Getting sick or developing a disease isn't something any of us like to think about but it does happen. And what happens when it does? There is this moment of panic as a quick series of questions race through your mind repeatly, "what are the chances it is serious?, what will happen to my family? what will happen to me?". Then there is the search for all the answers to these questions which only leads you to more. "what are the treatments, what is the mortality rate, what is the prognosis?". You scour the internet and health books. You make countless visits to doctors or your healthcare professionals for answers.
So begins a new stage in your life. When you were younger health issues did not concern you daily. Health and wellness did not invade your everyday life. Only more pressing matters like making more money, getting an education or finding true love occupied your thoughts. After having a serious health event changes the way you think. It changes the way you approach life.
You will vow to do everything in your power to overcome this or prevent it. You'll not only follow the doctor's advice but you'll do better. Permitting, you'll exercise more, eat better and take better care of yourself.
You'll only regret that you waited to take better care of yourself
