Encarar a doença com um sorriso nos lábios


Ora aqui está um exemplo completamente diferente de como lidar com a temática do cancro que vale a pena consultar - http://www.planetcancer.org/.

Neste site é possível encontrar um pouco de tudo desde informação médico-científica, anedotas, produtos (hot survivers bikini calendar…), histórias de vida, dicas de engate (ex. A night with me is better than chemo/ It's not just my head that's bald, you know...), cartoons, etc. Uma comunicação que sabe a que público a que se destina, sem tabus e com coragem.

"Yeah, we didn't particularly want to be here, either. But while we're here, we figured we might as well make the best of it. Planet Cancer is a community of young adults with cancer. (You know, that age between "pediatric" and "geriatric," where no one knows whether to give you a lollipop or have a serious talk about your fiber intake.) It's a place to share insights, explore our fears, laugh, or even give the finger to cancer with others who just plain get it. We don't deny the dark side of illness and death here. But we also firmly believe that laughter and light can turn up in the strangest places. “

Notável.
