During a regular health check-up, Hari Won was lucky to detect cervical cancer early and receive timely treatment, so she was healthy. She said that she had gone through days that seemed unpredictable when she received the doctor's notice, she "feeled the whole sky collapsing" and could not believe that this disease had come to her so soon.
Hari discovered she had cervical cancer at the end of 2012. At that time, Hari felt tired and lethargic, so she went to the doctor and discovered she had an illness. Fortunately, the doctor concluded that Hari was in the early stages, had undergone 2 surgeries and Hari's health has now recovered.
Thinking back, Hari found herself a healthy lifestyle and always focused on eating, so when the doctor concluded that she had cancer, she did not believe it. But the truth, Hari has come to realize that illness does not leave anyone behind.
