Beating the Odds
Whether you’ve struggled with your own health, or gone through health issues with a loved one, you understand what it’s like to try to beat the odds. The movie 50/50 captures the journey of 27-year-old Adam, who was diagnosed with cancer and later discovers he has a 50/50 chance of survival. With a less than optimistic outlook, friendship, family and humor are the only things that get him through this difficult time, but not before he goes through the natural process of dealing with the devastating news.
1. Shock
2. Denial
3. Resistance
4. Acceptance
Navigating the road to recovery can be daunting, and the journey is never quite over. The movie 50/50 taught us a few lessons about getting through life’s challenges, and like Adam it helped us to realize that sometimes our greatest obstacles, are also our greatest opportunities for growth.
