Ranchi. It is said that if one takes a step forward with courage, then one can overcome any problem. This is not just a saying, but Ranchi resident Sushma Devi has proved it to be true. Sushma Devi was once suffering from stage 3 colon cancer. But, today she is cancer free. People are amazed to hear about the daily routine of 74-year-old Sushma Devi.

Sushma Devi, a resident of Dhurva, was once suffering from colon cancer. Just 3 months ago, she has been successful in recovering from this serious disease. Sushma Devi told Local 18 that some doctors had given up on her. They said that she was too old. But, I had a strong desire to live. This was the reason why I did not lose courage and tried to eradicate cancer.

Today I do all the household chores

Sushma Devi said, I had to do more work. Even today I wake up at 4:00 in the morning. I take care of the entire house. I walk 5 kms. I believe that a person does not die of cancer but because of losing courage. If one has courage, then nothing is impossible. I wake up in the morning and do all the household chores. I also sweep and mop the floor. Because age is just a number.

I did not like to sit idle.

She further said, I have a son at home who is in CRPF. Apart from this, I have a daughter-in-law and grandchildren. But, I have eaten home-cooked food since the beginning. I have worked a lot. I used to move my hands and legs since the beginning, that is why I do not like sitting idle. The more you move your hands, the better it is. I wake up at 4:00 and do a morning walk of 5 km, this keeps my body fit and healthy.

Don't be afraid, face it bravely.

Sushma says that when she was diagnosed with cancer, she went to many doctors. They refused to treat her. Then she came to Paras Hospital. Here she was treated under Ayushman Card. No money was spent on the treatment. I just knew one thing that I have to live. I have to work a lot and travel. I was full of courage from within and I faced the entire treatment bravely. I knew that this is a bad time. It has to pass. Then what is there to fear?
