If you were to meet Navi Indran Pillai in person, you probably wouldn’t believe that she is a breast cancer survivor or that she is still undergoing treatment. She resonates with joy and the kind of optimism not usually associated with one going through a serious illness.
Navi, who turns 30 on Oct 9, is still going through targeted chemotherapy – a maintenance drug for cancer patients who are in remission, and it is a lifetime thing. She goes for treatments every three weeks and each session lasts about seven hours.
