I too am a cancer survivor ..i faced it all alone ..i have no siblings.. My father deserted me saying he did not want to spent his precious retirement money on my treatment my husband just landed a job abroad...he had to go because he was jobless for a long time ..i pawned my jwellery for my treatment..my mother was by my side but made my life worse by nagging all the time.😢😢😢..i scraped money for my medicines and food...no person should go through what i went through..God gave me strength and daily i would fight back my tears and told myself..this too shall pass...its been 21 years ...😢😢 since..

I am overwhelmed by all the love I got for my comments..I am thankful to you all ..I had almost forgotten it and faced it bravely but today all you people s love has brought tears to my eyes..I am absolutely fine now in remission..but the pain and mental agony remains... Mental trauma healing is slow but with good people like you all my pain is lighter. God bless you all 🙏🙏

[@jahnveerajshekhar6215]

Love how she changes the interviewer’s word “traumatic” to “life-altering events!” That’s acceptance through grace.✨🌱

[@anubha1981]

She comes across as very intelligent and mature. No bitterness and no dependency on anyone. All the love to her.

[@meghalaratnaiya9113]

Answers from her heart ! My husband would always say this - Sickness will take you to places where your mind has never gone before !! One of them is facing the harsh and hard reality like what Manisha brilliantly said about pain that "People are not capable to sit with anybody's pain , let alone their pain. We always find an excuse to not feel pain."

[@ashtaws]

The most beautiful actress I have seen on screen. Her beauty in 1942 A love story and in Dil seh - was so mesmerising.

[@Besties591]

No other actress as looked as sublime and exquisite as Manisha in the movie 1942 a love story and no actress ever will! Her face is special !!! She is still the most beautiful in my eyes ..

[@Optimumprime728]

Damn! A strong independent woman spotted 💪🏻.

[@mysticshva7949]

The word “ damn” is used as an expletive to express anger, annoyance disgust etc. It is not a good slang I do not think that’s what you wanted

[@User_unkown11]

I love those women who go for graceful aging without any fillers or botox. Truly inspiring in this plastic generation..

[@minja7159]

If people like you, could only comment something that's not filler or surgeries related. She's talking about cancer battle, nothing to tell you

[@User_unkown11]

@@minja7159 omg why so offended 🤣

[@ns86532]

Agree so much with Manisha, I have had people around me left alone when they go through cancer. Never understood why...but I think the fear that they would be asked for financial help is one big reason people run away from cancer patients. secondly people only share happiness never want to be part of anyone's sorrow. Selfishness rules!

[@cindrella8797]

When Family is not with us,that feeling 😢😢😢 what she said is absolutely right about mental health,people who goes to psychiatrist doesn't mean you are having mental problems but to discuss your problems share ur thoughts ,u need to meet a doctor ,because mental illness can't be seen in xray or scan .. depression doesn't have any test to measure..it's you ,u have to tell the doctor and he should give u medication according to the way you are expressing him..lot of sleep issues also happen in depression

[@RS-uz3ud]

Her words were heartbreaking. It is true. In the end, only your parents will love you unconditionally. Your relatives will help if they can but you cannot expect anything from them. I am glad she realized friends your party with are never there when you are in trouble. I realized this very early in life, which is why I never invest in such friendships. I invest time and effort in genuine friendships.

[@creativecool73]

When things are good all are with you but when you have low period in your life, there is no one, you hardly have few with you, those are your real friends or well wishers, that’s life. Manisha seems like a very lovely person, God bless her, hope she lives a very healthy and happy life. ❤

[@EugenioJ.Ballenger]

Cool video, My relationship of 5 years ended a month ago. The love of my life decided to move on, I really loved her so much i can't stop thinking about her and the memories we shared. I've tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail. I'm frustrated, and i don't see my life with anyone else. I've done my best to get rid of the thoughts, but i can't. I don't know why I'm saying this here, but i really miss her and i wish i could get her back.

[@CharlesEvans-fj6gl]

have been in such a situation. My relationship ended about three years ago, but i could not let her go. So i had to do all i could to get her back, i had to seek the help of a spiritual adviser who helped me bring her back. We are back together, and i must say i am enjoying every moment.

[@EugenioJ.Ballenger]

Amazing, how did you get a spiritual counselor, and how do i reach her?

[@CharlesEvans-fj6gl]

Her name is queen stella laveaux, and she is a great spiritual counselor who can bring back your ex.

[@EugenioJ.Ballenger]

Thank you for this valuable information, i just looked her up now online. impressive

[@sunis4137]

If she decided to move on, there should be a reason and now she is not there in your life anymore. I understand it gonna be difficult for you now but this phase will pass.

[@wendyr4052]

This vid itself is therapautic...I have so much respect and admiration for this lady. She learned great lessons, gained wisdom and most importantly, is now sharing it with others ❤

[@user-yx9wq2cl1n]

I was smitten by Manisha Ji in 1942 A Love Story. It was 1993 and I was 14. Today listening to her in 2024 as a 44 yr old Im smitten again 😇. She comes across a mature and honest lady who has lived up to Life. Though I may be tempted to wish that life had been kinder to you but it is for the better that life has polished the best in you. Cheers Madam.

[@Officially-Witch_crafts]

I can 100% relate with her, I too feel lonely often even after family a huge family where I had shred myself for years for them, but none of them seem to be there even just to LISTEN. As I am more of a self made woman, I barely ask for any other help, just an ear. There is just my 8 year old daughter who empathise with me but I cant burdenise her tiny heart with my aches and sorrows. There is just one cousin sister of mine who listens, understands and sometimes cries when I cry in front of her, So overall just a sister and a daughter I have come to confide in. Rest of all, parents, husband and everyone else I love so deeply are not able to or may be not ready to LISTEN to me.
