Life and Death

Miscela, a model, writes about Neerja Malik on 3rd, January 2017. 

"Here comes the story of an amazing woman Neerja Malik :) She is a bundle of joy. She practices gratitude by appreciating little things in life. Life, according to her, is a celebration that needs to be enjoyed on a moment to moment basis #Miscela #MyStory"

Right from broken bones in my childhood, to multiple miscarriages, to a stillborn child, to premature birth of my twins and the associate complications, to fighting breast cancer TWICE, I have been through it all. The moment I say Cancer, I am pretty sure you all get a mental image of severe chemotherapy, radiation, heavy dosage of potent medicines, grim, sorrow and stiff life. But no, not necessarily. My life is a bundle of infectious joy. I love to greet people with a heartwarming 100-watt smile, bringing in good vibes and good vibes only. Losing one’s hair during chemotherapy is one of the biggest battles women suffering from Cancer face. Once, after my intense treatment session when I noticed a clump of my hair fall off, to make light of the situation I remember standing in my balcony, plucking it out one by one and blowing it into the air. All the while saying to myself – he loves me, he loves me not.

My whole life has been one beautiful miracle. Facing cancer and conquering it twice has intensified my belief and faith in god making me more grateful and appreciative of life. So, to you I say, never ever ever lose hope. I have also written a book "I Inspire" which has positively inspired many people all over the world.
