The diagnosis of cancer sounds like a death sentence. At first the person experiences shock: “It can’t be that this happened to me, it’s impossible.” Then indignation: “For what?!” Then the offense: “Why me?!” The doctor's verdict seems unfair. This is the same as receiving an undeserved punishment for an uncommitted crime. According to the World Health Organization, more than 7.5 million people die from cancer in the world every year, which is equivalent to 20 thousand deaths every day. It's a lot. But the number of people who have overcome the disease is also growing! There are more and more survivors after the battle with a merciless enemy! Today, according to statistics, almost 20% of those sick are cured! And this figure is growing. After all, medicine is becoming more and more perfect. Among the lucky ones are Russian and foreign celebrities. Many of them do not hide the fact that they were once given a terrible diagnosis, because they emerged from the struggle as real winners. These are people such as Daria Dontsova, Alisa Kleybanova, Alexander Buinov, Emmanuil Vitorgan, Lyudmila Ulitskaya, Robert de Niro, Michael Douglas, Laura Bush, Kylie Minogue, Bill Clinton and many others. Their example gives hope to those who are trying to cope with the disease now. The happy cases of cure given in this book show that a person can be stronger than cancer. And the one who is now in a hospital bed, or the one who admitted a loved one to the hospital, can confidently say to himself: “This is not the end of the world! We will defeat cancer!”
