Geneva – A lot of people get shocked when diagnosed with cancer. Per the World Health Organisation (WHO), cancer is one of the most widespread conditions worldwide. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) estimates that in the United States alone, there were around 1,806,590 new cases in 2020. Dany Bell, a specialist advisor on treatment and recovery at Macmillan Cancer Support in the UK, told a media outlet: “Being diagnosed with cancer can be a big shock, even if you already suspected you might have it. Cancer is a word that can stir up many fears and emotions….but making sure you fully understand your diagnosis can help you feel more in control of the situation.”
