Good things happen to Good people !

This may not be completely true for our friend Aditya Sharma, but together we can make this true by helping him out in this hour of crisis. Aditya, a doting son to his parents and a loving brother to his little sister, has been diagnosed with a rare cancer known as Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor (DSRCT) and has been fighting it for the past 2+ years. Aditya has undergone multiple Chemo sessions and has been on medication for the past 2 years. The recent PET scan reports have not been too good and the remaining tumor cannot be removed surgically.

Aditya has been referred to a medication that is not available in India and needs to be imported from US or Europe. He may be required to continue using this medication for long term and hopefully fight and overcome DSRCT. 

His friends and loved ones have known Aditya as a loving, compassionate person with a very positive attitude towards life. Which is probably the reason why, Aditya has been rock steady though this upheaval in his life! He is a person who puts a smile on everyones face and makes a place lively by his presence alone. He is passionate about Art of Living and has always guided us to eat healthy and to inculcate healthy habits. Aditya himself has very healthy habits, exercises and meditates every single day. He is a person who hasn't given in to the junk food culture. It is indeed very painful to see such a person suffer from this aggressive condition. 

Aditya's family has undergone lot of pain in the last two years and have spent every penny to see their loving son get better. Aditya himself has a nerve of steel and has always kept a hopeful and smiling face. However, with the recent results and considering the prices and availability of the prescribed medication, his resolve is a bit shaken. but the smile & hope still remains.
