Why is it that children diagnosed with cancer, survive longer than adults diagnosed with cancer?
Is it because children are NEVER told how long they have to live?
Do you think telling a person ‘how long they have to live’ destroys their "will" to live?
Children are systematically weaker than adults.
Mentally and physically, however their "will" to live is instinctual.
it depends on the age of the child. usually, because they are still developing, their bodies are more able to compensate for under-functioning organs. you can never underestimate the power of a positive attitude though; it is true that if you hear you only have a few months to live, you give up and end up dying sooner.
