martin fund if i didn't has a different perspective he has fortune not free to straining to thank for he survived. i was the most lazy patients that you can imagine and it's things thing is that. my fellow patients they did that fitness course they where the fit once. was the treatment did not help for them. and i was the lasik patients and i was the one that had the luck to recover. but. i do not believe that the chance of. recovering increases by doing more sports during your treatments. and i think we have to be very careful with not blaming patients that they do not support enough if society

more of this great. stuff. so while research has provided valuable insights things could improve on the practical side. right now sports and exercise therapy and not part of regular health insurance coverage in germany there are various reasons but the insurance company should make a move and say that they'll pay for it but we wouldn't get all patients included to help to start the ball rolling and hopefully qualify for prescription. and. and that is where outdoor against cancer hopes to have. it organizes events like the night hike held symbol tamia silly in 6 locations.
6:25 am
after the welcome to our 1st night hike. this hike by a lake outside music is about both exercise and education in schools are funded by the european union in order to increase the wind of sport and cats night hike is about going out in the evening living outdoors and enjoying the beauty of the nature and doing something for your health so they are in a social community they feel comfortable they don't have to be alone at home they do something for their health and against cancer they do something for their fuses and that psych then do something for a positive life so this is our message this is our mission this is my vision and i work out for the. martin fund and vitamin has his vision when it comes to helping cancer patients.
