Ungahle wazi umlingisi waseCanada uCobie Smulders ngomlingiswa wakhe onamandla, uRobin, ku I-How I Met Your Mother (HIMYM) noma izindima zakhe ezinzima ku UJack Reacher, UCaptain America: Isosha Lasebusika, noma Abaphindiseli. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi, mhlawumbe ucabanga ngaye njengowesifazane onamandla njengesihogo ngenxa yabo bonke abalingisi besifazane ababi abadlalayo.

Nokho, kuvele ukuthi i-Smulders inamandla kakhulu empilweni yangempela, futhi. Usanda kubhala uLenny Letter evula ngomzabalazo wakhe nomdlavuza wesibeletho, atholakale enaso ngo-2008 eneminyaka engama-25 ngenkathi eqopha isizini yesithathu ye-HIMYM. Futhi akayedwa; abesifazane abangaphezu kuka-22,000 e-US batholakala benomdlavuza wesibeletho unyaka ngamunye, futhi bangaphezu kuka-14,000 abafa ngenxa yawo, ngokusho kweNational Ovarian Cancer Coalition.

U-Smulders uthe uzizwa ekhathele ngaso sonke isikhathi, ehlala enengcindezi esiswini, futhi wazi nje ukuthi kukhona okungahambi kahle-ngakho waya kudokotela wakhe wezifo zabesifazane. Imvelo yakhe yayilungile-ukuhlolwa kwakhe kwembula izicubu kuwo womabili ama-ovari akhe. (Qinisekisa ukuthi ujwayelene nalezi zimpawu ezinhlanu zomdlavuza we-ovari ezivame ukunganakwa.)

"Ngesikhathi nje lapho amaqanda akho kufanele agcwale ama-follicles asencane, amangqamuzana anomdlavuza afike kwesami, asongela ngokuqeda inzalo yami futhi nokuphila kwami," kubhala incwadi. "Ukuzala kwami ​​kwakungakafiki ngisho nasemqondweni wami ngalesi sikhathi. Futhi: Ngangineminyaka engu-25. Ukuphila kwakulula kakhulu. Kodwa ngokuzumayo kwaba yikho konke engangikucabanga."

USmulders uchaza ukuthi wayekade azi kanjani ukuthi ukuba ngumama kusekuseni lakhe, kepha ngokuzumayo lelo thuba alizange liqinisekiswe. Esikhundleni sokuhlala phansi avumele umdlavuza ukuba umthole ngamandla, uSmulders uthathe isinyathelo sokusiza umzimba wakhe welaphe nganoma iyiphi indlela abengakwazi ngayo. (Izindaba ezinhle: Amaphilisi okulawula ukubeletha angasiza ekunciphiseni ingozi yomdlavuza wesibeletho.)

"Ngaya RAW. Ngaziphoqelela ekuhlukaneni okulimazayo noshizi nama-carbohydrates (ngenhlanhla, manje sinikeza ubuhlobo bethu elinye ithuba, kodwa asisoze saba yilokho esasiyikho)," uqhubeka. "Ngaqala ukuzindla. Ngangihlala ngisesitudiyo se-yoga. Ngaya kubelaphi bamandla abenza umusi omnyama emzimbeni wami wahwamuka. Ngaya endaweni ehlanzayo ehlane lapho angidlanga khona izinsuku eziyisishiyagalombili futhi ngahlangabezana nendlala ukubona imibono engezansi ... ngaya kubaphilisi be-crystal. Izazi ze-Kinesiologists. Ama-Acupuncturists. Ama-Naturopaths. Abelaphi. Abelaphi be-Hormone. Ama-chiropractors. Ama-Dietitians. Odokotela be-Ayurvedic ... "kubhala yena.

Konke lokhu, kanye nokuhlinzwa okuningi, ngandlela thile kwasusa umdlavuza emzimbeni wakhe, futhi wakwazi ukuzala amantombazane amabili aphile kahle nomyeni wakhe, NgoMgqibelo ebusuku inkanyezi uTaran Killam. Encwadini, u-Smulders uyavuma ukuthi ungumuntu ozimele kakhulu, futhi akavamile ukuthanda ukwabelana ngempilo yakhe siqu nomphakathi-kodwa lokho kubukeka engenalutho. Impilo Yabesifazane ikhava ngo-2015 yamenza wabona ukuthi amava akhe ngomdlavuza empeleni angakwazi ukusiza abanye abantu besifazane. Yingakho enxusa abesifazane abaphethwe wumdlavuza ukuthi balalele imizimba yabo, balushaye indiva uvalo, bathathe izinyathelo. (Futhi sekuyisikhathi; abantu abanele abakhuluma ngomdlavuza we-ovarian.)

“Ngifisa sengathi singabesifazane sichithe isikhathi esiningi enhlalakahleni yangaphakathi yethu njengoba senza ngendlela esibukeka ngayo ngaphandle,” kubhala yena. "Uma ubhekene nesimo esifana nalesi, ngiyakunxusa ukuthi ubheke zonke izinketho zakho. Ukubuza imibuzo. Ukuze ufunde kabanzi mayelana nokuxilongwa kwakho. Ukuphefumula. Ukucela usizo. Ukukhala nokulwa."
