From a small village in Chhattisgarh to the global stage of ASCO in the USA—this journey has been driven by a passion for learning and a commitment to improving the lives of patients facing serious illness.

I am deeply honored to receive the International Development & Education Award 2026 from Conquer Cancer – The ASCO Foundation.

This recognition belongs not only to me, but also to my mentors, colleagues, patients, and families who have been part of this journey. It inspires me to continue learning, growing, and bringing the best possible palliative and supportive care to those who need it most.

Grateful. Humbled. Motivated.

Every cigarette smoked today increases the risk of cancer, heart disease, stroke, and chronic lung disease. The good news is that the body begins to heal almost immediately after quitting.

Choosing to quit to***co is one of the most powerful decisions you can make for your health and for the people who care about you.

On this World No To***co Day, let us take a step towards a healthier, to***co-free future.

Quit To***co. Breathe Better. Live Longer.

Not every emotional pain at the end of life is “depression.”
Sometimes, it is fear. Sometimes, grief. Sometimes, the search for meaning, dignity, and connection.

Palliative care helps patients feel heard, supported, and understood — beyond medicines alone. Because healing is not always about curing, but also about compassion, presence, and quality of life. 💙

Palliative Care is often misunderstood as end-of-life care.

In reality, it is about improving quality of life for cancer patients at every stage of treatment.

From managing pain and treatment side effects to addressing emotional distress, palliative medicine helps patients live with greater comfort, dignity, and strength throughout their cancer journey.

Because cancer care is not just about treating the disease — it is also about caring for the person.

A mother’s love is strength, comfort, and endless care.
This Mother’s Day, let us also remember to care for the women who spend their lives caring for everyone else.

In palliative care, compassion, dignity, and emotional support matter just as much as treatment. Every mother deserves comfort, understanding, and the reassurance that she is never alone.
