There are journeys in life that change you forever.
This has been one of them.
As one phase of my treatment comes to an end and my birthday approaches, I find myself looking back.
Not at the diagnosis.
Not at the surgery.
Not at the chemotherapy.
Not at the radiation.
I remember grace.
I remember the invisible hands that carried me every single day.
People often ask me, “How did you get through it?”
The answer is simple.
I never walked through it alone.
Every time I felt I couldn’t take another step, someone appeared to walk beside me. Looking back, I know those weren’t coincidences. That was God’s way of holding my hand.
During this journey, I realised that God doesn’t always appear before us in a divine form. He came into my life as my Gurus, my doctors, my nurses, my family, my friends, and even as someone who was once a stranger but became a blessing.
My Gurus taught me that surrender is not defeat—it is the highest form of faith. Once I surrendered, I stopped asking, “Why me?” and simply trusted that every challenge carried a deeper purpose. To my daughters…
A mother spends her life believing she will always be the one holding her children’s hands.
This journey reminded me that one day, without even realising it, the children begin holding their mother’s hand.
Thank you for holding mine. ❤️
To Mahesh…❤️
Thank you for simply being there.
Some journeys are never meant to be walked alone… And then there was my tribe…
My sister
My co-sister.
My incredible friends.
You rewrote the meaning of love …
You didn’t just stand by me.
You showed up.
You came home.
You took turns being with me.
You made me laugh.
You prayed with me.
You distracted me.
You made sure I never had to face my hardest days alone.Some of you even travelled across continents just to spend time with me.
When treatment took away my appetite, someone always knew what I could eat.
A box of dhoklas.
Soft idlis. gulpapdi ,
Pani puri on the day I suddenly craved it. 😊
Simple food…
Wrapped in extraordinary love.
One friend suggested I drink my cranberry juice from a champagne glass.
A tiny change in presentation…
A big change in perspective. 😊
