She is correct, the will to live is amazingly strong, far stronger than most of us realize. None of us is promised tomorrow, but we can tweak our diets by eating as Dr. T. Colin Campbell suggests in his book 'The China Study'. We can overcome co-morbities, lose weight. and defeat cancer by eating only foods that are known to prevent its survival, we can decrease our toxic load, exercise, sleep well, meditate, bask in the love of our families and the beauty of nature. Rather than sit and cry when we receive a cancer diagnosis, we can make a plan to not only survive, but thrive, we can be there for our grandchildren when they graduate and marry. Persistance and determination are stronger than we can imagine. That is how I choose to live my life, so that at the end of the day, I can leave Planet Earth, a little better than I found it!

I found it now. But my feeling is similar. It is all true. But it also show how at some level, cancer in a lot of cases... is a losing battle. At the end, she was in the gym 4-5 times a week, eating healthy food, no process food, a lof of green and vegetables. No red meat. And more. With a positive attitude and mind set. And she lost that battle at the end. At some level, no matter what we do, no matter how hard we try... Look at Steve Jobs, with all his billions, and doctors, medical professionals sourounding him, and all those advices. He has lost that battle too. Different type of cancer of course, but at the end, it wasn't about money or how healthy you are trying to be. In some cases, it is just too late. Your time is up. Sad, but true. And yeah, I had cancers in my family too, and also close stories regarding people who didn't make it (but also couple who did!). All in all, whoever that lady was - at the end, she gave it her best, with all possitive atitude and also a good approach even to something like food, diet, exercise and mental approach. She didn't gave up. And at the end, this is all we can do. Much respect for that lady. "The only way to succeed in life is to live it to the fulest". Such a simple words, and such difficult to achive for most. Even for me.

July 10, 1951 was the last day my Dad walked. That day, he caught 10,000 volts of electricity that, fortunately, knocked him off the ladder causing him to fall 18’ and land on his back on a concrete curb. He was burned on his legs, abdomen, and arms. They told my Mom he wouldn’t make it to the hospital. Then he would not make it through the night....the end of the week....the end of the month. I was born 3 years to the day after his injury. I never my Dad walk. He was paralyzed from the waist down. I grew up with my Dad as Mr. Mom before that was cool. He cooked, cleaned, did laundry and raised me along with 5 grandchildren who moved in with us. My Dad died 43 years later in 1994. My hero.

The fact that someone may be doing EVERYTHING right in life and STILL get severely sick is, to me, the most unfair aspect of life. It's truly saddening to know of her passing. Nevertheless, she gave a great talk that I'm sure continues to help many people watching it. Let's all live in the now.

The biggest misconception: We have time, but in truth, ALL WE HAVE IS TODAY, NOW, THIS MOMENT, THE FREAKING PRESENT.

Kjos has a beautiful message. I was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer that had spread to my liver at age 49. It was difficult to accept, especially since I have two beautiful, young daughters. But, with the help of my amazing wife, I decided to live my life seeking the joyful moments, which there are many. I have come to realize that I love life! And nothing will take that feeling away from me while I am alive.

I was diagnosed with a terminal illness in 2011. I had a very similar spiritual awakening. It was a true blessing in my life. The only thing holding me back from changing the things in my life I would like to, is money. I would love to live in a place I love. To travel to places I’ve only dreamed of. I’m still hopeful that maybe one day before my time comes, I will get to achieve those things. I am great full for every moment I have in this life and for whatever experiences I do get to have.

"My love for life is so much stronger than the fear of dying "

II had a brain tumor and had surgery, radiation therapy, and then about twelve months of chemotherapy. Already with the diagnosis I started to meditate and change my focus. After the diagnosis I came home and wrote on a piece of paper:" I am healthy." I have since meditated on the resulting new beliefs in my new world hundreds of times over the past two and a half years. I believe that I also owe it to this circumstance that I am healthy and tumor-free today and will remain so. Everything I did was exactly right and I agree 100% with this wonderful, strong woman. Life is only now and no one knows how long we will be given. Live fully and only in and for the now, so that it is good for you and others. Be and spread love and peace. Stop postponing anything, anything at all, into the future. You never know how long is still given to you. Try the meditations of Doctor Joe Dispenza, maybe they are helpful for you maybe not. You will only know if you try. In any case, they have helped me a lot.

It’s wonderful to see your loved ones again and bask in a bright light full of love. Death is not a full stop, it’s a comma. Our time on earth is written, the number of heartbeats, number of breaths, we only get as many as we are supposed to. Don’t worry too much about people you will leave behind, it’s a short goodbye, I promise you they will be fine. Spend your last days with them, travel if you can, feel the earth , indulge all your senses and make plans to make your exit as painless as possible.

A few months ago, i learned to live every day like its my last. Not so much in the fact of going out and doing extravagant things every single day, but l have learned to love fully, wholeheartedly, see the good in everyone and make at least one person smile every single day. I have learned to be kind to myself, and listen to the inner voice inside of myself instead of ignoring it and pushing it aside. She has a lot to say, and deserves to be heard. I live every day with gratitude, regardless of my circumstances. I'm still not where I want to be in life, as I want to live in a remote cabin, surrounded by nature.

There’s a reason this video kept popping up in my feed every single day for a week. Thank you and God bless you!!

Big kiss from Brazil! Keep going, keep going!

Almost two years ago, I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer ( stage 2b). I went to the emergency room because my whole body was itching like crazy. Right now, I am trying to be grateful for each day. It is not an easy thing.

Oh please- get over yourself. Are you still 20? You act like it. You don't have it so bad- just bad attitude. People in Ukraine literally are more grateful than you. Get a NEW JOB or start a business. Work Out and eat right- which you clearly do not. Travel. Volunteer. Do something- just stop complaining. Not trying to be harsh but listen to this video. She is RIGHT- you are WRONG and I am keeping things REAL. Life is precious and quite short. It is a gift you do not appreciate.

I’ve watched this 3 times in 2 months and it stops me in my tracks each time. I’ve just seen it again now and I just clapped my hands and cried. Beautifully powerful and brave. Since I first saw this 3 friends have been diagnosed with serious cancers…. Another person I know had a head on collision on a motorbike and is fighting for her life…. If I take this over 3 years then my list would be even longer. We have no idea even 5 minutes ahead.. or if we say goodbye at the start of the day… if a loved one will return. We only have now…. I need to have this talk close.. because when all the fluff and nonsense hits my day and I feel fed up then I need to get perspective and gratitude. You are changing so many lives.. but we need your voice in our ears whenever we forget how precious life is and how we should greet each day with gratitude. God bless you….

❤️ It is absolutely true, the beauty in life comes from healing our wounds and transform the past pain into wisdom, which we can apply in our own life, in our own decisions for a fulfilled life 🕊

So true! I never really appreciated my life until after my cancer diagnosis.

Her story can related on my condition right now, which makes me care about myself more, care about my health, my life, my dreams, my family, my happiness, and my freedom. I don’t want to continue to live under other people’ expectations or impressions anymore. Life too short to caring for other people’ thinking about you. It is better to focus on yourself and live the way want to be in life. Enjoy your time while you can, don’t wait until you get older.

She looks beautiful, her attitude towards life is beautiful. Her thriving speech will keep on motivating many of us over the time I'm sure. I wish her the best of best . Seeing people like her facing the menace of Cancer, I feel to educate myself, others in our ability & beyond to know more about cancer and how to fight it in our every day life, how to use our skills for cancer research

"I am alive" "I am living" Beautiful words to live by!

If this speech was held by a "healthy person", it wouldnt have touched me i think, this "life is now", "live your life now"- attitude I am reading everyday on instagram. But this is different. Because I rarely imagine myself getting diagnosed with what she was - and in this minutes, when she talked about it, i imagined how it would be, so her words hit differently. All the best for you, strong woman.

Rest in peace Elin ❤🕊🥀

Thank you for making us realize we are ALIVE .❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

From my experience, something that is life threatening puts you in "survival" mode because living is better than the alternative. It forces you to take one step at a time and put things in perspective.

Stage 4 here and livin life every day! Also healthy, no other medical issue ever and then stage 4 lung cancer , never smoked a day in my life, parents did but lived full life Dying at 65 and 77 years whereas I’m 54.. 🤔. Luckily no horrific treatment and able to follow natural treatment options, 0 toxic stuff! God bless and thank you for the great talk. I wil do one as well God willing , stats and “ expeced outcomes” be damned . Maybe a book is more my style .. and I don’t have the magnificent delts for the stage but love it !

I cried 😢 the time is now to live, I don't want to survive anymore, I want to live my life to the fullest, she already won the battle, what a beautiful and vibrant soul

I like how my cancer was announced by my urologist in a very same way. His assistant called me for an appointment. He took the biopsy analysis and said you have a bladder cancer (full stop). He continued to expose how it will treated and fixed - a pretty hard core process. I start to learn all what's going on around my cancer. I upgrade the protocol wherever is needed. Still at work with changed responsibilities compatible with my treatments and side effects...

. There’s a great little book on natural healing written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention, called My Physician, Myself. I read it a couple of years ago but lost my copy. I’m going to Amazon right now to order one and be more careful with it. It’s more than well worth the read. You might look into the work of Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman who lived to 102

wow, what a powerful message.... i am going through a challenging time, not due to a medical problem, but a familial and personal one... at times it feels like the end of the world, but seeing this video, it gives me courage to keep fighting, to keep living and finding purpose... thank you for spreading such wonderful words...

I was diagnosed with cancer while I was pregnant with my first and only child. When I went to hospital for biopsy never did I expect to hear from my doctor saying that " although we have to send the sample to lab to confirm the result but my diagnosis is that it is cancer". I had to go through surgery while being in my second trimester , four months pregnant. 6 years has passed since then , and I am still alive. Lots of thing has changed though, I had to quit my doctoral program at the 3rd year, but that was also part of my healing. My life has healed from being fearful, fearful of being myself or doing whatever I feel is right for me. Life goes on, the best thing we can do is to live every moment to the fullest as if there is no tomorrow.

Absolutely incredible. I am moved to tears. RIP dear one.

With that energy, I'm 100% sure you will make it Elin. Congrats, people like you makes this world with full of impossiblities worth living.

For me the insignificant health issues were headaches, balance issues and weak legs. The conversation with the doctor took place in February 2019. For me the diagnosis was incurable brain tumor and took place in the hospital bed as I just suffered from another epilepsy. I was almost incapable of telling my parents, brothers, wife and 3 kids about it as I was in shock. Now having undergone 2 major brain surgeries, radiotherapy and currently going through my second chimiothérapie I managed to replace fear and anger by gratitude. I am grateful as this experience allowed me to appreciate every aspect of my life, even if they seem negative at first. The relationships with my family and friends are more intense and intimate than they have ever been. My lessons from this: Don't compromise the present for the future. Don't confuse joy (short-term, partial and insignificant) with happiness (long-term, meaningful and holistic)

Psychologically, she is gone but her spirit is alive with those who she gave hope and courage to live and enjoy life even with cancer . My condolences to her family and loved one

Dear Elin, in my believes I consider you as a miracle. Thank you for sharing your extraordinary attitude to fight for your life! Take care.

Same as me. Sometimes the diseases gives us more than the normal life. And in one moment I was thinking...what is the normal life? It has to be what I have now. Congrats on your healing process. We are the most important thing in it xxxx

My heart goes out to you. You are strong, wise and keep up the good life. I can empathize with you as I spent 8 years of my life recovering from illness, Lyme, EBV and Coxsackie. Three years sliding downhill and 5 years recovering. With the help of a wonderful doctor well-versed in Homeopathy and Allopathy, changed my diet, reassessed priorities and finally really began to take care of myself. It works.

She passed on today. Thank you for the inspiration. Thank you for all you did.

A very inspiring woman who also reminds me of a very good old friend. He always had a stressful, consumer-friendly and also superficial life until he was diagnosed with lymph gland cancer. A few months later we were taking a long leisurely walk through the woods and he said to me, obviously I had to get cancer to be able to enjoy the stillness and the beauty of the trees. Two or three weeks later I was at his funeral. I like to hike through the forest and sometimes I imagine that he is accompanying me although I know full well that this is nonsense. I like the idea anyway.

Life is really a miracle to be grateful to have and to live for. I'm inspired greatly.

Elin. Thank you so very much for sharing, until now, I have not found such an inspirational presentation. Your story has reeduced me to tears, tears of inspiration “my love for life is so much stronger than my fear of dying”. I have survived three strokes since 2018; the most recent in January of this year has been the most devastating. Since January 5 of 2022, I have faced the overwhelming fear of another stroke, that could be worse. I am truly inspired to live life. I am truly grateful.
