Wang Kaiqiang has just turned 48 years old, which is a good stage for many people: a successful career, a stable family, and children growing up.
However, for Wang Kaiqiang, this year has brought a huge turning point in his life. During a chance physical examination, Wang Kaiqiang was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. After learning of his condition, Wang Kaiqiang's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations.
He did not choose to receive immediate treatment, nor did he wallow in despair. Instead, he decided to return to his hometown, a place full of childhood memories, and live the life he wanted.
Wang Kaiqiang began to drink and play cards with his friends every day, and talked all night, as if he wanted to squeeze every minute and every second of fun in this way. Wang Kaiqiang used to be an auto mechanic, a profession that gave him the opportunity to work with a wide variety of people and cars.
Although the work is often dirty and oil-stained, Wang Kaiqiang enjoys it because he always finds a sense of accomplishment in repairing broken cars.
The illness made it impossible for him to work as before, but his attitude and spirit did not degrade because of it. His home, a place of smoking, drinking and laughter, is visited by friends every day. Although Wang Kaiqiang's choice made his family worried, he gradually understood that this was his own way to face the challenges of life.
In this unreasonable way of life, Wang Kaiqiang experienced an unusual sense of freedom and relief. He used to say that life cannot choose to begin, but the way it ends can be beautifully drawn.
Although the outside world gradually blurs in his eyes, his inner world is unusually bright. He began to re-evaluate the things that really mattered in his life, such as the love of his family, the company of his friends. However, it is true that life is not a movie, and reality is always full of challenges.
Wang's health began to deteriorate, and his body was overwhelmed by drinking and staying up late. Late one night, he was sitting alone in the courtyard of his home, looking at the starry sky, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain.
He realized that no matter what lifestyle he chose, lung cancer was still quietly eating away at his life. At this critical juncture, an old friend and professional doctor, Dr. Zhang, came to visit. Dr. Cheung understands Wang's situation and respects his choice, but he tries to convey an important point to Wang.
Dr Zhang explained in detail the treatment possibilities for lung cancer, including the latest targeted drugs and immunotherapy, which are not completely curative, but can greatly prolong the survival time and quality of life of patients.
He hopes that Wang Kaiqiang will at least consider trying some milder treatment options. Dr. Zhang told him a story about another patient with advanced lung cancer who not only achieved a significant improvement in his quality of life through targeted therapy and lifestyle modifications, but also lived longer enough to witness his daughter's wedding.
Listening to Dr. Zhang's words, Wang Kaiqiang's deep fear and resistance gradually lessened. He began to think that maybe he could give himself a chance, not just for himself, but for his family and friends.
The transition wasn't easy, but Wang gradually realized that instead of consuming the remnants of his days with alcohol and exhaustion, he could try something that would give him hope.
After much deliberation, Wang Kaiqiang decided to start receiving some treatment. Although he continued to maintain a relaxed and cheerful lifestyle, he reduced his alcohol consumption and began to take his doctor's recommended medications on time.
At the same time, he also cherishes the time he spends with his family and friends, and every party and joke is regarded by him as a rare and precious time in his life. The effects of the treatment began to appear, and Wang Kaiqiang's physical condition improved significantly.
Although the lung cancer is still in his body, he feels more energetic and hopeful for the future than before. In the process, he learned an important philosophy of life: although life cannot be chosen, the attitude towards life can be chosen.
His story has inspired many, especially those who are also facing the challenges of a major illness. They found strength in Wang's attitude and learned to find hope and happiness in the face of adversity.
Wang Kaiqiang has not only become a hero in the eyes of his family, but also the soul of a community. People understand that even though the journey of life may be full of unknowns and challenges, everyone has the ability to walk this part of the road in the best possible way.
