Mother's Day｜A good mother with breast cancer reinfection relies on her family and the volunteers of the Breast Cancer Foundation to survive the difficulties
[08:00] The new crown virus has been raging for nearly two and a half years, and the third Mother's Day is about to usher in the epidemic. Although this year catches up with the government's relaxation of epidemic prevention measures, it is rare for a family of eight to celebrate.
However, for Huang Shiying, who unfortunately suffered from breast cancer during the anti-epidemic period, and was infected in the fifth wave of the epidemic, because the cancer treatment has not yet been completed, there will still be anxiety when meeting family members for dinner. Therefore, this year's Mother's Day can only be with daughters and grandchildren to celebrate with video.
Her wish is very simple. Like many people in Hong Kong, she only hopes that the epidemic will pass as soon as possible, and she can have a happy family with three generations of her family.
Shiying, 63, was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer at the end of November last year and needed to undergo mastectomy followed by chemotherapy. Unfortunately, she contracted the disease when the fifth wave of the outbreak broke out in February this year. The side effects of chemotherapy and the symptoms of the new crown made her very uncomfortable. The hesitation caused insomnia, but fortunately, the medical and volunteer support of the Hong Kong Breast Cancer Foundation helped her overcome the difficulties of fighting the disease.
