Dr. S. L. Bhyrappa never sugar-coated bitter truths. That’s what made him a legend of Kannada literature. I still remember his visit to Turuvekere when we were kids. My father’s face beamed with excitement and reverence. Long live the writer’s words.

At our Survivor’s Clinic this month, the focus was on brain fog and neuropathy—two invisible yet life-altering effects of cancer treatment. Survivors shared how memory lapses, tingling, and nerve pain affect daily life. The key message: these are real, manageable, and support
