Durante muchos años el miedo al cáncer recorrió los pasillos de nuestra familia, una tía muy querida fue la primera en experimentar sus señales y las consecuencias de su presencia.
Corrían los años 70 y los avances nos eran los mejores, pero los médicos creían estar haciendo lo mejor por ella. Quimio, radio y quitar un seno, haciendo que se sintiera menos mujer. Todo fue muy doloroso y agotador. Durante diez años no volvimos a tener su visita de nuevo en la familia.
¿Que si quiero que se cure el cáncer? Claro que sí, no se porque con tantos avances no han sacado ya la formula mágica para desaparecerlo del mapa. Supongo que hay muchos intereses, muchas medicinas que recetar y muchos laboratorios por aparecer.
Y que lo puede estar causando su gran aumento en la población como la alimentación industrial, el sedentarismo, el tabaquismo. Pero sin duda tener la mente en positivo ayuda alejar las enfermedades o por lo menos a recuperarse pronto de ella. Muchas de las técnicas para tratarlas han sufrido grandes cambios, pero todavía no se escucha que pongan sobre la mesa una cura definitiva contra el temible cáncer.
En mi familia ha estado muy presente principalmente en los que fumaban mucho y los que vivimos alrededor de ellos hemos estado expuestos mucho tiempo.

**ENGLISH VERSION** For many years, the fear of cancer roamed the halls of our family. A beloved aunt was the first to experience its signs and the consequences of its presence. It was the 1970s, and the advances weren't the best, but the doctors believed they were doing the best for her. Chemotherapy, radiation, and breast removal made her feel less of a woman. It was all very painful and exhausting. For ten years, we didn't have her visit the family again. Do I want cancer cured? Of course I do. I don't know why, with so many advances, they haven't come up with the magic formula to erase it. I suppose there are many interests, many medications to prescribe, and many laboratories waiting to emerge. And the significant increase in the population, such as industrialized food, sedentary lifestyles, and smoking, could be causing it. But without a doubt, having a positive mindset helps ward off disease or at least help you recover quickly from it. Many of the techniques for treating it have undergone major changes, but we still haven't heard of a definitive cure for this dreaded cancer. In my family, it has been very prevalent, especially among those who smoked heavily, and those of us who live around them have been exposed to it for a long time.***
