Surviving cancer is anything but easy. It could be the most difficult thing you've ever attempted. Those who have done it more than time may attest to the fact that it never gets any easier. That’s because every cancer diagnosis is unique and challenging. Jayant Kandoi knows this because he had faced sixth-time cancer in the last 9 years at different parts of his body and once again he was battling cancer for the sixth time in 2020. He knows that surviving cancer is amazing, but thriving with cancer is even better. And it’s possible. Learning day by day to live while you feeling like you’re dying is an extraordinary feat.

We all know that cancer isn't all rainbows and butterflies, and it can be difficult to break free once a patient has fallen into negative thoughts. But most of us have that one hope and inspiration that somehow manages to help bring some perspective and optimism to a situation.
