I was Taking private tuitions for students to ease a little of my family's burden. 6 months ago, we found out that I have cancer. My family was devastated. Now, I feel that I am a burden for my parents since I don't earn anymore. I wanted to complete my education and get a job. With my cancer almost killing me, I don’t know if that will ever be possible,” Tapas.

He has sarcoma of the mediastinum, a type of cancer which forms in the cavity between lungs and the rest of the chest. This cavity comprises of heart, food pipe, windpipe, aorta, and thymus. When he got hit by cancer, he could neither eat nor speak. The immense pain in his throat had left him exhausted.
