my story

I recovered, I survived, I rebuilt…

A particular evening walk led me to realize that my body was screaming for attention to combat a combination of rare diseases, Isaacs Syndrome accompanied by membranous glomerulonephritis, Lyme disease, and glaucoma.

Who could have predicted it? At once, I was an alien who had entered an unknown territory. I am short of words to express the confusion, dilemma, and despair felt by my close ones as I was diagnosed with a disorder that even Google hardly knew about.

With time I transformed my life much like the well-known Japanese art of Kintsugi, (meaning ‘golden joinery’), which encouraged me to be optimistic during rough patches, celebrate my imperfections, heal creatively, and finally, discover a more

 beautiful version of myself.

In the process, I learned to accept the situation and decided to pen down my experiences to share my side of the story and raise public awareness. I’m glad that my articles are being published around the globe, fulfilling my dream of giving something

back to society in my own little way.

Mine is a two-part story, which has made for a life of incredible learning. With an MBA in Finance, I moved up the professional ladder as an investment banker, often spotlighted with many awards and recognitions, all through a career spanning 13+ years. I had to quit my job as somewhere, something incredible was waiting to start.

Today, after 6 years, I feel healthier, and more independent, and am gradually switching back to leading a normal life.
