游骑兵队三垒手教练从结肠直肠癌二期中幸存下来,现在正在鼓励其他人与癌症作斗争。

SPRINGFIELD, MO. – Jan. 25, 2018 -- “See every obstacle as an opportunity in life.”  That’s just some of the advice packed into a new campaign by Fight Colorectal Cancer featuring Texas Rangers third-base coach Tony Beasley. Diagnosed with stage II colorectal cancer in 2015, Beasley is speaking out to encourage people to get screened and tell fellow survivors to stay positive through the fight. Beasley’s story is told in the latest issue of Beyond Blue, Fight CRC’s magazine, as well as a PSA that will be play on broadcast and social media channels throughout 2018.

"比斯利说:"我想分享我的经历,希望能教育和激励那些对解决他们所经历的问题持保留态度的人,也希望能激励那些正在接受治疗的人。比斯利说:"我希望幸存者能够抱有希望,无论面对什么问题,他们都能取得胜利!让你想要的结果成为现实!"

比斯利的故事与其他100万名幸存者的故事一样--没有结直肠癌家族史,也没有任何遗传病史。 症状不明显.他一生都是运动员,身体非常健康,但他发现自己异常疲劳。痔疮的困扰让他去看了消化科医生,医生鼓励他做结肠镜检查。手术发现了直肠肿瘤,下一步是化疗和手术。但比斯利与他的医生通力合作,并保持乐观。

"比斯利说:"我将癌症视为机遇而非障碍。"我学会了不把任何事情视为理所当然"。

他的乐观使他渡过了治疗难关,走上了生存之路。现在,他的病情得到了缓解,他不仅激励着游骑兵队和其他棒球迷,也激励着寻找励志故事、鼓励和希望的结直肠癌幸存者群体。

"Fight CRC总裁Anjee Davis表示:"有机会见到托尼后,我很快就意识到他不仅在讲述自己的故事,他还是我们社区的榜样。"他是一个经历过最艰难日子的人的榜样,但他找到了庆祝简单的成功和生命时刻的方法。他是一个令人难以置信的激励者和鼓舞者,因为他经历过,并将继续成为一名斗士"。

To the community, Beasley offered these tips for staying positive through cancer:

1. Draw on your source of faith and belief.
2. Don’t allow negative thoughts to rule your mind.
3. Surround yourself with positive people!
4. Win small battles, win each day and try to maintain a sense of normalcy!
5. Fight with the outcome you want as the prize, don’t give in!
6. See every obstacle as an opportunity in life.
7. Ask questions. Be part of the process!
