HEY say, 'When life gives you lemons, make lemonade'. For author Arjun Sen, this wasn't just a proverbial phrase but a way of life. Diagnosed with terminal cancer at 32, and with doctors telling him that he had only 100 days to survive, the high-flying corporate executive didn't just fight for survival; he found a purpose, especially for the most important person in his life: his daughter, Raka Sen.

"Initially, I was freaking out. Later, a question popped up: How do I find a doctor and a hospital that can give me a better chance? When you seek help, all of a sudden, life changes and you realise you are not alone," he shares, during his conversation with CE in Bengaluru.
