My dad is a cancer survivor. I have seen closely what cancer does to a person. Not just the person, the entire family forgets how to smile.
Then I come across Sonali Bendre’s video where she puts on a bright smile on her face as she chops off her lovely hair. For a moment, I could feel what exactly she is going through. It is tough.
It is extremely difficult for a cancer patient to stay positive, wearing a smile is out of the question. The moment a person is diagnosed with this deadly disease, the world comes crumbling down. It hits you emotionally and you stop living. It is the most devastating phase and you know there are harder times ahead.
To smile under such circumstances proves how mentally strong you are. Sonali Bendre’s sunshine smile is highly inspiring and will give strength to many patients and their families. She knows there’s a long battle ahead and she chooses to fight it with a smile.
Nobody is ever prepared for such a news, it always comes as a shock. It teaches how uncertain and unpredictable life is. People who are lucky enough to survive, come out with a whole new positivity. Their attitude towards life changes forever. If you ever get a chance, speak to a cancer survivor and you will realize how beautiful life is.
You will stop cribbing about trivial issues and start looking at the bigger picture. You will enjoy each day of your life. You will find happiness in things which go unnoticed.
It is easy to speak about it but is unimaginably difficult for a person who is going through this tough time. Only a few people are resilient enough to realize this truth and accept it. Such people should definitely share their stories with others and it will spread like magic. Exactly how Sonali Bendre is sharing. We know it’s tough but she is tougher.
Her video will help many to regain that faith and strength that they have lost. I wish I had met somebody so inspiring when we as a family were battling cancer.
Get well soon strong girl. All prayers for you.
