Today I have completed a milestone of 12 years. Today is 12’th birthday of my ileostomy surgery due to which I am alive and enjoying my life to fullest. This wouldn’t have been possible with out support of my family my husband my son my mom in law my maid Jamuna and my other family members who have been huge support to me and also my friends who morally supported me In my battle with colo re**al cancer.
Initial days were tough to accept the big change of stoma and stoma bag on my body but as I gradually accepted it it became immortal part of my body and life without which I would not exist I think.
Thanks to Dr Mahesh Goel and his team for doing Such major surgery laparoscopically and in minimal invasive manner.
Olivia Raberts, Dr Bhavna Sirohi, Dr Reena Engineer, Deshmukh saheb, Dr Ashwin Dsouza, Dr Shekhar Salkar, Dr Sardeshmukh all of you have been a wonderful medical support for me in my toughest times.
My friends Hemlata, Sushma, Megha, Malati,Chitra, Ranjita,Sh*tal,Mangesh, Sudhir,Nilesh,Pranita,Pradnya, Vandana etcwho have been great support to me and many more who didn’t meet me physically but kept me their prayers.
My siblings Aparna, Sonali, Kedar who supported in all possible manner May it be emotionally financially morally etc
Last but not the least my elder mama bhai mama and mami and my cousin brother Shreyas and Milind for providing me their flat to stay for the entire period of the treatment absolutely free of cost.
I will never be able to repay what you all have done for me in this life.
THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FROM BOTTOM OF MY HEART
