Oh, I know, I know. I crashed with my motorcycle and had a concussion on my milt. Didn't think about it first but realized how bad it was, after doctors wouldn't let me go after four days in hospital.
There is lots of scary stuff out there, I'm aware of that. Maybe it's also about the "actio = reactio" thing in my head. Crash = you may die or be severly injured. Overweight might lead to strokes, ok. I can grasp all of those concepts and understand them.
But cancer can just come out of nowhere and it could kill you, although you did nothing wrong.
Yeah it was like that with my dad. He was super fit, didn’t drink, probably worked too much but that was about it as far as vices. But all the same the cancer came and just swallowed him up. We tried everything but it was just the disease was totally indifferent to our efforts.
Before that experience I never really got what the big deal with cancer was. But when it clicked that it’s basically your own cells evolving to destroy you: well it’s pretty dark if you think about it.
