Priya Dutt Talks About Her Brother Sanjay Dutt’s Fight With Lung Cancer
When star Sanjay Dutt was shockingly diagnosed with lung cancer in 2020, his sister Priya Dutt Roncon, who used to be a member of parliament, recently talked about how their family dealt with it. She complimented her brother’s tenacity and resolve and related how the family pulled together throughout trying circumstances.
A startling diagnosis for 2020
Priya remembered the day the family found out Sanjay was sick. She replied, “That was an insane period. His career had recovered once more. He was landing decent movie parts when this happened unexpectedly. He went through all with fortitude. He battled valiantly; it was lung cancer.
Selecting India for Treatment Amid COVID-19
Priya Dutt said the family chose to remain in India even though many advised Sanjay to be taken to America for treatment. “Our doctors here are really good. We have everything here and people who care; why travel to the US and sit by yourself? It was COVID-19 time, hence it would have been harder for him there.
Family Stands United Through Tough Conditions
Regarding their family relationship, Priya remarked, “We all give each other space, yet when something goes wrong we get together. For us, that is something absolutely vital.
Strong Willpower and Positive Attitude of Sanjay Dutt
Priya Dutt claimed Sanjay was first quite impacted. “He was disturbed.” Once he embraced it, though, he chose to fight right away. His treatment began right away.
Sanjay objected to being treated like a patient in his house. He maintained his regularity and displayed extraordinary strength. “He declared, “I will work out every day.” He used to return home and work out even following treatment. The doctor advised doing it—and he followed his advice—assuming the body permits it. He daily made use of his workout bike. Priya Dutt said, “His willpower is absolutely inspirational.”
Sanjay’s Cool and Positive View
Priya Dutt said Sanjay never harbours resentment in his heart. “He does not stay down for very long, although he may have terrible days like everyone else. “Whatever is in destiny will happen,” he often says, so avoid stressing. That about him, I truly respect. I wonder occasionally what gives him such strength. (Also read: Emotional Abuse, Divorce Drama & Hidden Truths: Ravi Mohan’s Explosive Statement on Aarti)
Expert’s Suggestion: How Families Should Deal with Cancer
According to senior consultant and radiation oncologist Dr. Gaurav Jaswal of Onco lives Cancer Centre, Talegaon, a cancer diagnosis sometimes feels like a storm in the lives of a family.
“It simultaneously brings a great range of emotions: astonishment, fear, rage, perplexity. However, knowing the kind of cancer one has would help one make better judgments, Dr. Jaswal clarified.
He advised doable advice including noting questions for the doctor, jotting notes during visits, and bringing a family member for encouragement. “You are free to mourn. Seek counseling; join support groups; speak with survivors, he said.
Significance of Physical and Mental Strength
Dr. Jaswal also underlined the significance of mental health, appropriate rest, and adequate diet. To help with stress, try deep breathing and meditation. A cancer diagnosis marks the start of a road rather than the end. It can be controlled with correct therapy and care. Thus, he advised not to panic; rather, follow the advice of your doctor.
