Cancer diagnosis as a young person? That suddenly changes everything: Instead of thinking about what #life should look like, what you want to study, who you want to date, you have to worry about things like: Which treatment is best? Will my hair fall out? Who will look after me during this time? And: What are my chances of survival? #Cancer is a widespread disease, almost everyone knows people who have it (Q1). In addition, more and more young people are getting cancer. Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Nevertheless, the topic is not very present for many young people. In this episode, Maria meets Lara (20) and Katharina (25): They were both #diagnosed with cancer at a young age. Lara is still in the middle of her therapy - Maria accompanies her to radiation. Katharina has been cancer-free for almost two years, but even after the illness it was not always easy for her to find her way back to life. Maria wants to know from the two of them: What is it like when you are terminally ill? How do you deal with a diagnosis like that? How does it feel when your hair falls out? How do they view their future? And: Are they afraid of death? ???? Do you know our community tab? It's really nice, take a look, we can exchange ideas and episodes there!
