“Those we love never truly leave us. There are things that death cannot touch.”
—Jack Thorne

We all fall in love, at different stages of life, with different kinds of people. But there is always that one person you tend to hold dear to your heart. No matter how many new people you meet or how many acquaintances you make, you tend to look for traces of that one person in anybody and everybody. That is the kind of lasting impact someone can leave you with. Now imagine, not being able to meet that one person ever again, because that is how destiny likes to play it. All you have of theirs are the memories that last for a lifetime. Notion Press, India’s leading self-publishing platform presents, Stage-4 by Soumya Mohanty, a story of love, trauma and redemption.

Stage-4 is the story of Soumya and Rupa, two people who fell in love with each other while studying together in college and got married to start their own beautiful family hoping for a happily ever after. But their world came crashing down when Rupa was diagnosed with STAGE-4 cancer. This is their story. A story where love and love only triumphs.

The author makes an attempt to reminisce Rupa, his strength for life and the timeless journey both of them embarked upon hand in hand dating back to Aug 2000. As they say, life must be lived in its entire vicissitudes and a love story which started on a magical note had its own share of success and trials too. For Rupa, her faith was bigger than her fears, her simplicity was too pure to be blemished, her flaws were even more beautiful than her perfection, her love for life far exceeded the pessimism around & nevertheless, her zeal to overcome odds outweighed the challenges life had to offer. But true to its nature, life took a U-turn when Rupa was diagnosed with cancer. What unfolded thereafter is Stage 4, where death failed to win over because the spirit for life continues to live on and inspire the world around. Flip through the pages and fall in love with the captivating story of a couple whose love stood the test of time & triumphed over the ultimate reality, Death.
