The emotional trauma that a cancer survivor goes through cannot be expressed in words or gestures. Even the ones closest to them cannot fathom it. And you can’t even imagine the courage it takes me to speak about it on a public forum. Although the courage you have shown to troll a cancer fighter is also pretty commendable. And just like you cannot imagine my thoughts behind doing this… even I can’t imagine the amount of trauma you must have gone through in your life to feel feelings of this extent of negativity.” She signed off the post with these words: “Just like I share everything else on social media, I will share my prayer for you here too. May you get peace within.” The Ek Chutki Aasma actress added the hashtag #Peace to her post.Read Chhavi Mittal’s post here.On Monday, the actress shared a post on Instagram, where she talked about how she dealt with the situation after the doctor told Chhavi about her cancer diagnosis.
