You need to be able to speak your mind freely and share your thoughts and fears. A good network of friends is also essential. My friend was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, we all rallied round and did what we could. Thankfully she's beaten it. Another friend who had ovarian cancer wasn't as lucky. RIP Andrea.

Shouldn't you instead be advocating making sure during the insurance selection stage that you pick insurance that will pay for really good specialists? “Forget insurance (if you can afford the thought)”

When I was diagnosed with a life-changing illness I had a terrible doctor, but stayed with him for around 2 years before getting the courage to seek another opinion. Best thing I ever did! The new doc was a total change, put me on different meds and turned my life around. Great article!

Besides what you have mentioned, I'd like to add two points. Firstly, doing suitable exercises once or twice a week will be good to health and can release the pressure from life and make you happier. The second point trying to help people around you as much as possible. You will get returned in the long run and you will find that you can unexpectedly keep a good, positive attitude towards your life problems.

I think that finding a doctor you trust is crucial when you have a health issue. My mom recently found out she had thyroid cancer, and she seeing a doctor now that she trusts completely; this is a great comfort to her, because she knows that he will be her doctor for life and knows her health history.

It's not the machines that are scary it's the cost of providing them. Our emphasis needs to shift to preventive health and light tech. Currently some of the poorer nations have a better health status than Australia (my country) or the US. Now that's scary! Hi Mr Smith,

When it comes to serious diseases we should not stay away with yourselves but try to refer to as better specialists, as we are able to find.

The most important thing for her was to have people who had the time to be with her and would not withdraw. People who could handle their own emotions and be with her too.
