Cancer is one of the most dreaded diseases of our time. For many years, cancer has been the leading cause of death in East Asian countries such as Taiwan, Japan, Korea, and China. Many cancer patients have gone through a great deal of suffering during treatment, but still succumb to the disease in the end. However, some cancer patients deemed incurable by hospitals have defied the odds and made miraculous recoveries. What are the secrets of these cancer survivors?
Li Ou (a pen name) is a cancer survivor in Taiwan who was diagnosed with stage IVB nasopharyngeal carcinoma (terminal stage) four years ago, with a two-year survival rate of just 10 percent. Despite the odds, he is still alive today and has even better physical health than he did before his cancer diagnosis. So how did Li beat cancer? He attributed his success to his “optimistic and positive attitude” and daily exercise, with hospital treatments serving as a complementary aspect of his approach.
