China woman visits Antarctica, returns, finds cancer tumour shrunk

A 67-year-old Chinese woman diagnosed with thyroid cancer fulfilled her dream of photographing penguins in Antarctica, spending 150,000 yuan ($22,000) on the month-long trip. After returning home, Wang Ying received unexpected news during a hospital check-up: her tumour had shrunk. Doctors said surgery was not immediately necessary but advised continued monitoring of her condition.
