Psycho-oncologist Małgorzata Ciszewska-Korona explains that a cancer diagnosis overturns a patient's previous world, and taboos and silence from those around them often worsen their situation. She advises how to talk assertively with doctors and how loved ones can wisely support the sick. She emphasizes that confronting one's own fragility can paradoxically unleash a stronger appetite for life.
