She's Fine

This afternoon I, along with 8 colleagues, went to see Losan.  She looked fine.  Even just two days after the surgery, she still looked calm and elegant, as if nothing had happened.  She said the doctor had already told her that there was 50~70% chance of recurrence of the cancer when she finished chemotherapy last year.   How to avoid the recurrence is still a mystery.

A colleague said that nowadays, one out of four people is afflicted by cancer.  This disease seems to be as common as diabetes.  It may be due to all kinds of pollution, imbalanced diet, and unhealthy lifestyle.  Yesterday my mom-in-law told me that three out of five members in her neighbor's family suffered from cancer.  They never cook but always eat out.  Is this a factor? No one knows.
