NEVER SURRENDER

I haven't been around since the trip in Philippines because everything has been crazy. There has been some serious struggling in all sort of ways. I expected a couple of tough weeks and hard work due to some final examination in the two year education I've been doing (which have been a lot of fun). But when people around you are in medical emergency your focus change right away.

A very close and dear friend is fighting cancer since 7 years, ha has shown tremendous will power and fighting spirit. He have kept proving doctors wrong over and over again and always made more than he was supposed to do. Since I came back his condition got seriously to the point where the hospital said "there's nothing more we can offer" which means it's over (give up). It was a shock to all of us and at that point it is very easy to just surrender and start to count down.

A couple of days before this though, we heard about some alternative treatments at different hospitals which we planned to find out more about. So then all of this happened we started to work for this with all we got and that was a real challenge. Because what we found out is that this big and ineffective machinery is very stubborn to new ideas if they don't come from the people of their own department. And you can't take no for an answer, because then they are right.

So after really hard work and loads of phone calls his girlfriend managed at least to get him on this program. Now we pray it's not to late...
