Son Ranveer Hugs Ailing Mom Sonali Bendre At Sloan Kettering Cancer Centre
Here’s a heartwarming picture of Ranveer hugging his mother Sonali Bendre at the Sloan Kettering Cancer Centre, New York where she is currently being treated
On July 4, Sonali
Bendre revealed that she is fighting a high-stage cancer and is undergoing
a course of treatment in New York. The actress has been admitted to Sloan
Kettering Cancer Centre and continues to inspire millions with her courage.
Now, we bring to you an exclusive picture if Sonali with her son Ranveer.
The picture in
question is the actress’ husband, Goldie Behl’s WhatsApp display picture and
has Ranveer lovingly hug his mother at the hospital. You may recall, in an
emotional post, Sonali had revealed how she and Goldie broke the news of
cancer to their son. She wrote, “From the moment he was born 12 years, 11
months and 8 days ago, my amazing @rockbehl took ownership of my heart. From
then on, his happiness and wellbeing have been the centre of anything @goldiebehl and I ever did. And so, when
the Big C reared its ugly head, our biggest dilemma was what and how we were
going to tell him.”
She added, “As much as we wanted to protect him, we knew it was important to
tell him the full facts. We’ve always been open and honest with him and this
time it wasn’t going to be different. He took the news so maturely… and
instantly became a source of strength and positivity for me. In some situations
now, he even reverses roles and takes on being the parent, reminding me of
things I need to do!
I believe that it’s imperative to keep kids involved in a situation like this.
They are a lot more resilient than we give them credit for. It’s important to
spend time with them and include them, rather than make them wait on the
side-lines, not being told yet instinctively knowing everything. In our effort
to protect them from the pain and realities of life, we might end up doing the
opposite. I’m spending time with Ranveer right now, while he’s on summer
vacation. His madness and shenanigans help me #SwitchOnTheSunshine. And
today, we derive strength from each other #OneDayAtATime.”
We bet with
Sonali battling cancer, it’s a difficult time for Ranveer and he too is
cheering his mother up. Our heart bleeds for the family and we wish the actress
a speedy recovery.
