For myself, the cause of my cancer was probably lifestyle: high stress, an irregular schedule, late nights (and all-nighters) at the office, lots of oily fast food, and--under the stress of publication deadlines--too much alcohol and coffee. Many of my new-found friends who are also victims of breast cancer led similar lifestyles, with virtually all of them sleeping too little and attending too many hard-drinking pseudo-social business dinners.
以我自己而言，歸納得病的淵源，可能與生活緊張、事情多而雜亂、長期熬夜、喜食油炸速食、趕稿時常喝啤酒、烈酒與咖啡等刺激品有關；而我接觸許多同患乳癌的病友，也多有類似的習性，其中熬夜和長期睡眠不足、酒量不錯等，幾乎如出一轍。
