A year ago, I was diagnosed with a very rare form of brain cancer called DIPG, which is considered to be inoperable and incurable and has a very low survival rate.
This book captures the whys and hows about the onset of the disease and later it talks about the highs and lows of recovering from the terrible symptoms, and side effects of the trials and treatments that I underwent.
But more importantly, it takes you on a journey which describes my state of mind from the weeks just before diagnosis, to many months after sustaining a successful treatment.
By the end, I promise to leave you in high spirits and confidence, no matter what kind of motivation you’re looking for, whether you’re faced with a life-threatening challenge, or a health problem, or lack of courage to follow your dreams, or any other trouble in life.
Even if you’re just looking to pass your time, I’ve got you covered!

She has been fighting DIPG, a rare brain tumour that is considered to be inoperable and incurable, but it has only made her a stronger person. She has become a staunch believer and lover of health, family and self. She strives to be a better and stronger person every day and always practises optimism. So you would love to know more about her.
Connect with her on any social media site or professional/educational network, by searching the name directly. It is quite unique. It is taken from the holy book of Sikhism, the Guru Granth Sahib which is in the Gurmukhi script of the Punjabi language.
“Rehas” is pronounced as “rayh-us” and means to be in a state of bliss and poise.
