Episode Summary

When he and his wife consulted the doctor, they diagnosed it as piles, but the pain did not resolve. They again consulted the doctor, and he was asked to go for a colonoscopy, but he dropped the plan and went for a proctoscopy instead. He was diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer. Prakhar was shocked as he was not a smoker or an alcoholic. He is a pure vegetarian as well. He underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy as a part of the treatment. Chemo even made him suicidal. He then underwent surgery and was given a colostomy bag. He is grateful to have a great family and colleagues who supported him throughout the treatment.
