The auspicious Diwali festival season is finally upon us as the country will be celebrating the festival of lights in a few days. However,a heartbreaking post by a 21-year-old man with cancer has touched many people online.

The young man, who was diagnosed with stage 4 colorectal cancer in 2023, shared on Reddit that doctors have stopped his treatment as nothing more can be done. With Diwali approaching, he wrote that this might be his last time seeing the lights and celebrations of the festival.

In his emotional message, he said he always dreamed of doing many things in life like traveling, starting a business, and adopting a dog but now those dreams will remain unfulfilled. He shared that he could see the sadness on his parents’ faces every day, and he felt helpless knowing that his time was running out.

The young man said he wanted to write his thoughts publicly “to leave a small trace before I fade quietly into whatever comes next.” His post quickly went viral, with thousands of people expressing sympathy, support, and prayers.

Many called his message a painful reminder that life is uncertain and precious. His courage and honesty have made people around the world pause and reflect on how important it is to appreciate every moment and value their loved ones.
