Renuka Nirantar

Brought up in Mumbai, Renuka now calls Pune her home. An extrovert, she enjoys being with, and observing people. Human emotions and psychology are topics that immensely interest her. A natural thinker (sometimes over-thinker), a self-talker (constantly) and an optimist (eternally), Renuka’s new-found interest in writing, coupled with a recent life-altering experience with cancer, led to the confluence of this book.

In ‘Cancer Thriver’, Renuka shares her experience and emotions on the roller-coaster ride of cancer. With anecdotes of TV serials, movies and web-series, and acknowledgment of simple pleasures of life, she shares the high-impact lessons that made a difference in her life.

By sharing her journey, Renuka is attempting to reduce the taboo and awkwardness around cancer. Her lessons and perspectives could help you realise that happiness is within you and can be accessed even in your toughest times. All you need is a positive perspective, and you will get that through her story.
