The chemotherapy has been over for more than a month, and I rarely reminisce about that period, not deliberately avoiding it, but not deliberately remembering. I think of it occasionally, but it still doesn't feel real.
27-year-old like the male protagonist, try to avoid unhealthy lifestyles, don't smoke, drink less, and occasionally make skewers. Malignant tumor was detected at the age of 26 and underwent chemotherapy. Like the male protagonist, the brain paused briefly when the doctor was informed of the cancer, and then calmly accepted. Just like the male protagonist, before the hair fell out on its own, they were preemptively shaved. Like the male protagonist, he talked and laughed with his patients during chemotherapy, then took the bus home, rested for two days and continued to work.
My favorite scene in the film is the male protagonist sitting quietly, the road is still busy, other people are still living their lives, the world is still happening big and small, but he has cancer. During that time, I was like this occasionally. I didn't deliberately think of life or death, and didn't turn cancer into the whole life. I will meet numb medical staff, but I will be considerate to them rationally, I will meet "people around" who make appropriate expressions, I will thank them for their efforts to say a lot of polite things, and I will meet friends who make me laugh , That's the best.
The intern psychologist in the movie represents most of the people around her. In fact, she is not much different from the colleagues at the party. The concern of colleagues is out of courtesy and compassion, and the concern of the psychologist is out of work and sympathy, and is equally cold. An understatement is useless. Those who care about myself are only one or two friends who are silently sad behind their backs, but they are still heartless in front of them. They keep me from falling into the emotion of "Yes, I am a cancer patient". It feels like chemotherapy is not a big deal.
When the male protagonist loses control, he has to deal with his condition, perhaps it will not get better but will only get worse. I can write this film review calmly now because my heart is full of hope. Cancer is not terrible. The terrible thing is the advanced stage of cancer, but as long as there is hope, cancer is not particularly bad.
Most of the time in the film, I can feel the same way, so as a film about "Anti-Cancer Me", it can be regarded as a true reflection of us who fight against cancer.
