At the age of 25, Lance Armstrong was one of the world's best cyclists. Lance Armstrong seemed invincible and his future was bright. But Suddenly he was suffering with serious of illness.The Doctor told him that he got a serious problem and it was “CANCER”. If detected early, its cure rate is a promising 90 percent. But Like most young healthy men, Lance ignored the warning signs, and he never imagined the seriousness of his condition. Going untreated, the cancer had spread to Lance's abdomen, lungs and brain. His chances dimmed.Wherever he turned he heard the same words “Everything over for Him”

But he did not cared about what others said & loose his confidence, he told everyone that
“A boo is a lot louder than a cheer. If you have 10 people cheering and one person booing, all you hear is the booing.” So after a combination of physical conditioning, a strong support system and competitive spirit took over. He declared himself Not a cancer victim but a cancer survivor. He took an active role in educating himself about his disease and the treatment. Armed with knowledge and confidence in medicine, he underwent aggressive treatment and beat the disease.
After his Survival 7 consecutive times he was the Champion of TOUR-De France.

"Pain is temporary
It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year,
eventually it will subside and something else will take its place.
But If I quit, Pain lasts forever."
