‘Cancer is curable’

Emraan Hashmi’s son, Ayaan Hashmi was diagnosed with cancer in 2014 and was declared cancer-free after he fought it for 5 years. The little kid is one big example for all those who are diagnosed with the disease. Now, on World Cancer Day, an event was hosted by Nargis Dutt foundation in Mumbai and a video from the event has gone viral. In the video, Ayaan is seen giving a motivational speech about cancer and this cute boy is winning hearts with his speech. He started off his speech by first saying that this is not the first time he is speaking about cancer but this speech would be better.

The 10-year-old kid said, “As I said, cancer is horrible and it hurts you in every way, be it mentally or physically but after I survived it, my whole life was changed. I was a strong and fearless leader. For fighting cancer, you need to have a few qualities and that everyone has. You need to be strong, fearless and be a fighter. To end my speech, I will only say one sentence that cancer is curable.” Meanwhile, talking about Ayaan suffering from cancer, Emraan Hashmi said, “A family is emotionally devastated when somebody from that family is diagnosed with cancer. My son Ayaan’s remission phase – during which cancer might make a comeback – was a tough phase for us as we parent go through a lot of fear psychosis. The whole process is psychologically disturbing.”
