I was required to read one of Bernie Siegel’s books in college and was hooked on his positivity from that moment on. The stories of his unconventional      and the exceptional patients he wrote about were so       to me and had such a big       on how I saw life from then on. Who knew that so many years later I would look to Dr. Bernie and his CDs again to      my own cancer experience?

I’m an ambitious       , and when I started going through chemo (化疗) , even though I’m a very      person, I lost my drive to write. I was just too tired and not in the      . One day, while waiting to go in for        , I had one of Dr. Bernie’s books in my hand. Another patient      what I was reading and struck up a conversation with me      he had one of his books with him as well. It       that among other things, he was an eighty-year-old writer. He was     a published author, and he was currently      on a new book.

We would see each other at various times and      friends. Sometimes he wore a duck hat, and I would tell myself, he was definitely a(n)     of Dr. Bernie. He really put a     on my face. He unfortunately      last year due to his cancer,       he left a deep impression on me and gave me the      to pick up my pen again. I       to myself, “If he can do it, then so can I.”
