英语智慧背囊09-一笑置之

[00:01.81]Laughing Matter 一笑置之
[00:05.07]Cancer is no laughing matter,
[00:08.57]but a woman suffering through chemotherapy is rethinking that.
[00:11.75]Bonnie Southcott, of Ferndale, Washington,
[00:14.81]is teaching people that even though cancer isn’t fun,
[00:17.55]it can be funny.
[00:19.28]She was seven months pregnant with her second child Nate
[00:22.25]when doctors found the tumor.
[00:23.90]“In a flash moment,
[00:25.09]I went from being a happy expectant mother
[00:27.61]to being someone afraid for her life,” she told reporters.
[00:30.77]Minutes after doctors delivered Nate by emergency C-section,
[00:34.93]Southcott went into surgery.
[00:37.24]The diagnosis was ovarian cancer.
[00:39.74]Suddenly tears and chemotherapy overtook her life.
[00:43.36]But the lowest moment came after she lost all her hair and a free wig arrived.
[00:48.29]he tried it on as her older son Kyler watched.
[00:52.44]“I thought I can cry about this bad wig and he’ll remember it,
[00:56.26]or I can laugh about it and he will remember that,” Southcott said.
[01:00.30]That was when she started laughing a lot, and found it was the perfect medicine.
[01:05.55]“I spent a lot time looking for anything humor based for cancer patients,” she said.
[01:10.58]“And I’ll tell you what: There isn’t much out there.”
[01:13.77]Using herself as a bald model,
[01:15.95]Bonnie started her own line of greeting cards and a calendar.
[01:19.13]Each pose pokes fun at the tribulations of chemo.
[01:22.62]She spread laugh in her own way.
[01:24.93]“We desperately need to laugh,” she said.
[01:27.54]“It’s vital to our joy.”
[01:28.97]Even though Southcott’s ovarian cancer is in remission,
[01:32.36]the diagnosis is no laughing matter
[01:34.77]—a 25-percent chance she will live for another two-years.
[01:38.48]She plans to appreciate every moment of motherhood.
[01:41.98]And she plans to laugh.
