It is so overwhelming to see a stranger’s eyes welling up in concern when they wish me a speedy recovery.. I am just blown away with the positivity you guys send me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I know the world is praying for me Lekin Phir bhi Dua please (But still, keep your blessings coming) (sic),” she concluded.
