Deepika further says, ‘Life is like this. Those who are fighting like me, it is important for them to stand firm and become strong in such difficult times. Yes, I feel scared. This morning I was also scared, but I am happy that I found out in time. Last time I was advised that regular follow-ups were very important. If there is even a slight pain, do not ignore it.
