Atul added that it was during the trip that he wasn't able to eat anything and started feeling nauseous. Atul got himself checked, and they asked him to get ultrasonography. Recalling the doctors' reaction and how they informed him about a cancerous tumour in his liver, he said:
"After visiting many doctors, I was asked to get ultrasonography done. When the doctor did it, I saw fear in his eyes and I felt there was something wrong. I was told I have a tumour about 5 centimeters long in my liver and that it is cancerous."
In the same interview, Atul revealed that his first procedure of treatment went wrong, and his pancreas was affected. The wrong treatment worsened his condition, and he wasn't able to walk. Recalling the toughest phase, he said:
"The wrong treatment actually worsened the condition. I couldn’t even walk. I used to fumble while talking. In such a condition, the doctor asked me to wait for one and a half months. They said if they do the surgery, I’d get jaundice for years and my liver will be watery or I wouldn’t survive. Later, I changed doctors and took proper medication and chemotherapy."
We wish a lot of strength to Atul Parchure's family in these testing times!
