The Fault in Our Stars
I am not really a person who likes to read, mainly because I can never find a book that seems to interest me, until I found
The Fault in Our Stars. The Fault in Our Stars is a drama and romance book based on two teenagers that connect through their lives with cancer.
I was able to relate to this book with many aspects and themes it contained whether it was emotionally or mentally through different events and experiences.

    The unpleasant feeling caused by pain compels people to seek medical assistance for appropriate treatment. Sometimes may vanish after a while even without seeking medical treatment because the body has a way of propagating its own healing and this is intricate physiological mechanism. Thus pain may be generally classified into two main group based on the duration it takes for the pain to disappear. Pain can be acute if it takes few days up to three months to vanish and the chronic pain persists for duration of three to six months or even a longer duration (Husebye ES, Perheentupa J, Rautemaa R, Kämpe O, 2009).…
