Faz o teu caminho | Nuno Santos | TEDxULisboa

Life is not always easy, and sometimes we have to make tough decisions. Nuno Santos was diagnosed with bone sarcoma, a disease with 3-5% survival rate. Eleven years later, he decided to amputate his left leg. In an energetic talk, Nuno shares how humor helped him cope with cancer — and how deciding to amputate his leg brought him a second life. The day doctors found he had bone cancer was the day he started to rewrite his story. He did chemotherapy, autotransplant, radiotherapy and a hip removal surgery. Later on he decided that amputating his leg would bring him the quality of life that he was looking for. Today, he manages to live without pain nor any sort of limitations. He exercises daily and motivates others in similar situations. He recently published the book “Vida Acrescentada”, a biographic narrative of overcoming and hope. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
