Anthu ambiri amakhala ndi zolinga zabwino Pinki Okutobala akamazungulira. Afunadi kuchita kena kake kuchiza khansa ya m'mawere - matenda omwe akuti akupha 40,000 ku United States ku 2017, komanso padziko lonse lapansi. Komabe, zomwe anthu ambiri sakudziwa ndikuti kugula maliboni a pinki kapena kutumiziranso masewera a Facebook sikuthandiza aliyense.

Chowonadi ndichakuti, chifukwa cha zoyesayesa zomwe zachitika pazaka 40 zapitazi, pafupifupi Amereka onse azaka zopitilira 6 amadziwa kale za khansa ya m'mawere. Ndipo mwatsoka, kuzindikira koyambirira ndi kuzindikira sichithandizo-zonse zomwe timaganiza kuti zabwerera pomwe riboni ya pinki idapangidwa.

Amayi ambiri amapezeka kuti ali ndi khansa yoyamba ya m'mawere, amathandizidwa, kenako amapitilizabe kufooka, ndipo ndizomwe zimapha anthu. Ichi ndichifukwa chake - tsopano popeza tonsefe tikudziwa, tiyenera kuyamba kuyesetsa kuyesetsa kuthandiza anthu omwe adachita khansa ya m'mawere. Osangogula masiketi apinki ndikukumbutsa azimayi kuti akafufuze.

Komabe, izi sizikutanthauza kuti palibe zinthu zomwe mungachite mukamazindikira khansa ya m'mawere. M'malo mwake, pali njira zambiri zomwe mungathandizire anthu omwe ali ndi khansa ya m'mawere (komanso kuthandizira omwe akuchiritsa). Nawa malingaliro ochepa chabe:

1. Thandizani, osati kuzindikira

Mukasankha zachifundo, onetsetsani kuti cholinga chake chili pakuthandizira odwala, osati kuzindikira. Thandizo la wodwala limabwera m'njira zosiyanasiyana: makalasi opaka zodzoladzola, makhadi a gasi, mawigi, makalasi olimbitsa thupi, makalata, komanso kulipira kwathunthu chithandizo. Zinthu zonsezi zitha kuthandizira nthawi yoyesa, mwakuthupi komanso mwakuthupi.

Mabungwe othandizira monga Chemo Angels ndi American Cancer Society amayang'ana kwambiri thandizo la odwala.

2. Perekani njira zofufuzira

Kufufuza ndikofunikira kwambiri. Padziko lonse lapansi, khansa ya m'mawere imalandira ndalama zochepa kuposa khansa ya m'mawere, ngakhale ndi mtundu wokhawo wa khansa ya m'mawere yomwe muthane nayo. Ndalama zambiri zachifundo zimapita kukufufuza koyambira komwe sikugwiritsa ntchito kwenikweni zamankhwala. Chifukwa chake mukafuna mabungwe othandizira kuti muperekepo, ndikofunikira kupeza omwe akuyesera kupeza chithandizo chenicheni kwa odwala osati kungopatsa pakamwa lingaliro la "kuzindikira."

StandUp2Cancer ndi The Breast Cancer Research Foundation ndi mabungwe othandiza awiri omwe akuchita izi.

3. Thandizani munthu amene mumamudziwa yemwe ali ndi khansa

Ndidziwitse ngati ndingakuchitire chilichonse. ” Ambiri aife omwe tili ndi khansa timamva mawu amenewa nthawi zambiri… kenako osamuwonanso. Tikamalandira chithandizo kwa nthawi yayitali, timafunikira thandizo kwambiri. Timafunikira agalu athu kuyenda, tikufuna ana athu aziyendetsedwa kwinakwake, tikufunika kutsuka mabafa athu.

Ndiye ngati mumadziwa winawake yemwe ali ndi khansa, musafunse momwe mungathandizire. Auzeni momwe mukufuna. Osayika cholemetsa chopempha thandizo kwa wodwala khansa.

4. Perekani zovala ku chemo center

Kodi mumadziwa kuti mutha kusintha moyo wa wodwala khansa osalankhula nawo? Mutawuni iliyonse, muli akatswiri azachipatala omwe angalandire zopereka za zofunda, zipewa, kapena mipango. Chifukwa chazinsinsi, mwina simungathe kuyankhula nawo, koma mutha kuyankhula ndi omwe amakhala kutsogolo ndikufunsa ngati akufuna kulandira zinthu.

5. Kuyendetsa anthu ku magawo chemo

Pali odwala ambiri omwe akupeza chemo omwe alibe wina wowayendetsa. Mutha kusiya mapepala kuti azitero, kapena kuyika zikwangwani zam'madera zomwe mukufuna kuthandiza. Muthanso kuitanitsa wogwira ntchito zantchito kuti mudziwe komwe kukufunika thandizo.

6. Adziwitseni kuti amakumbukiridwa

Ngakhale kulemba makadi ndikuwasiya m'malo opangira chemo kapena zipatala za odwala khansa patchuthi kumatha kukhala kopindulitsa kwa wina yemwe akudutsa nthawi yowopsa kwambiri pamoyo wawo.

7. Lembani congressman wanu

Kwazaka khumi zapitazi, NIH idadula ndalama zofufuzira za khansa, ndipo izi zitha kupitilirabe chifukwa chakuchepetsa bajeti ya NIH. Kusintha kwamalamulo azaumoyo kwadzetsa chisokonezo, ndipo zikukhala zovuta kwa anthu omwe ali ndi khansa kupeza mankhwala, kaya ndi chemo kapena mankhwala othandizira. Mankhwala oletsa ululu tsopano sanabwerere (ngakhale kwa odwala osachiritsika) chifukwa madokotala akuwopa "kupitirira malire". Mankhwala ena olimbana ndi nseru ndiokwera mtengo kwambiri ndipo makampani a inshuwaransi sawalola. Kwa anthu ambiri, izi zitha kutanthauza kuwawa kumapeto kwa moyo wawo. Tiyenera kuti tisinthe.

8. Mverani odwala khansa

Kumbukirani kuti mukamalankhula ndi wodwala khansa, samva ngati ankhondo kapena opulumuka; samafuna nthawi zonse (kapena amafunikira) kukhala ndi malingaliro abwino. Ndipo palibe chomwe adachita, kuyambira kudya shuga mpaka kudya zakudya zosinthidwa, zomwe zidayambitsa khansa.

Wina akakukhulupirirani mokwanira kuti akuuzeni kuti ali ndi khansa, musayankhe mwa kuwauza kuti ndi ankhondo, kapena kunamizira kuti adalakwitsa zinazake. Ingowawuzani kuti Pepani izi zidawachitikira, ndipo mwabwera kudzamvetsera. Ndikofunika kuti muzilankhula nawo ngati abwenzi, anzanu ogwira nawo ntchito, kapena okondedwa omwe akhala. Khansa imatha kudzipatula, koma mutha kukhala munthu wolimbikitsayo yemwe amawakumbutsa kuti nthawi zambiri samayesezera kukhala olimba mtima.

Pinki ya Okutobala yasandulika pafupifupi tchuthi chadziko lonse, kukwezedwa kwa pinki kulikonse. Komabe, ndalama zoperekedwa ndi makampani nthawi zambiri sizimapita komwe zimafunikira kwambiri: kwa odwala khansa ya metastatic. Odwala khansa osachiritsika ndi amayi anu, azilongo anu, ndi agogo anu, ndipo tikufuna thandizo lanu.

Ann Silberman akukhala ndi khansa ya m'mawere ya siteji 4 ndipo ndiye mlembi wa Khansa ya m'mawere? Koma Dokotala… Ndimadana ndi Pinki!, yemwe adatchedwa mmodzi wa athu ma blogs abwino kwambiri a khansa ya m'mawere. Lumikizanani naye pa Facebook kapena Tweet iye @ButDocIHatePink.
