Most popular yesteryear actress Manisha Koirala is living a second life recovering completely from a deadly cancer. As we all know, she was discovered with cancer in 2012 but did not let off her determination to fight against it. What kind of tough phase Manisha passed through during those times and how her family stood besides, she spoke briefly at a recent speech.
‘When I was diagnosed with cancer, first question in my mind was… Why me? Then I thought this is the end of my life and if God gives me a second chance, what should I do differently? Of course, I felt guilty for putting my entire family in this situation but cancer bought my family closer. Cancer happens to one person but it affects an entire family.
Then I decided to do those activities which gave me peace, joy and well being, following my heart. I grew as a person learning the ways to really honor our body and our life. During those times of surgery, people came asking me if I wanted to commit a suicide. Such was the trauma of being a cancer patient,’ Manisha explored her inner self. Thankfully, she never had such suicidal tendencies and leading a happy, healthy life now.
