I,
Neha Kar
, am
sharing
the story of my father, a
cancer survivor.
It all began in
November 2022
, when my father noticed an issue in his mouth. There was
no pain, itching, or bleeding
, and it had no visible effect, so we didn’t realize anything was wrong. However, after a few days, he felt his
teeth breaking into small pieces
and becoming weaker.
Concerned, my mother insisted on a check-up. She was
shocked
to see that the
sidewall of his mouth had turned deep red and greyish
. We immediately took him to a doctor, but none could identify
cancer symptoms
. Instead, they prescribed various medications.
Despite following the treatments, his condition didn’t improve. Multiple tests yielded no answers. Desperate for a solution, we consulted
one last doctor
, who strongly advised a
biopsy test
.
The biopsy was conducted at a nearby hospital, and the results confirmed our worst fear—
cancer
. We rushed to
Cachar Cancer Hospital
for further tests, where it was confirmed that he had
early-stage throat cancer
.
At first, he experienced
no major symptoms
, but once treatment began,
painful rashes developed inside his mouth, making it difficult to eat
. The
radiation and chemotherapy were intense yet effective
, leaving him
physically weak
and unable to consume food properly.
But he
never lost his confidence or hope
.
Determined to fight, he faced every challenge
with a strong mind and unwavering spirit
. For over a month, we visited the hospital
daily
and followed every medical recommendation
with a smile
.
We
never lost hope
, because we believed that
our support was just as crucial as the doctors’ efforts
in overcoming this difficult phase.
After
continuous tests and check-ups
, my father was finally declared
“cancer-free.”
He was scheduled for follow-up visits and prescribed medications to ensure his well-being.
Today, he is doing
much better
. Though radiation has caused
dryness in his mouth and affected his taste buds
, he can still eat.
Hydration is essential
—liters of water are required for recovery, but nothing is impossible.
As the saying goes,
Impossible itself means “I am Possible”.
