(English) I Have Breast Cancer, but I Still Want That Bikini
A lively and cheerful daily life of a stage 4 cancer patient! Sharing hope through honest stories.
The author, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in her 30s, shares her hospital life, cancer treatment process, and recovery journey in a lively and non-burdensome way. After going through the pain, she longed for a normal daily life. Convenience store sandwiches, side dishes on a solo meal table - all the big and small experiences supported her everyday life. During her over five-year battle with cancer, the author realized that pursuing happiness in everyday life is more important than living in fear of death. Before getting worse, before becoming more painful, she encourages breast cancer patients to fulfill their dreams in their daily lives, just as if they were wearing bikinis on the beach.
