Life in Shambles:

My life was utterly overturned in 2016 when I was diagnosed with aBrain Tumor. I had suffered fits and attacks twice before I consulted a doctor. My uncle's son is a doctor who helped me proceed with the diagnosis and treatment. Though difficult, I stood my ground and fought with courage. The entire procedure was based in Jaipur and Gurgaon, where I walked toward a steady recovery.

Discussing the treatment, I underwent surgery and a month ofRadiation therapy.Hjärncanceris often difficult to treat because the brain is a very delicate organ. Even the slightest mistake in operation can lead to permanent, irreversible damages. But I was blessed to have supportive experts and doctors who knew what they were doing. The positive environment around me played a critical role in my recovery.

En pappas pärla:

Min pappa är bonde medan min mamma är hemmafru. Jag är det äldsta barnet i min familj, följt av en yngre syster och bror. Eftersom jag var äldst kunde jag inte bli svag inför någon. Men mitt viktigaste stödsystem var min far. Sådana behandlingar tar ofta en vägtull på en individs banksaldo. Vi är en medelklassfamilj, så det blir uppenbart att den ekonomiska aspekten alltid var i mina tankar. Men min far ordnade pengarna för min behandling och lät mig aldrig känna att något var fel.

Jag var förlovad med min damkärlek när jag fick diagnosen hjärncancer. Men bristen på medvetenhet om sjukdomen ledde till ett uppbrott. Jag var krossad vid den tiden och kände att jag blev illa behandlad. Eftersom jag tillhör en mindre privilegierad samhällsklass trodde de flesta åskådare att jag skulle bli galen efter en punkt. Men det är just den missuppfattningen jag vill utmana. Idag har jag återhämtat mig och har ett statligt arbete på järnvägen. Mitt hårda arbete och mitt engagemang har hjälpt mig att nå vart jag än är.

Livsstilsförändringar:

A lifestyle change that I incorporated into my daily routine wasYoga. I realized it could be healing for the body and soothing for the mind. Thus,Yogahas now become an inevitable part of my schedule. The best part aboutYogais that it has no side effects. It is an entirely natural process where you connect with your senses more. It is the main reason why I would recommend it to everyone. It helps you fight several health problems and energizes you for the day.

Family members and caregivers must focus on creating a positive environment because they are the pillars of survival. It is their love and support that keeps the patient motivated to live. I am actively associated with the village Panchayat in spreading awareness aboutBrain Cancerand tumours. My people need me, and I feel one with them to help them understand our twisted lives better.

Avskedsord:

My message to all cancer fighters is that they must remain strong and hopeful. In my case, it was a sudden turn of events that no one had expected. Similarly, no one anticipates such an illness in their body. But there is tiny that one can do. Though there are several preventive measures, there is no guarantee that you can avoid it altogether. On a personal level, I have never been someone who is drawn towardsTobakor drinking. It was a life-changing experience to undergo this treatment and emerge victoriously.
