Time and tide wait for none. There could be times when we might feel like sitting beside our Mother or giving her a tight hug, but still something holds us back. And then one day she takes an exit from this world with the empty yet heavy vessel yet to be filled with unwavering love and care. This uninvited disease knocked at our door and entered into my Mother's life; it was only then I realized that so many people are suffering from cancer.
This is the story of my Mother who fought cancer. This is my journey with my Mother - a year that changed everything in my life. That 1 year made me realize the true meaning of the words Maa, Mother, Mom.
I was fortunate to have interviewed top-notch gynecologists and oncologists of the country and learned more about this disease. In my quest to scuba dive into the 'whys' and 'hows' of cancer, I asked them the questions that every patient and their family members might have during the treatment. I have shared all those questions and answers at the end of this book. This book explains all possible treatment procedures, surgeries, chemotherapies, side-effects, medication, cost, pain, mental situation and strength of a cancer patient.
Reviews:
This book is very unique. The author has written his heart out, sharing his mother's brave journey in fighting against cancer. As he gives a detailed description of his personal experiences, one can truly empathize with the author all the way through reading the book. The author not only shares his story but also sends a message to the readers to value their loved ones and take care of them, no matter what.

What a lovely story! This book actually puts together my real-life chapter and fears that I have in my head, collectively! Thank you for writing this and making us aware even more of how important it is to express our love to our loved ones before we realise it's too late!
