Sonali Bendre is one of the most intelligent and positive people you will meet. There is a sense of calm and cheer that she brings along when she walks into a room and her social media is a reflection of that. Earlier this year, when she was diagnosed with cancer, she never chose to hide, in fact, she chose to write about it and tell the world about it through an Instagram post. The only thing that’s changed about Sonali so far, is her hair. The smile and the positive energy that her friends and followers get still remains the same.

In her latest post, she took to share the hardest parts of her battle with cancer and it is the most heartfelt post you’ll ever read. Keeping positivity aside, she explains she too have hard days, bad days and days when it hurt to even lift a finger, days when she’s cried and gave into negativity after multiple sessions of chemo and surgeries. She also said it’s okay to feel these things, your success lies in feeling all these emotions, realizing them and coming out of it. Her post almost had me in tears and I’m sure it will have a profound effect on you too.

Take a look.

Yes. Baby steps, it is. Like I said, she continues to be an inspiration.

We wish you a steady and full recovery, Sonali! Sending you lots of love and recovery vibes.
