In 2007, Ling Zhijun was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer, and the doctor's advice was, "His tumor has spread to the brain, and he must be active, otherwise he will not live for three months".
He didn't take anti-cancer drugs, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy, and took his wife and son to live in seclusion in a quiet place in Shenzhen, completely forgetting about cancer.
Fortunately, five years later, Ling Zhijun's tumor disappeared.
What has Ling Zhijun done in the past 5 years?What kind of perseverance and perseverance supported Ling Zhijun's fight against cancer?
The moment he got the diagnosis, Ling Zhijun couldn't believe his eyes.
One day in 2007, Ling Zhijun suddenly fainted while creating, and after waking up, he vaguely felt that something was wrong with his body, and accompanied by his wife, he went to Beijing Temple of Heaven Hospital for treatment.
Along the way, his wife comforted Ling Zhijun, "It's going to be fine, your physical fitness has always been very good, it should be a minor illness", so Ling Zhijun let go of his worries, spent 300 yuan, and hung up the best expert number in the cancer department, and soon the doctor opened a list, and Ling Zhijun went to do an examination.
Unexpectedly, the results of the examination made Ling Zhijun collapse instantly, "Lung cancer, and it is advanced."
The doctor repeated to Ling Zhijun again in a very flat tone, "The cancer cells have spread to the whole body, even the brain, and your situation is not optimistic."
As a senior editor of a magazine, Ling Zhijun has a better understanding of language than ordinary people, and he can understand what the doctor's words mean, but he really can't accept the result, and then at the suggestion of his wife, he changes to another hospital for examination.
I went to major hospitals in Beijing, Shanghai and other places for examinations one after another, but the result was still the same, "advanced lung cancer".
Almost all the doctors did not comfort Ling Zhijun too much, and every time they bluntly told Ling Zhijun, "Hurry up, maybe you can survive three months, otherwise your life can only enter the countdown."
After returning home, Ling Zhijun accepted this reality.
In order to save the young life as much as possible, Ling Zhijun combined the chemotherapy plan given by the doctor, and at the same time collected information on the Internet, and began to formulate a relatively perfect ** plan by himself.
However, when he flipped through the information, he said, "Many patients with advanced cancer, 30% are scared to death by cancer, and 30% of patients are treated to death because of excessive **."
Moreover, the so-called chemotherapy and radiotherapy can be said to injure the enemy 1000 and self-damage 800, killing the cancer cells at the same time, but also killing the own immune cells."
Ling Zhijun was 44 years old that year, he had never had any disease before, and he had always been the breadwinner of the family, so Ling Zhijun made a decision in the long night, "give up chemotherapy and radiotherapy, do not take all cancer drugs, and leave his young life to fate."
Ling Zhijun's reason is very simple, "If you continue chemotherapy and radiotherapy, it is equivalent to lying in a hospital bed every day for the rest of your life, your hair will fall out, your face will become haggard, and the most important thing is that it may not save your life."
It's better not to take cancer seriously at all, eat and drink every day, write when you should write, and spend every day in a good mood, maybe there will be a glimmer of hope."
And even if the end result is not satisfactory, at least every day of life is fulfilling and meaningful."
Although Ling Zhijun is a strong person, cancer cells sometimes do not develop in the direction of a person's fantasy, and after not going to the hospital for two weeks, Ling Zhijun's condition has completely worsened.
Because of cancer in the lungs, it becomes difficult to breathe, especially when I sleep at night.
These are not the most terrible, the most difficult for Ling Zhijun to accept is that "because he already has a tumor in his brain, his spirit is not as good as day by day, and he can't do all other physical activities except for normal walking."
Looking at Ling Zhijun's increasingly thin face, his wife firmly took Ling Zhijun's hand and re-entered the door of the hospital.
This time, the doctor almost didn't discuss with Ling Zhijun, and directly concluded that "the tumor in the left lung must be removed, otherwise it will be difficult to save the gods when they come", Ling Zhijun did not hesitate, listened to the doctor's words, and removed the cancer of the left lung through surgery.
Just after the operation, the doctor told Ling Zhijun again, "Next, I will quickly plan a surgery for you to remove the brain tumor."
At this moment, Ling Zhijun got out of bed tremblingly and said something that stunned everyone, "I don't have a brain tumor, I want to be discharged from the hospital."
His wife burst into tears, but Ling Zhijun began to take his coat.
When his wife's hands trembled a little, Ling Zhijun told her in a weak tone, "If I really have this operation, then I will be completely finished, believe me, let's go home."
With the support of his wife, Ling Zhijun went through the discharge procedures and returned home.
But after returning home, his wife was always relieved of Ling Zhijun, and it happened that Ling Zhijun had a younger sister who was a doctor in Belgium, and after his wife obtained Ling Zhijun's consent, she called her sister**.
Unexpectedly, this pass ** made things turn around.
My sister first asked if the cancer cells had spread to the brain, and after receiving an affirmative answer, she asked, "Can you please tell me if the cancer cells in the brain are related to the lungs?"
Ling Zhijun truthfully said to his sister, "The doctor I visited said that it doesn't seem to have much to do with it."
At the same time, my sister also consulted several oncology experts, and finally came to the conclusion that "the brain tumor is indeed very little related to the lung tumor."
This news is simply a timely rain, which means that Ling Zhijun has gained more time.
My sister happily said to Ling Zhijun, "Brother, in this case, the tumor in the brain does not spread as fast as the lungs, as long as you actively accept **, you can prolong the length of your life."
But Ling Zhijun heard the meaning of his sister's words, and he knew that his sister wanted him to live longer.
Therefore, Ling Zhijun told his sister without thinking about it, "I have given up**, I decided to spend the past time at home, as for the tumor on my body, let it fend for itself."
Very lucky, my sister didn't force Ling Zhijun too much, and only said, "Maybe, if a person can have a good mood, even if it is a disease like cancer, it can heal itself."
It is precisely because Ling Zhijun has such an empathetic relative and wife that he has since started his own road to fight cancer.
Perhaps for Ling Zhijun, this is not about fighting cancer, but about ignoring cancer.
Ling Zhijun quit his job as an editor without even thinking about it, went to the suburbs of Shenzhen to find a house, and then moved in with his wife and son.
The reason why he chose a place so far away from Shenzhen, Ling Zhijun also has his own considerations, first of all, he can live there away from his relatives, and he doesn't have to listen to his relatives every day, "You go to the hospital" and the like.
The second reason is that Ling Zhijun believes that changing to a new environment can really make people feel different.
The third reason is very important, if you live in the suburbs, it is not only inconvenient to go to the hospital, but more importantly, it is more comfortable to have a sense of tranquility, which makes people feel more comfortable and can calm down and think about something.
Moreover, not long after Ling Zhijun settled in Shenzhen, he had already made a list of habits that satisfied him with taking care of his body.
The first is to eat and drink, when choosing food, Ling Zhijun chooses more whole grains, vegetarian food and vegetables.
Another important point is that Ling Zhijun believes that food must be abundant, so Ling Zhijun will ingest more than 20 kinds of ingredients every day, including various beans, various whole grains, various fruits, as well as various vegetables, milk, eggs, etc.
Ling Zhijun also drinks a lot of water every day, almost actively drinking water.
After planning the food and drink, the next step is how to exercise.
There is a big artificial lake in the community, the lakeside environment is quiet, and there are no people, Ling Zhijun only needs to get up in the morning, and immediately take breakfast to the lake for a walk, this is the case in the morning, and the same is true in the afternoon.
Ling Zhijun said that due to the brain tumor, his mobility has actually been greatly affected, and it has become difficult for him to walk, but he must also insist on walking every day, after all, people live to move."
Relying on such a good lifestyle, only a year later, Ling Zhijun found that his condition seemed to have eased.
His wife offered to take him to the hospital for another check-up, and Ling Zhijun readily agreed, but fortunately the results of the examination were very optimistic, "The tumor in the brain has changed from the initial 25 cm 23 cm, reduced to 22 cm 19 cm".
This means that little by little, the tumor is disappearing.
This news not only made Ling Zhijun relax his vigilance, but also strengthened his belief that he wanted to persevere.
Later, Ling Zhijun thought about a question, "If you really want the tumor to disappear completely, it should not be easy to do it by diet and lifestyle habits alone."
So Ling Zhijun believes that "you must keep yourself happy at all times before you can completely get rid of the disease."
Since Ling Zhijun has always been engaged in editorial work, he likes language programs very much, such as telling jokes and talking about cross talk, etc., he packed up the TV at home in those days and went to watch cross talk programs.
The son quickly observed his father's hobby after school, hurried up to finish his homework, and then quietly sat next to his father and listened to cross talk with his father.
The wife watched the father and son from the sidelines, showed a pleased smile, and quietly went to the kitchen to prepare some vegetarian dishes and Ling Zhijun's favorite dried fruits while they were unprepared, and the family sat together and chatted with laughter.
Unknowingly, three years have passed, and on an idle weekend, his wife once again accompanied Ling Zhijun to the hospital for an examination, but was surprised to find that "the tumor is almost half of what it was before."
Time has come to 2012, 5 years have passed since Ling Zhijun was diagnosed with lung cancer, and Ling Zhijun at this time has already changed his appearance.
His ** has become a very healthy bronzer, which is completely different from the previous relatively fair complexion, Ling Zhijun said that this is all due to his love of sunbathing, as long as the sun is out every day, he will move a stool to dry, Ling Zhijun said that this is a healthy lifestyle.
Another point is that Ling Zhijun's legs and feet have become lighter and lighter than the state of 5 years ago, and he is over 50 years old and now walks like a fly, and there will be no mud and water at all.
Ling Zhijun also picked up the pen again and began a lifelong hobby, "creation", often recording his feelings after tea and dinner.
When everything became so in line with the family's wishes, his wife took Ling Zhijun to the hospital for one last time, and this time, the results of the examination were encouraging, "All the tumors in Ling Zhijun's brain have disappeared, and even some of the tumors that have spread before have all disappeared."
On the road to fighting cancer, Ling Zhijun has won.
Immediately after returning home, Ling Zhijun decided to write a book, which was called "Notes on Rebirth".
In this book, he recorded the process of fighting cancer, and also recorded his mental journey from initial despair to full of confidence later.
In the same year, he published the book.
Later, Ling Zhijun's creation did not stop, and in 2018, he published "Chasing the Light".
At the same time, Ling Zhijun is also embracing life in a new way.
This is the end of the story, and there are two things worth noting.
The first point is that Ling Zhijun's method only applies to him, and others cannot imitate it, and if the cancer falls on another person, the result may be different.
In addition, Ling Zhijun did not refuse everything**, at the critical moment, Ling Zhijun did surgery to remove the tumor of the left lung in time.
All he gave up was chemotherapy and radiotherapy, cancer drugs, and surgery to remove brain tumors.
The second point is that people's mood is really important, and many patients with advanced cancer really rely on a good mood to heal themselves.
According to some opinions, "the tumor has already taken root in you, and at an advanced stage, it is unrealistic for you to want to remove it, so all you can do is to put yourself in a good mood so that the cancer cells have no place to stand".
Therefore, when you unfortunately suffer from cancer, don't scare yourself first, you should accept it according to your own situation, and then adjust your mentality as much as possible to spend your life in the future with your good mood.
If you are lucky enough to get cancer in this way, of course, it is the best, if you don't get your wish, you don't waste the last time of your life.
Of course, the role of family members during this period is also crucial, learning to accompany and create a comfortable and cheerful family atmosphere, just like Ling Zhijun's wife and son.
