charlie dalin has put his sailing career hold says he hopes inspire fellow cancer sufferers

It is difficult enough for any sailor only to complete the uncomfortable worlds of world, not to mention winning it but winning it while fighting cancer, as the French leader Charlie Dalin in January, is another type of hardness.

The 41 -year -old, whose book “Power of Destiny” (“La Force du Destin” revealed on Thursday, to AFP that he was suffering from a rare form of digestive cancer as he was directed to a Macif boat to win 64 days.

“It is certain that it has made the task a little more complicated that this” intruder “is on board,” Dalin told AFP.

“Today I see it is a double victory, in the race, and above all, in everything that happened to me.”

Dalin, who ranked second in its only former seller in 2020-21, was diagnosed with intestinal meat tumor (GIST) in the fall of 2023, a few days before the start of the Jack Faber race.

He had to get out of this race to undergo drug therapy, but after several months he managed to return to the sea.

“If the doctors have any doubts, I will not go,” he says.

“I was not to take any risks with my wife and my son. Sailing is my job, and they were happy to return to the water.”

Dalin chose not to share the news of his illness publicly, for fear that he would plan his plans to participate in his second rib, a stressful race that is passionately followed in France.

A few days before Macif Les Sables-D’olonne in northwestern France at the head of the fleet last November, a new examination showed that the tumor did not grow.

“The disease also made me put things in its right quorum,” he says.

“Just the ability to sail was already a victory. People often say that, but in my case this was never true.”

Once free of ground, take his daily medicine, take over his naval instincts.

Despite the constant fatigue, Dalin passed the good hope of the foreground and a gambling in the face of a storm in the Indian Ocean, which threatened to destroy his boat to the ancient matches. Most of his competitors went around and take a longer path.

“I held my strategy, I slept on average six and a half hours for every 24 hours, and he is more than my first seller,” he said.

“There were no deviations on the plane, so I used every free sleep.

“I felt pain in the stomach, but I just told myself: I have no time to worry about it. The pain has disappeared at the speed she brought.

“By the time I went back to the beach, I had almost forgotten.”

When he crossed the line in January, Flynn Shambania emerged at the celebration but after just a few weeks, he went under the knife.

“The history of the operation was the same if I did not leave,” says Dalin, who hopes to tell his story to give hope to cancer patients.

“If this helps people who pass this type of things, even four people, it will be great,”

He said he realizes that at least his career is the sailing.

“Today, this disease is stable. I have lost a lot of weight and no longer be able to compete in external races.

“The next era is not possible in my case, but I hope to return one day, perhaps in the races in the Atlantic.”
