At the age of 28, Dr. Priyanka’s life took an unexpected turn when she was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. As a dedicated gynaecologist, she was no stranger to the medical world, but stepping into the role of a patient brought with it an entirely new perspective. Faced with a life-threatening diagnosis, Dr. Priyanka made a conscious decision not to let the disease define her. Instead, she embraced the challenge, viewing it as an opportunity to inspire others and spread a message of hope.

On the occasion, Dr. Priyanka Bagdi said, “Writing this book was my way of letting people know that even in the darkest times, there is a way forward. Throughout my career as a doctor, I have seen how illnesses deeply affect not just the patients but their families too. My life story is meant to offer renewed strength, perseverance, and the comfort of knowing that no one is alone in their journey. I am deeply grateful to the incredible medical teams at Apollo Hospital, Greams Road, and Apollo Cancer Hospital, Teynampet, Chennai, for their exceptional care and dedication. My heartfelt thanks to the staff of Bagdi Group for their selfless support, which allowed my family to focus on my recovery. Above all, I acknowledge my loving family, whose unwavering support and encouragement were my greatest strength throughout this challenging journey. Special thanks, to Wings Publication, for making my dream of publishing this book a reality. Thank you for believing in my story and helping me share it with the world.”
