In an unfortunate development,
actor Rishi Kapoor lost his long battle with Leukemia. As we all know, the actor had traveled to the US for his treatment earlier and came back looking
younger and healed.
But he has had his share of health issues ever since. The family had been referring to the treatment as ‘marrow’ and today the family
confirmed that the actor was struggling with leukemia.
Let us first understand what
leukemia is – Leukemia is a cancer of the body's blood-forming tissues, which
includes the bone marrow as well as the lymphatic system.
There are several
types of leukemia and some even affect the children, however, mostly leukemia
occurs in adults.
According to Cancer. Org, most often, AML develops from cells
that would turn into white blood cells (other than lymphocytes), but sometimes
AML develops in other types of blood-forming cells.
To understand the course of
treatment that the actor may have undergone, we spoke exclusively to the subject
matter expert Dr. Rahul Bhargava, Director, Haematology, Haematol – Oncology and
Bone Marrow Transplant, fortis Mertis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram.
The doctor says the way it
appears, the star must have suffered from Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) which is cancer that starts in the bone marrow and is the soft inner part of certain
bones, where the body makes new blood cells. This often quickly moves into the
blood, as well.
Talking about the treatment
for this particular illness, Dr. Bhargava said, “There is a possibility that he
underwent a MUD (Match unrelated donor) transplant with reduced-intensity
conditioning (RIC), which basically means that he was given a lower intensity
treatment, considering his age.
How does MUD work?
In MUD, stem cells from
outside are injected into the body, and mature stem cells are targeted and
removed. A person has to be in the hospital for close to 21-25 days for this
procedure and then we wait and see how the body responds to the treatment. The doctor
adds that clearly the treatment couldn’t control his disease and he succumbed
to it.
conclusion
well we all know life is just a search for death and life became fulfilled after death, death is fixed with everyone's birth, so don't cry for death. we all say as we read heard or acquired this knowledge from our religious scripture but the truth is different no wants to lose their loved one.
you should always do the right thing because your good deed will recall after your life is finished and it will show your natural character in public opinion so don't cry on death but think I also died so let me do something which can make me immortal like some great personality like Mahatma Gandhi, or anyone to whom you most loved.
well, this is tragic news but the truth is truth and you must know and accept this.
