk factors for cancer, such as smoking. Standard treatment is based on the type and stage of the tumor and the patient's physical condition, and the appropriate treatment method is selected. For example, surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and other means. Standardized treatment helps to take symptomatic measures according to the disease, increase the probability of success in fighting cancer, and promote the recovery of the body as soon as possible.
The second habit is to maintain mental health
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, physical illness is often inseparable from psychological "illness". In terms of pathogenesis, there is also emotional pathogenesis, joy, anger, sorrow, anxiety and panic will not cause damage to the body within the normal range, but excessive will cause disease. The cause of cancer itself is inseparable from mental health. It can be seen that curing cancer also requires a psychological perspective.
In modern society, people are looking for efficiency and speed, and they are in a hurry to do everything. There are also people who are impatient and pursue things faster. Talk fast, eat fast, and do everything in a hurry, but slowing down is the way to live forever. Learning to keep your mind calm, not to be agitated, and to have a calm mind can promote the recovery of your body. You can develop some hobbies in your life, such as practicing calligraphy, drinking tea, walking, etc., and quietly feel the time that slows down. According to scientific research, maintaining an optimistic mood helps to strengthen the body's immunity.
The third habit is to adjust your diet
Diet is an important source of nutrients and energy. Cancer patients are often afraid to eat due to their illness, resulting in malnutrition and emaciation. However, the body consumes a lot of cancer cells due to predation, so maintaining a good nutritional status helps the body to recover health. In life, you can eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, nuts, whole grains, fish and legumes and other foods, follow the principle of low fat and low salt, pay attention to balanced nutrition, eat more light and easily digestible food, and eat regularly.
All in all, in addition to regular work and rest, quitting smoking and drinking, and developing good living habits, these three points are also worth learning.
