Actor Nafisa Ali has been inspiring many with her cancer journey, which she seems to be facing with great courage and grace.
The veteran actor, who has been battling stage 4 peritoneal and ovarian cancer since 2018, recently shared new photos from her treatment journey, reminding everyone of the "positive power" she believes in.
Taking to Instagram, Nafisa posted a series of pictures showing her new bald look, a side effect of chemotherapy. Dressed in a yellow gingham top and brown pants, she looked as radiant as ever, smiling warmly for the camera. Alongside the pictures, she simply wrote, "Positive Power."
Take a look:
Just a couple of days ago, Nafisa opened up about her ongoing chemotherapy sessions. She revealed that her hair had begun to fall out due to the treatment. Posting a picture of her comb filled with hair, she wrote, "Here go my chemotherapy locks... Soon, I'll be bald."
Earlier, she shared an adorable post featuring a series of pictures and videos showing her grandchildren helping her cope with chemotherapy-induced hair loss. In the clips, her little granddaughters were seen gently cutting her hair with their tiny hands. Along with the pictures, Nafisa added a caption that read, "Finally, my little grandchildren helped me with my hair fall."
Nafisa was first diagnosed with stage 3 peritoneal and ovarian cancer in November 2018. After initially recovering in 2019, she recently revealed that her cancer had returned, and she has now resumed chemotherapy, as surgery is not an option at this stage.
