Says "don't be afraid of cancer" and a positive attitude helps.

 



I think I have mentioned everything and the only thing I would say is if you hear about cancer or lung cancer should never get worried. You have to be strong, if you are strong, if you help yourself God helps you and you can be cured. I am the perfect example you can see. Even at the age of 70 I still run about. Being a sportsman; and food which is very, very important, you can maintain your health, nothing to worry about cancer.

Now regarding the message to other people, and especially the Asian elderly people, please be positive, cancer is nothing but a simple disease like fever or anything else. If you treat it that way, have the courage, you'll help yourself and that is what I will tell anybody or everybody that please, please don't be afraid of cancer, or lung cancer. Even after removal of the lung you will feel fit, happy and courageous.
