As we speak there are some unwanted situations in life which nobody plans for and one of those situation is when some body very close to u is called for detection test and that too for a dreadful disease called cancer .. This is the moment where entire family goes into the phase of " how to deal with this situation" .. Yes every time whenever u heard of this word u feel it should not happen to u or ur loved once in life.. but we have learnt from our example that one should always be prepared for worst.. On the basis of our own experience I have made some points which can act as an interesting read for any one who God forbid but first of all listen to this word I.E. CANCER..
1) Most important part is u need to ask this question to yourself.. R u Alone ? or u have family with u during this time ....Family is the greatest support..it is more of emotional journey and u need to be well supported by Ur loved once. During my interaction with people I have met few who are alone in this fight.. I have one piece of advice for them.. there are lot of self help groups which can help u in this time...
2) Selection of Doctor - Selection of Doctor is the most important aspect in this regard and where u are getting tested.. I am blessed that I was in the family of Doctors.. so it was a easy sail thorough for me.. but yeah this is the most difficult question to address.. based on your location , your place,financial capabilities.. u need to figure it out.. plan it well .. talk to people.. refer word of mouth.. experiential sharing .. is the key .. experience of others help you the most..
3) Too much of anxiety kills-- U will certainly have too much of anxious moments during this phase.. but i think this is the time where u need maximum strength .. u need to be very calm and composed.. if u panic .. it is difficult for u to to deal with the patient.. Be very much positive.. Positive is the answer for every situation .. if u r not positive at this step.. then it is difficult for u to handle the situation.. it is very easy to say to remain positive , but answer lies in saying that keep your each and every moment work towards that.. which will surely help u to achieve desired goals.
4) Faith in Almighty- People say that one has to be practical but faith in almighty always works.. have faith in almighty.. God has a plan for every individual .. God is great.. what God does is for some thing good .. these are all emotional but equally true sayings..Faith always works.. have faith.. have patience .. things will surely improve..
5) Waiting for BIOPSY result-- This is the time where patience is checked the most.. have patience , keep patience and there need to be one guy in the family who is very strong.. there strength is what is the magnet for the entire family.. magnetic strength.. which attracts.. one person has to be very strong.. normally patient are not .. in our case.. my father is very strong . he has great mental strength which help us to sail through the situation ... strong foundation is what matters the most... keep ur head high ,have great mental strength..
6) Listen to Music, Be Active .. Have Hobbies -- Music is always a great stress buster ... having stress buster is important .. u can have any stress buster.. sports and following sports is a great stress buster.. point is u need to deviate your mind as mind keep hovering and keep thinking about the same point again and again.. One need to deviate mind and have your attention on other things .. Keep yourself active.. exercise .. watching television.. going out and spending time with loved once is always important..
