Promise

"e;I'll be OK,"e; my mom said on FaceTime. I went numb. I'll never forget the day my mom, Shaily Shetty, called me from Florida and said she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Our lives turned upside down, oblivious to what lay ahead of us. This is a story about my mother's incredible will to live, the dramatic highs and lows, and the special childhood moments I experienced under her watchful eye. Over the course of her whirlwind treatment, I watched my mother fight tremendous odds and navigate uncertainty with faith and positivity. Whatever your journey, I hope my mother's fight inspires you or simply shines a light on the immense bravery that all cancer patients must have. I'm proud of my mom and grateful that I was able to share the last chapter of her life with her. Now, I share it with you.
