On coming back to India from the U.S., after her Masters in Journalism, she was pained to see that despite the rising epidemic of cancer, there was no “motivational literature on cancer” in India. She decided to write one. "To Cancer with Love" (Hay house) soon became India’s first joyous book on cancer. Over the years, it has become a source of strength and positivity not only for the cancer-stricken and their caregivers, but also for those looking for hope and positivity amid life’s adversities.
