Patrice Aminati is just 30 years old. Despite her young age, the topic of “dying” is omnipresent. Because it has cancer at stage four, is considered incurable, is in palliative treatment. The fact that her will to live is nevertheless unbroken is also due to her small family, consisting of husband Daniel Aminati, 51, and her little daughter Charly Malika, 2nd and the question of how she stands to another child, she recently spoke to her husband in a detailed interview with “Die Zeit”.
Patrice Aminati has cancer in the final stage: “Every pain -free day is a gift.”
A good two years ago, the moderator and the 30-year-old went public with her diagnosis. Since then, Patrice has also let her followers participate in her fight against cancer on Instagram. And is not afraid to document the many bad days. She uses the opportunity to go into exchange with other patients: “It gives me strength to realize that I may have helped someone with that.”
The problem: the bad days are numerous. Then she suffers from hardly tolerable pain. “Sometimes I have severe body pain, sometimes itches and hurts my skin, actually everything can hurt.” She therefore says: “Every pain -free day is a gift.” Patrice got used to a “new kind of life”, but there were also times of doubt.

-Patrice + Daniel Aminati Discovered new metastases – and yet they are confident
“Sometimes it is easier to live – than face life every day. When I had such severe pain, there were moments when I asked myself: Do I let go now? I no longer get up? What she then drove was her “responsibility for my family”. The thought of letting her behind still chases her today. “For me, the idea of leaving our daughter is bad. How does Daniel deal with it? (…) And to imagine that my parents have to bury their daughter … terrible!”
“If I were dead now, ….”
Instead, she faces the challenges with a pointer humor, as her husband confirms. Often they now laugh at things that may work a little macabre, but for them are the best way to deal with the situation. If her husband accuses her everyday things like the laying of the remote control, she replies: “If I were dead now, you wouldn’t talk to me like that.” Humor and absurd jokes save them through time. And the hope.
The hope of a common future, which may also include a second child. Because your current medication has made a second pregnancy impossible to date, but cancer research is progressing quickly. “I hope that a medication will come onto the market that replaces the many tablets and gives me more time. And maybe another child.” In any case, Daniel Aminati would be ready, as he confirms in the same interview. Because even if he has to allow the thoughts of his wife’s death, as he says himself, “he never friends at all, never.”
