I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma on June 23rd. Started my first cycle of treatment July 2nd. Not long ago.
For me, it was a relief to hear what was wrong. The plasma cells in my bone marrow were rampaging, multiplying, squeezing out the red blood cells and it was time to begin doing something about it. I was also tired of being tired all the time. And you just know when something is not kosher with your body. So when I sat there with Bobcat- my life partner and reservoir of Yellow- and got the news I didn’t react and I didn’t cry. I’m an actress, believe me, I can be dramatic. Not just then though.
First the facts.
Myeloma is incurable.
It’s a relatively rare cancer of the bone marrow that affects about 6000 Canadians. Every year, approximately 2100 more cases are diagnosed.
I’m a junior Member in many ways, having been diagnosed at 37, while the average age is 65. Makes the disease not quite as ‘Sexy’ as other Cancers. But we can change that.
In the industry I’m in, you could say, its motive alone that gives character to your acting.
So today with Velcade and, Revlimid and other promising new treatments in the pipeline our survival rates are improving. But only with an ever expanding toolbox of treatments and awareness can this Cancer be beat. So I’m going to do everything I can to wrench the spotlight onto Myeloma and Cancer Awareness.
I believe it can be cured.
That’s the Dirty Realist in me.
So back to the ‘Yellow’ Diaries. And more on ‘Yellow’ and charging your yellow later…
On Steroids: you are HUNGRY ALL THE TIME.
When Dr. Ahmed Galal, my Warrior-Hematologist at Princess Margaret Hospital gave me my first cycle of meds, he capped his recommendation off with a charming gesture that meant: Beware of sweets.
Well. Sweet things aren’t the only temptation.
Every cycle of treatment, I’m on Dexamethasone for four days on, then four days off.
Who knew it would turn me into a free range chicken, pecking the landscape freely. I find it distracting to walk down my patch of Queen St without stopping for a nibble at the Pie Shack, scoping some sushi or sampling up kimchi and eggs.
I’m currently obsessed with the pepperettes at Meat on the Beach. I had a Gollum-worthy breakdown at the counter recently when I found out they haven’t restocked. So I’ve always been fond of food, fought my battles with food (having been a model) and finally at 37 discovered balance. Until the ‘roids hit that is. Then I see a plate of ‘Reliable Halibut and Fries’ and my stomach goes: THAT IS MINE.
I know I should be doing other things. Like, uh…healing. But so far I’ve kept up a punishingly normal schedule even during treatments. I take meetings, write, sign contracts, read scripts, buy and barter furniture, teach yoga, buy a house, begin to renovate said house. It’s the covert type ‘A’ in me. My years of drama school and manufacturing an alternative reality for a role have also come in handy. I know I’m not trusting the situation. I’m treating my battle like its inconvenient, managing the stage like a tyrannical Bollywood choreographer, but worst of all, I’m not looking it in the eye. I’m letting the situation tyranise my heart. I need to ask for help and support.
They say, name it, then you can recognise it. Then deal with it.
Yup. In time.
Back to Life on Roids. The wetsuit.
It’s an entirely unique experience. When I’m on steroids, I can feel my skin stretch and expand and move in ways and sensations I haven’t felt before. It can be fascinating (for some like myself) to meditate on the pathways of your organism. I bloat up to three times my normal ‘size’. It’s like putting on a wetsuit. Except its kinda permanent. Until you stop taking the roids. Then I deflate again.
Now all this time, I understand that the meds are doing their work. Swimmingly. I can feel it. Bobcat named it. We call it ‘Gently Carbonating’. It means the plasma in my bone marrow is getting beaten back. And its all good. Sometimes it feels like I’m wearing vibrating mitts. Or those thick Nova Scotia artisanal socks. Full of fleas.
I’m getting better. My prognosis, given my ‘Junior’ status and stage of disease, is very good. I’m aiming for Full Remission- and with Dr Galal and Velcade as my co-conspirators- this mission is in the bag. That’s my claim and I’m plowing it into the mountaintop. Though I’m not sure why I keep mixing up ‘Remission’ with ‘Transmission’ and ‘Transgression’- maybe that will get clearer down the line.
On August 4th, TIFF announced its lineup for its Galas and Special Presentations for the Canadian Section this year. I have history and a successful and seriously affectionate association with the Toronto International Film Festival festival. My first Canadian film, Bollywood/Hollywood had a Gala opening at Elgin Theatre. Then ‘Water’ the source of so many positive beginnings in my life, opened the Festival and went on to acclaim and an Academy Award Nomination. Four films opened at the fest since then over the last few years and now this year, fittingly, Dilip Mehta’s ‘Cooking with Stella’ gets a Gala Red Carpet Premiere. ‘Defendor’ by Peter Stebbings also gets a slot. I went for the press conference but had to bounce down to PMH for my chemo treatment. And blending that energy felt just fine. Though at the time I didn’t tell anyone, I felt more invested in my day. Less juxtaposed. So the two worlds can blend: its okay to cross over from ballroom to chemo daycare. There was one difference: the press conference was more stressed. And no juice boxes. Bummer.
So I have two films in this year. Celebration.
Do I go?
Do I deal with the current red carpet obsession with pursuing the ‘of the moment’ perfection? I have after all, set myself up in this world.
I’ve also been groomed in subversion. By the film makers I’ve worked with and the stories they chose to tell.
I don’t want to hide. I want to celebrate. In my wetsuit. This is going to make the week and evening very interesting.
I’m going to listen to my marrow. Again.
NADA brought a spark to my appearance at when they dressed me at the recent MMM festival in Toronto when I appeared there right after getting diagnosed with Myeloma in July. Feels right.
Down to the name. NADA. Nothing. Let it go. Drop it.
I remembered you told me, you are always HUNGRY … now I know why. “I’m aiming for Full Remission” this is the best news I heard for days… 🙂 Please don’t mixing up ‘Remission’ with ‘Transmission’ and ‘Transgression’, specially not Transgression… 🙂 Thanks for the smiles faces … i can see them
Lisa,

Hi Lisa,
It is again sad to read of a new MM sufferer and I just wanted to wish you well with your journey.Your may if you so desire, read Hamada’s journey on http://www.susiehemingway.blogspot.com
and also on:
http://www.susiehemingway.com
Sincere regards and wishing you well.
Susie Hemingway Moursi
I’ll pray for you getting better and better all the time.
I believe in you.
We all believe you’ll recover from it.
Firstly, i want to say it’s admirable to see you being so brave about this.
Secondly, i think you should also look into alternative medicine. Chinese herbs, Acupuncture and drinks loads of fresh coconut water and cook with coconut oil. they have antiviral qualities to them.
Stay Strong
xoxo
If you did not cry, who else has the reason to cry for you?
You are strong enough to survive in every situation no matter how hard the situation is. I believe in you. Please use the potential that embedded in your internal life to fight with Multiple Myeloma. It is now cancer until it is not. And I believe you are the one who will change the history of the disease.
Take care and hold on, Lisa Ray, the strongest lady I have ever known.
PS: Share an article with you. 🙂 pls click the website of mine.
Hey!
If you intend to create awareness you already have. Before reading your blog I wasn’t aware of Myeloma, however now I have googled enough.
In life the bend in the road sometimes doesn’t turn exactly the way we imagined. And believe me this experience is going to turn out much more enriching , much more exhilarating than you can possibly imagine.
It is just another reason for change. Don’t get intimidated , fight it.
There are worst things , worst situations happening to people all around , yet they deal with it. That’s the spirit of life , the never dying hope . You are never alone in misfortune or illness.
God knows why I am giving this lecture , using waste words.
It’s not a comment , I just wanted to get the word across
and I am too tired to use my engineering skills to find a point of contact to you, so this place. sorry !
Lisa,
I am going to read your every single tweet , I am going to read every blog you write, I am going to see every interview you give. I don’t have a trace of doubt as to what now will follow will be exemplary and a source of inspiration for many.
Good Luck , and you have all the help and support from unknown quarters , from nooks and corners in this world.
Whenever you feel low , just pour it in here. We will share it with you.
Now if I am not trespassing can you please tell .. I mean I was just wondering .
Is it Symptomatic myeloma cause I thought you were anemic requiring a blood transfusion ? What is the ISS?
There are some other technical Qs I have , but then I don’t know whether you will ever read this in the first time.
You just educated me on myeloma.
BR,
Neil.
PS: I saw ‘Water’ a week back and then “ICTS’ day before yesterday. I never could find Lisa Ray , it was always Tala and Kalyani. I googled and read random snippets on you . I learnt of your unconventional choices. And my curiosity grew. And so I decided to follow every other movie of yours.
I am too much of an individual to be a fan of someone. Yet in all that I can muster I appreciate you a lot.
So , Mam fight back . I want to see many more of ‘Water’ . I am just not ready to let you go yet.
Lisa is , I believe, you are a very strong woman who can overcome any situations – even though cancer is not something to be taken lightly and having said that, like Hanan and Shamim – I truly support you in any way I can and the first step is to join the Myeloma Canada (even though I am thousands of miles away). Last but not least, Lisa…take each day as it is … take time to smell the flowers and feel the sun on your face…eat well, sleep well, most importantly, always smile even though some days can be tough. ps: am watching an episode of Blood Ties where you star in season 1 … as usual , you are lovely and look the same 😀
Lisa, just want you to know that I truly admire the way you have accepted and tackled this. Life’s a b***h but keep fighting coz we’re all rooting for you.
honey, everything will be ok, we love u ..
Lisa,I love you.
Never Stop Fighting.
You’ll get well.
Dear Lisa, thank you so much for the happiness that your films brought to me this summer, your smile is the most beautiful thing in the world. I’m shocked tonight when know the news about the ca, and I am so sorry. But I believe everything would be fine, it could be cured, because you are so kind and not weak, you can definitely handle it. Never stop fighting. I will pray for you everyday.
Dear Lisa,
I love you… we all love you…. and we all support your persistance and will to embrace life in all forms… you are wonderful… keep your spirit high.
Best of luck. Never Stop Fighting!!!!
Dear Lisa, I’m not sure if you could see these words.
Actually I have only one word – Love.
Lisa, we love you!
Lisa, we support you!
Lisa, all fans from China are waiting for you!
No matter how seasons change, no matter what comes to you after treatment, our love will never change! We will love you forever! Forever and ever!
We all have confidence and faith,
We all believe you can do anything,
Lisa, you will all win. We never doubt!
Please, please…
Win again! Be our favorite forever!
Cheer on! Fighting! Lisa
We are always with you!
We can’t hold you hands to transfer our energy and forces,
While our hearts are accompanying you!
The hearts of all fans from China are following you!
The power to heal comes form within thyself. Never go into battle with dis-ease, for battle begets more battles. You have been chosen to lead with a higher grace than what you chose for yourself. For your wisdom gained will inspire other people. This is just another tool you can teach with. Become in tune with all the healing frequencies that surround you in this moment and every day. Once we have the knowledge of the cause and source of our dis-ease we then begin to wholy heal honestly. Elevated intakes of oxygen help tremendously in eliminating C cells, as well as a concious awareness of what we put into our bodies. A nutrition of raw veggies and fruits and flaxseed oil with cottage cheese has proven to be excellent and its yummie with toast. I think I’ll have that for breakfast. Be healed soul sista ( we share the same B-day ). You are now in the distant healing networks of the Universe. I send you infinite blessings, love and joy.
Namaste,
Audrey Denise Lagares Lama
I am kinda sad with the news. I just hope you will get well with your treatment. I like your movies with the director Shamim Sarif. I wish you well so that you will make more movies. Take care!

Remember, you are not alone in this. Everyone knows somebody that is affected by cancer. I have a dear friend who was diagnosed with stage 4 Nasopharyngeal Cancer in 2005, but thanks to aggressive treatment, prayer, and the will to survive, he will soon celebrate his second year of being cancer-free.
That’s why I firmly believe that if you want to be healed, you will be.
Last but not least, as beautiful as you are, your greatest asset is your inner beauty you show, so don’t be
concerned when treatments change your appearance. You will always be one of the most beautiful and spiritual beings I know.
Enjoy your day. Don’t push yourself too hard and focus on the positive. Here’s my motto: every challenge is a blessing, like a shadow in the light.
Much love and light,
Sabrina
Only learning of this “obstacle” (that’s what I’ll call it…not a “tragedy” not a “sickness” not a “disaster”…simply a “bump in the road”) just now, I am writing to express my support…an extra “voice” in your quest in awareness of this rare form of cancer.
I’m off to do my own research…
A fan
Don’t give up
I hope you get well soon
I’m always with you
I am so sad to hear that you have cancer. I pray for you and for your partner! May God give you both the necessary power and energy to overcome this disease.
All my sympathies are with you dear and I want you to know that I am here whenever you need me day and night.
Dear Lisa:
I will pray for you. And I would like to share my experience with you.
Although I am not a devout Buddhist, but when I was sad, pain, helplessness, hopeless , I will still chant “ná mó Avalokiteśvara”. (“Avalokiteśvara” is a bodhisattva)
After I chant “ná mó Avalokiteśvara” many times, I would feel better. This is what I want to share with you.
I know it sounds silly, and maybe you have other beliefs.
I did not want to offend you or your beliefs, I just want to do something for you, and hope to make you feel better.
If I offended you, I apologize.
My English is very poor, if I used the wrong words or wrong sentences, please forgive me.

My Aunt used to have cancer.
She found it on 62. She felt depressed at first.
But she never give up on it. She’s just fight back!
Now All the cancer is gone!
She’s now very healthy and stay strong as her age 65.
You are now just 37! Still young ,Healthy and “Sexy”.

OMG! Lisa, have courage and please get well soon.
The lesbian community all over the world loves you and thanks you for being a part of ‘I can’t think straight’ and “World unseen”.
Hi Lisa,
I was shocked to find out that you were suffering from multiple myleoma. You know they say it is always the good ones. But from reading your blogs, you are truly an inspiring individual. Carrying on with your normal routine and hectic lifestyle and not breaking down into depression, which could be so easy. I hope and pray you always keep the faith and stay strong like you are doing.
Your films have moved me and encouraged me to become more comfortable with who I am. However, the real Lisa Ray has given me such hope and inspiration. Thank you for that.
I hope to see many more movies starring you in the future 🙂

Dear Lisa,
My friend’s dad was dying from cancer, went to many specialists but no hopes, he couldn’t eat, couldn’t talk, he was at his final stage when we were lucky to find this very young doctor specialist in Chinese herbs in a small town of Zhongshang, China.
After 4 months treatment the cancer was gone and all cancerous cells just disappeared.
What impressed me is that I asked if it was difficult to treat the cancer and he told me cancer is just a normal disease that has cure. (My dad die of cancer 8 years ago)
I’ll be happy to help if you want to come China.
K
BTW, I love listening to you in your interviews, I can learn a lot about life.
Dear Lisa
Sadness for all day, now I know I need to stop crying any more.
“If you want to change your life, change your thinking.”
you know the battle has just begun. beat it no matter what it took.
we will pray for you and send all of our best wishes your way. With love and light to you.
Hope you gave your mind the goal of perfect health.
by using the power of your mind ,you can control your response to therapy, encourage your immune system to fight disease .
i believed you are more powerful than the disease and you could proved it.
we will always be there for you
Hi, im always been a big, big, big fan of urs. Im a doctor and i know wat myeloma is but i always believe in miracles. i know God Loves all of us and He definately has some thing very very beautiful stored for u. Trust God and you ll be fine.
Wishing u all the very best for everythin u plan to do in ur life and a very speedy recovery. May God Bless You.
Love and Prayers.

Dear Lisa,
I think is truly wonderful that you want to give awareness to people about Myeloma. It’s extremely important, specially nowadays that more and more people are being diagnosted with this disease.
We all love you and we all want you to get better and better each and every single day.
You have a beauty that comes from the inside and it’s more powerful than the outside.
I think what might be interesting for you when we talk about getting help and support to maybe getting to know people with Multiple Myeloma and talk about it, share experiences, this might help.
I’m glad to hear you are getting better and you will get better even more!
I love you Lisa and all I want is you best and see you doing what you love!
About going to the red carpet what I worry about is your immune system. I don’t know exactly about the treatment you are under but the one my grandmother is taking and also the mother of my stepmother, they have to avoid crowds because their immune system are more vulnerable.
Thank you again for sharing your journey with us. if you need bone marrow donation, I will fly to Canada. You’ve added so much to my days by doing the work that you do, I will be forever thankful and if I can do something to help you at this moment in your life I will.
I will be praying for you!
Take care,
Larissa.
so, i guess your next movie should be called “never stop fighting”? lol thats what everyone on here wants you to do at least. you have amazing support and i hope that all good things come your way. great job in your films and your a pretty great writer here, very hilarious
:]
emmie
Lisa, you are the Goddess of Courage. I know you will fight the good fight and you will ultimately win. There are countless numbers of people who love you dearly, together we can fight the Big C and find a cure.
I determined to join the fight from the moment I read your post last night, so I hope you don’t mind if I stop in and say “Hello” often.:)
I came across this article from Modernmedicine.com earlier today and would like to share it with you:
From Modernmedicine.com:
Stem-Cell Transplant Key to Early Multiple Myeloma Therapy
Autologous hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation should be part of initial treatment (see the link below.)
http://www.modernmedicine.com/modernmedicine/Pathology/Stem-Cell-Transplant-Key-to-Early-Multiple-Myeloma/ArticleNewsFeed/Article/detail/604533
Publish date: Jun 17, 2009
WEDNESDAY, June 17 (HealthDay News) — Despite the emergence of novel agents to treat multiple myeloma, a combination of high-dose therapy and autologous hematopoietic stem-cell therapy continues to be the best initial treatment, according to an article published in the June 18 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
Jean-Luc Harousseau, M.D., of the Rene Gauducheau Cancer Center in Nantes-Saint Herblain, France, and Philippe Moreau, M.D., of the University Hospital Hotel Dieu in Nantes, France, use the example of a 59-year-old man who presented with lower back pain and fatigue, and who was subsequently diagnosed with multiple myeloma. As he was relatively young and had no coexisting illness, the recommended treatment was induction therapy then high-dose therapy together with autologous hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation.
Although some experts recommend initial therapy comprising a combination of dexamethasone and lenalidomide or a triple agent combination with bortezomib instead of early transplantation, the authors still recommend transplantation because life expectancy is more than 80 percent at five years after transplantation and because lenalidomide is not yet approved for newly diagnosed patients in many countries. The authors further note that lack of data is also an issue.
“Given the lack of long-term data, the durability of the response and the efficacy of salvage treatment after the use of novel agents remain unknown whereas data regarding autologous stem-cell transplantation are more mature,” Harousseau and Moreau conclude
Both authors reported financial relationships with several pharmaceutical companies.

Stem Cell Transplantation
Stem cell transplantation (SCT) is often used to treat multiple myeloma in patients younger than 70 years of age who are otherwise healthy. Stem cells are the blood-forming cells in the bone marrow and lymphatic tissue from which all types of blood cells (e.g., red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets) and plasma cells arise. In stem cell transplantation, high-dose chemotherapy is used to destroy bone marrow cells (i.e., myeloma cells, normal blood cells) and healthy stem cells are then transplanted through a vein. The transplanted stem cells then begin to produce healthy blood cells.
Much light,
Sabrina
i’ve just read this. i just learned about this disease. i feel so incredibly sorry but also admire your strength. can’t tell. a very good friend of mine is fighting against breast cancer since years. it is unbelievable.
Dear Lisa, I send a lot of positive energies, can see that it will not be surrender and you´ll fight.
Kisses from Venezuela.
why am i crying?i cant stop my tears…I never felt like this in last the 27 years.starring at your poster in my bedroom…..
Hi Lisa, Sorry to hear about this. While I cannot imagine what you must be going through, I wish you all the very best — be strong.
Amit
Lisa be strong as always…take care!
please never give up, you inspired me
i dont know what i can say to make you fell better
so im going to say you in spanish
lisa porfa nunca te rindas eres una super chava que me inspiro a seguir adelante asi que tu has lo mismo nunca te rindas lucha y venceras
no se por lo que puedes estar pasando y recuerda que simpre hay personas que te apoyaran aunque tu no lo conoscas como yo
cuidate
take care I LOVE YOU DONT GIVE UP
I believe you can and will beat this. I am a scientist (as the name might suggest) and time and time again I see the workings of a higher power overcome what present medicine cannot. (though the stem cell research is quite promising)
My point is I believe in you and with faith and your strength anything is possible.
I do not know you, here, in New Delhi. But you have magnificent screen presence I have noticed for years.
Fighting things in life is tough. But I believe in God and with my prayers every moment of my life, I am praying for your early recovery. You will be well.
…i am so sorry to hear this news..!!! but anyways.. as your welcome quote by ee hemmings in your own blog says.. never stop fighting…!!!! its a tough fight… and ultimately you may loose.. but one has to carry on fighting.. and i am sure.. a bold lady like you can certainly do it
Everything will be all rite, dont worry……..
Be Brave as always…..
Love…. Joyshree….
Dear Lisa,

Hi Lisa,

You’re gonna come out summa cum laude. There are a billion people rooting for you. Have the blast of your life; we are there to pray for you.
Keep hitting.
Dear Lisa,
The realist is you is right
You can fight it and win
All are best wishes are with you
Dont ever give up
Hi Lisa,
Quite sad to know that you have diagnosed with cancer.
I am not sure whether you are aware of the possible non-invasive treatment available which is mentioned below.
http://www.cytotron.com/cancer.php
Please check out this option & see if it can help you.
dear Lisa,
It’s very inspiring to read the Yellow diaries. I’ve always loved your performances and admired your braveness and love for life. Please keep the strength for fighting, because I think it shines your eyes in the most beautiful way they are!
sending you love and hopes from Taiwan~
hii lisa
myself Dr. Sumit Arya i am a dental surgeon by profession ,graduate of the best institute in india, although the disease you are diagnosed is not under my profession but i have had experience as on of my uncle suffered from the same and he is completely cured through chemotherapy done at tata memorial mumbai and he followed strict yoga routine and accompanied ayurvedic herbal treatment . if you have any faith in ancient indian tecniques and can follow them i can mail you the details
regards
Dr. Sumit Arya
Bravo!
Get well soon!
Lisa, I love your attitude, keep it going and I do believe in miracles, esp for great persons like you!
Faith and peace..
Lisa… its not because of you are my all time favorite indian model.. but because you are a nice person and a loving personility and a good human.. I will pray for your well being…
God will be with you and carry you through rough times.. you will be always be supported by the almighty.. take care of urself and follow the medical routines.. U will be back on the ramp soon
Willpower, courage & enthusiasm towards life in your circumstances are exemplary. Your attitude & conviction reminds me of my uncle who went to heaven in Dec 04′ due to brain cancer.
I’am of a strong belief that 90% of the cure is within. One just needs to be effortlessly at peace or at home with ones own self. This might be achieved by yoga, meditation, prayers ( done by you or done by others for you) & most importantly love for ones ownself & love for any one who crosses our path. The other 10% might be concerned with our Doctors and their medicines & treatments etc. It would be great if one can enjoy these & not treat it as a fight.
Wishing you all the love, prayers & strength of this universe. May God/Nature be always by your side.
Avanish.
Dear Lisa,
This is really a devastating news for your fans likes us. But nevertheless I think that this would help you to collect all the courage and determination to compete and come out of it with true colors. You will also get some time to spend with your family and some time for you alone.
Don’t you give up. Good exercise and health food may also help you in keeping up your body strength.
Stardom is always there. Don’t concentrate too much on it. You are too precious for us.
But as always GOD is there, so prayer will also help. As we are praying for you.
GOD Bless you.
My best wishes to come out of this strongly.
Haridas M
Isaiah 59 states that “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear ”
Lord is faithful and still he’s faithfull to Keep you up and steady to bring back to your Normal Life..
Its the time we will and be with the Lord almighty and receive the blessing and curing from the great God of our who created us.
I am amazed by your spirit, lady! My Mom had lymphome and she was the most graceful being ever even in that sickness. She fought but lost while what I am glad for in your case is that you will win against death and disease. You have age, information and the right spirit. There with you in this fight. Love
Kirti Pandey
Don’t worry! You will be fine. My prayers go out to you!
I have not seen any of your films.. frankly speaking, I dont even remember your face.. I live in a different world perhaps to what you do..
But all I know is I have grown up listening to the ad starting with “Lisa Ray.. Mashoor Model”.. All I want to tell is you live in the hearts of millions of people and they all are with you..
I wont tell all the cliche for you regarding God, fighting life.. I just want to tell you that in anyone’s life, people “LIVE” for days amounting to a max of 100 days.. all other days, they just go through the routine..
Dear Lisa,
Several years ago I ran into you at the Carter road Cafe Coffee Day, and you were as friendly and warm as when we used to interact in the Kasoor days! We exchanged numbers and planned to chit chat, but as is the norm in the film industry that never happened. We got busy. And now I hear this. Am so sorry for what has happened, and yet, what can one do? Life. Your blog is wonderful, you write so, so well, and I only can wish that you fully recover from your illness. I send you a great big, tight hug!
Wishing you strength, if not now, then certainly for later.
Tanuja.
Dear Lisa,
Its very small thing and nothing to worry about.You will be alright in few months.
Just increase the intake of oxygen by doing Pranayam(breathing excercise) everything will be fine.
This all things happen because we have become miser as far as taking oxygen is concern.
Oxygen is only cure for all disease.
Contact Yoga Guru like Ramdev Baba for more information and help.
Thanks & Regards
Sai
Get Well Soon………………Mamu
Lisa, every night has a day. Fight the damn cancer, and we all will pray for you. You have to be around. 🙂
Dear Lisa,
I am really sorry to hear about your cancer. Although I am not a great fan of yours but as I was just going through your blog message on rediff.com, did i came to know about your illness.
I have just come across “Naturotherapy” which has now gain popularity among many and claims to have cure for even cancer using only natural diet and some physical workout, without any medicines or surgery. In particular there is a product “WHEAT GRASS POWDER” which is very very very effective in bringing the haemoglobin to normal levels. I want you to please try that out just for 1 month along with your normal medication that you are taking.
I hope that my message reaches you.
My best wishes are with you always.
Regards
Sunil
Lisa,
Am a huge fan.. you were the first real example of a global glamour Indian and the most beautiful one at that. .
Was shocked to read about your illness and more so when I heard your version of it. But am somewhat at ease when I see the support you have from friends, fans and family. I will pray to the Gohonzon for your recovery.
As you’ve mentioned, since the median age for this disease is 65, that’s perhaps why it’s deemed incurable. At 37, you being the rockstar you are, am sure will re-write medical history. We will, with you.
Dear Lisa,
I read your blog entry and I am amazed at the way you have taken the news, and the matter of fact way you plan to fight it.
I feel impressed and inspired by you.
Wishing you all the best.
Anirudha
Dear Lisa,
I know for starters that getting to know that you are afflicted with a terminal disease is not something any of us want to know but we do not chose our lives, it is destiny but what we can chose however is whether we breakdown in self pity and miss the days that we have in life or do we go out there are live each and every moment as if it is a lifetime. Remember it is not how long that we live that makes it special, It is how we live which makes life meaningful. It is indeed a good step on your part to use your fame to bring attention to this disease, see it as a role that the almighty has written for you knowing that you would grow up to be such a powerful actress. I will pray for you but remember not to forget how to live life.. 🙂
You are in my prayers
Lisa!
Big words are for larger things … this one you shall take in your stride … and come out unscathed … and that is why we love you …
😡
Lisa – My GF had similar complications but she fought and all right today. Have your faith in God.
Hi Lisa,
Hope this helps:

I’ll dig more and provide you with more information.
God bless,
Dhaval
Shocked to hear the news but am glad to see ur sense of humor. I am sure you can beat multiple whatever into remission.
My prayers are with you.
Hi Lisa:
Read about this at rediff and found a link to your blog.
I hope that you will not be offended. But, out of deep concern for your eternal welfare and healing, I want to tell you that Jesus loves you.
Could you please consider taking it to Him in prayer?
I also recommend to you:
http://www.ibethel.org/churchlife/?page=153
It is out of the way, but would you please think about it?
Lisa,
We have loved u since ”Afreen” and we are all with you.
Chinese herbs and Yoga have done wonders…
have faith , everything will fall in place.
love you
All the best Lisa….May god be with you…
Lisa,
I know you are reading the comments as well. Good that you are doing your routine stuff like yoga et al. I would like to suggest you to do Pranayama. It is a very powerful breathing technique and I have seen people with frightening diseases getting cured because of it.
I am confident of your recovery and with the bravery with which you are fighting it, it will win. Its a war and you should concentrate all of your energies on fighting it. Doing Pranayama is one such important thing. There are many organizations/teachers in India who teach it and you should go for any of them.
Hi Lisa,
I feel wierd to write this but i just believe that one should be enlightened at the time of need. i Hope u dont ignore this msg and do read!
Well im sure u do Yoga n stuff..which at no stage u shall quit! Our body is always a repflection of our mind. And our mind is formed by the nature of our thoughts.. Nothing in this is world is impossible, hence no desease is incurable-which is now a word relative to time. At one point Breast Cancer was incurable, Leaukedema: however u spell it was incurable but no more! I am not a scientist but a true spiritual believer. Ill give u a small eg like Hair fall- which is caused when a person takes too much stress..most cancers i.e. tumors that are formed in our body are a result of a problem that has been outstanding in our life, from which we havent been able to detach ourself! the problem is not the problem but the way we deak with it is the problem. Similarly there is a problem in your mind which as been botheering you, either consciously, or subconsciously(worse) The problem which sub-conscious fear is that we dont deal with the emotions emitted inside our body results in the form of-in your case- the problem with ur bone marrow. Hence to find out the problem you need to meditate and find out your mental psyche. I am not a yogi either.. am a 23 yr old buisness woman who feels for the world, hence wanted to write. We dont need to give up normal life in order to be Enlightened…and yet at the same time we need to negate our bad karmas which can be overwritten with our will and PURELY enligtnement. Best of luck Lisa.
Hi Lisa,
As a true fan (you are so absolutely stunning in the Afreen Afreen video), it was quite a shock to hear this. But after reading your blog, I salute your amazing attitude, determination & courage…and your positive approach to handling this.
Life has a strange way on springing challenges when you least expect it. But, if there are downs today, there will definitely be ups tomorrow. So hang in there and fight it. You will definitely get through this.
May God bless you with a speedy recovery.
Lisa,
Just when I was explaining who you were to my little daughter (your Garden ads are back and she wanted to know who this beautiful didi was!), I had to read this news..Well, God does not load a branch which is not strong..And He will give you the strength to overcome this..A zillion prayers are with you this minute.
I live in Delhi and right now I see my little child opening the refrigerator door and the light shining on her- in the dark room down the corridor.And as surely as I see that, I see God’s light (love) shining on you right now, because you have opened your door to Him.
Take Care.
Peace,
Hari
Wish U get Well Soon.
Ur blogs show ur strength of mind , which is highly appreciable.
All these are passing phases of life.
To quote Buddha: “The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly”
All the best.
It’s very surreal. I remember as a college youngster ogling at your Bombay Dyeing adverts or the Gladrags cover, I had even hidden it in my antic away from the gaze of my mom as she would not approve of by pubescent taste. At that time, to a young lad, Lisa Ray was desire personified, what would not I have given to merely have an opportunity to gaze in your eyes, the wondrously charming light grey (correct me if I am wrong). Alas! that was not to be. The fantasy of a young mind.
Over the years, things changed, tastes changed, my hormones stabilised. Got married, have a kid now. Yet, like the freshness first love, the first crush remained. The heart still silently sighs when it thinks of Lisa Ray, with a towel wrapped around her.
And today on reading the news, my heart sunk. Felt a strange stirring when I read your post. I admire your bravado, sounding positive and trying to lead on with life, as if it is just another consequence of living. I won’t demean you or insult you by sympathising or pitying. Just hope and wish that you are able to beat the ever so tiny demon inside you..
But, believe me there is a strange karmic twist, I feel that when nature is overtly generous with beauty, it is also a wee bit more ruthless with it. There is a price one has to pay for nature’s bounty. As a bright velvety lilac that gets plucked in the bloom merely because of its charm. Beauty in this nature is accursed.
I sincerely hope that you are not. And wish a day, when I spot you on television all grey and wrinkled, would tell my son, or probably his son; look again at that old hag there, quite a few moons back, she could ignite a fire in any young mind, merely by draping a towel and looking straight in the eyes. And then I will sigh again..
So fight on lady, for your health and well being, but also for the millions of sigh that you create almost every day..Take care and wish you all the very best..
Your positive attitude and resilience in the face of such great odds are extremely commendable and heart-warming. Here’s wishing you the best that life has to offer you. And, please keep us updated on your treatment (as if I really needed to say that!)
That’s the attitude!
Best wishes.
Believe in God and nothing is impossible. This may just pass as a Black Cloud (Which I sincerely wish). You will get soon and will keep setting the screen on fire.
Our prayers would be always there.
Hi Lisa, read about your disease today only. I just want to say that it can be cured by pranayam. please go for it and I’m sure you would get a long life with a lively acting career. Please, please approach to Baba Ramdeo’s yoga practises.
Regards
Sheokesh
hi Lisa,
Keep up the good spirits and cheerfulness.
That is what takes one forward in life.
when some one told me that there is a reason for everything that happens in the world, i did not believe it. Only a few days back i saw your garden vareli advertisement in tv and was so happy to see you after such a long time. And within couple of days i have to read about your illness is strange…and more stranger thing is my mom fell to Multiple Myeloma couple of years back. Since then i have been donating to MMRF http://www.multiplemyeloma.org/, no break through yet but there are fewer cases i read there who are bravely battling and surviving this monster.
May god bless with you the courage needed !

Dear Lisa,
Please get well soon…I always admired you as an actress, but my respect for you has gone up a few notches after reading how positive you are on this matter. Keep fighting, my prayers are with you.
Best,

Lisa,
I am your ardent fan from Delhi. Very touching and courageous for you to accept the situation. May I suggest for you to do ‘Sudarshan Kriya’ everday.
They have got one ashram in Canada. Please do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! visit.
Take Care !!!!!!!

Dear Lisa,
How difficult it is to convey in a single “posted comment” how much I admire your strength and conviction. I have been an admirer of your work since “water”. Now not only do I respect your beauty and talent, but I also respect your strength and your honesty in the face your your diagnosis.
Though it may sound clique, (and God knows I am not a saint by any stretch of the word!) I am a true believer in prayer. Like your BFF – prayer provides that unconditional shoulder to cry on, or that sounding board for our fears and anger. It also provides us with that push to continue on.
With that said I want you to know that like thousands of other strangers in your life (AKA fans) you and your journey will be in my prayers each and every night. Prayers work, they really do Lisa 🙂 And with so many people on your side, well, you will succeed, no question.
I would like to help spread awareness of this Cancer and help raise funds, I will do my research and start.

The mother of the very talented Canadian jazz pianist and singer Diana Krall had multiple myeloma.
The Krall family has done much to raise funds for myeloma research and education in the memory of their mother, Adella Krall. Your goal to do what you can to draw attention to myeloma is most welcomed. Thank you!
Hi, Lisa !

Never give up in life .

Hey Lisa,
I am not giving up on the blue eyed lady so soon. Nothing would happen and I am sure God is not so greedy to call you so soon.
You have to entertain us for some more years. Would keep you in my prayers and I am sure you are a strong lady and have got good support.
Man has discovered cure for everything and I am sure he would not miss on this.
Btw missing your presence in a lot in the movies and remember your VJing days…

Hey Lisa.
I must say i got really disturbed after reading about your illness. However after reading your blog i am left speechless by the courage and strength you have even at this point of time. I am really proud of you and i know with this attitude of yours you are gonna defeat this illness in no time, Inshallah 🙂
My prayers and good wishes with you always. Take good care of yourself.
Hi Lisa,
I read about this on Rediff and found the link to your blog. Hope I’m not offending you.
I was really sad to read this. You are a wonderful actress. Though I don’t know you as a person, I do wish you a full and speedy recovery. Be strong.
I was speechless when i came to know bout it …
I donno … what to say …. Just hope god is not that cruel … I hope the medication works out 🙂
Hi Lisa:
It’s a sheer bad luck coz its very a rare disease and incurable.
My Grandpa suffered Multiple Myeloma at the age of 78, he used to be very healthy and fit until that happened.
Death is very painful in this case of cancer, i saw that with my own eyes, but can’t do anything even with advanced medical inventions.
But god is on your side now that you are diagnosed at very early age of 37. Your body can bear the treatment and respond to it.
I really hope and pray for the best.
Rgrds,
Sriram.
Ouchies! 😦 Hoping that you get well soon from the bottom of my fondest heart..
Hi Beautiful,
You’re my favourite most beautiful person in the world. Now I’ll add another title Most beautiful and brave person in the world. Really proud of you. Will pray that you remain positive and more importantly very happy.
Take care and All the best
Dear Lisa Ray,
It is painful to hear about your ailment. I am retired Army Colonel and seen many tragedies yet, to hear about your being under treatment for multiple myeloma has disturbed me. You are a good actress and good human being.
Have confidence in your will power and God. You will win this battle successfully.
I am now serving people by equipping and empowering them to save there lives from man made and natural disasters like Earthquake , Tsunami & Sea level rising, Cyclone, Flood, Drought & Water Management Climate change threats & Environmental Degradation, Fire, Terrorism ,Chemical, Biological and Nuclear hazards.as Director General of Sartisa Foundation.
It is worth mentioning that life in Mumbai as well as anywhere in India is insecure due to these threats of man made and natural disasters. Children, street children, women, disabled, aged and the poor in Mumbai are most vulnerable to these disasters and loose their innocent lives.
Mumbaikars are least sensitized to develop safety culture to save their lives and lives of their near and dear ones. Terrorist attack on Mumbai on 26 November 2008 and devastating floods of July 2005 have shown us that how important it is to prepare people to develop safety culture.
Towards this cause, Saritsa Foundation with its committed zeal, has prepared and build knowledge and developed culture of preparedness amongst 78,000 schoolchildren, women, disabled, poor, street children and children of sex workers to protect them from disasters in Mumbai and Maharashtra.
The participants groups for this mission include 2000 teachers of MCGM, 350 teachers of Pune Municipal Corporation and 250 teachers of Nashik Municipal Corporation Schools so far have been provided preparedness and capacity building knowledge and practical training to cope with disasters and
Impacts of climate change.
Nationally, Saritsa Foundation has prepared and built confidence amongst 162500 people including about 7200 disabled people in states of Maharashtra, Gujarat Rajasthan, Haryana, Delhi, Pondicherry, Chhattisgarh, Punjab, Himachal Predesh and Jammu and Kashmir Assam and Arunachal Pradesh since its birth on June 2000. 40 percent of these participants who have been prepared are women and girls and about 45 percent are school children.
It has conducted about 832 workshops for schools students and teachers, 200 workshops for youth, women and poor communities and 82 workshops for the disabled people. 84 community rescue teams (including police personnel of respective zones) have been prepared for coping with floods in flood prone wards of Mumbai in a period of about 9 years.
It has also conducted two innovative pioneering campaigns to educate and train poor and common people at grass root level to minimize risks from disasters and impacts of environmental degradation and climate change as under:-
• National Campaign from Ahmedabad Gujrat to Leh and Ladakhin Jammu & Kashmir to sensitize preparedness for disaster risk reduction and adaptation to climate change by a mobile team of experts, trainers and motivators during October and November 2007.This campaign covered remotest rural villages and towns of Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh with 5 other states making a total of 7 states.
• National Campaign from Kanyakumari, Tamilnadu to Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh to build capacity for disaster risk reduction and adaptation to climate change amongst most vulnerable communities across 12 states of India by a mobile team of experts and trainers and motivators during October to December 2008.
Preparing deprived and discriminated women and girls in distress to cope with disasters and to be trainers and motivators from rural and tribal areas of Maharashtra to reduce risks from Disasters and Climate Change. It also aims to integrate these with poverty eradication goals at grass root level. The project commenced in September 2008 and has been completed on 30 May 2009.Saritsa Foundation has also conducted a workshop for the children of the sex workers on the eve of women’s day on 8 March 2009 at Kharghar, Navi Mumbai.
In continuation of its mission Saritsa Foundation has now planned to launch a “Safer Schools, Safer Hospitals and Safer Mumbaikars” (Mumbai Risk Reduction initiative) Campaign.
I would like to meet you personally. Kindly let me know your E-mail and postal address including Contact Number.
Thanking you,
With warm regards and good wishes.
Your Sincerely,
Colonel N M Verma

Hi,
I am a rather silent admirer of yours, never gone overboard, but just seem to like you and have a second or third look wherever you appear in print.
You are really strong. I don’t think you need what I am going to tell you, but it can give you strength in some of those moments when you feel the life has not been fair to you for having forced this on a rather “junior” member of the species that we are.
Here it is – it’s in Hindi.
“Kya haar me kya jeet me
Kinchit nahi bhaybhit main
Sangharsh path par jo mile
Yah bhi sahi wah bhi sahi.”
I don’t remember the author’s name.
All the best in your struggle!

dear Lisa,
we love u toooooooo much to let u go………dont worry u will be alright ….get well soon.

::::You need more awareness about ur disease::::
Points to remember:
1. MM criticality determined by no. of stage. The less no. of stage you are on means the more chances of survival. Suppose if you are on 2nd stage then you have more chances of survival over the stage 3 person.
2. Yes, its treatment is difficult and painful but believe me if you have the strong will to live then you can easily pass through the treatment procedures.
3. Treatment procedure of cancer comes with some side effects but those side effects will easily gone with in days or months. Believe me!!!
4. Consult a good doctor (wherever in the world) and believe on their treatment.
5. Do not think that MM can win over you. There are n number of people who survived from this disease you just have to
(i) regularly visit doctor,
(ii) follow the medication properly and
(iii) maintain a positive feeling towards your life.
6. Age is a very judgemental factor. You are 37 and at this age patient has more immunity to survive.
7. The most important thing which you really need is Love and care from your beloved ones. You need ur Mother who can really care for u, pray for you and who can easily tell you that don’t worry you will overcome this trouble for me.
The points which i have listed is my own experience since my father is a Multiple Myeloma patient.
Hi Lisa.., i dont think this condition is incurable, Please try AYURVEDA as soon as possible. I fyou dont find any good hospitals in north india, consult somebody from KERALA, i think you will see +ve results immediately
Dear Lisa,
You are a strong girl. You will fight this. I am sure.
let science say whatever, Im place will power over everything.
🙂 Hugs
Dear Lisa
I just have read an online news about you and immediately checked your blog……I believe you are in Canada now. Plz talk or write to Laura De Giorgio (she must be also in Canada). She has wonderful ideas about life, love and well-being and is a hypnotherapist. I am sure if you read her or talk to her you will definitely find something that is very good …though I personally have not tried much to know about her….but I am keeping a compilation of her write-ups and these really help…

Its fantastic to see you healing the only way one should, all in your leggy stride.
Have you checked on stem-cell treatments if any??
Hi Lisa
Please check these links, its about a Dr Hulda Clark. She stands tall in the bracket of researchers like Dr Raymond Rife. Rife is know to be a famous reseachers who invented the cure for cancer in the early 20s. Would suggest to google and search about them on the net.
Dr Hulda Clark has written various books for cancer cure which mainline medical studies would not approve off:
http://educate-yourself.org/cn/huldaclarkbooks.shtml
Most of us are mostly led by the phrase “search for acceptance” instead for the “search for truth”
Hope this is of help, i feel it will surely help

Dear Lisa
Wow courage personified!!
Not so much of a movie fan lately but can never forget your face bcoz you are a different kind and that shows in your blog.
You will pull through.
With the attitude you have …need we say more?
Let the rest of the million fans do the praying but you your thing!!!
God bless
hey Lisa,
you are my favorite model since childhood. i would congratulate you for starting a blog. Please share your experiences with Cancer as many ppl need it.
I wish you a speedy recovery.
Believe in yourself…that i know you do..
lots of love,
Snehal
CMC Vellore—its not very glamorous place but very effective cos they get to see many many more types and varieties of cancer than normal hospitals in india would ever do and they have done an amazing job of dealing with them…try it liza and just a personal suggestion….if you can just find a good homeopath (not flashy big names but a genuine one residing in some remote village, if u want i could suggest some names) and continue this alternate medicine along with your chemo it can do wonders. I believe this works cos i have seen many many cases in my immediate friends….and ultimately its about the quality of life that you will live hence forth that makes the difference and not the length…excess of chemo can affect that aspect…u know it only too welll i guess…anyways all d best and take the bugger disease to its grave…..Take care….sunil
Hey Lisa,
Hope you read this message out of the many posted so far. Is it possible for you to get a hold of this book – You can heal your life by Louise L. Hay?
With so many things around you right now, if you can read this book, it will help you in many ways.
God’s grace and blessings be with you.

Hi Asreen,
Yes that was the first time I saw you when I was a teenager and I was so struck by your beauty. Well , today I felt very sad reading that the same person is diagnosed with Cancer. Well, good thing that it was detected early and you are feeling brave enough to fight it. I wish you best luck and pray to Almighty for the quick recovery. I advice you to keep ondoing Yoga and Baba Ramdeva’s Pranayama. You will surely be fine.
Best luck,
Vijay,

Hi Lisa
Wish you all the strength to win this battle too.

Hi Lisa,
I recently lost my only uncle to non hodkins lymphoma. He was a very dear person, and he was in his fourth and final stage when diagnosed with cancer. Doctors said that had he been diagnosed earlier, he had high chances of survival and leading a normal life again. You are lucky to start treatment this early 🙂 I know it takes a hell lot of courage and strong will to hold back your tears, like my uncle did. The only comfort is the hope of having our life back again. Good Luck!!
Many people will walk in and out of your life,
But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart
To handle yourself, use your head;
To handle others, use your heart.
Anger is only one letter short of danger.
If someone betrays you twice, it is your fault
Great minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.
He who loses money, loses much;
He who loses a friend, loses much more;

Beautiful old people are works of art.

Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift.
I wish u a full recovery and healthy life……….
Dear Ms. Ray,
if you make up your mind to fight and beat it – you are certain to win. Please look up the mistletoe extract for cancer – one of the Brand names is Iscador. Suzanne Sommers has been using and advocates Iscador in the battle against cancer. Please do look it up.
With sincere wishes and prayers for your long life, health and happiness

lisa,,, we love you…
I like the way you write, its been years since those garden vareli days.
Do you think it is too late to be follower specially in democratic world of internets?
Will wait for your next post…
Hey Lisa,
I am stunned to hear even a 37 year old can get Multiple Myeloma.In 2006 my father died of Multiple Myeloma at the age of 64.
Be brave, you are young. Pray god a lot. Take care of your bones.
When I see the names of Velcade,dexamethosone I get old memories of my father. Younger patients have a very good chance. I think you should also evaluate Stem Cell transplant with the advice of your doctors.
Best of luck
Raja
LIVE STRONG..

Dnt quit, no matter what
Ha! You’ve always been subversive with your choice of projects/films. This time you will prove science wrong and get rid of what ails you. Here’s to a strong person…cheers!
Hey Lisa,
It’s really brave of you to come out and openly talk about having MM.
I read a story in Reader’s Digest many years back about a woman’s battle against MM and how she managed to beat the odds.
I hope with all my heart that you are able to beat it too.
All the best!
We love you 🙂
Hi Lisa,
You may never know me but my fascination with you dates back to the days when I was a kid growing up in (south) India. In those days, I used to drag my dad to Bombay Dyeing showrooms for buying my clothes (including the school uniform), for the sole reason there would be semi-nude posters of you curling in a turkey towel or cotton sheets. 🙂
And I wasn’t even aware of your name, then!!
As I grew older, so did my admiration for everything that defines you. I am no movie buff but I could easily see you were not one of those typical prance-around-the-hero bollywood actressses. You were that rare enigmatic combination of beauty n brains, my dream girl! 🙂
I was devastated when I read the news but then I read your blog… You are the strongest woman I ever “came across”
Wish you all the very best as you fight this and I will be rooting and praying for you. The world needs more people like you.
Regards,
Indar

I’m so shocked and totally sad right now. It’s just that in the past few days I’ve really heard no good news and everyone around me seems to be getting sick. I want to give you some words of support and positivism just like everyone has but I don’t know how much this will help. All I can say is that I’ll be praying for you and thinking about you all the time. Stay calm and be around people who love you and everything will be fine.
Lots of love and a big huge hug for you…you’re absolutely beautiful!

Dear Ms. Ray, I applaud your courage and determination as you fight Multiple Myeloma. My mother had this rare disease (contracted/found out, when she was visiting us in Dallas, TX). I think doctors know lot more about this disease now and with your faith and courage, I am sure you will overcome. My prayers.
Hi lisa
Hace 10 minutos que he terminado de ver una película en la cual apareces y quede impactada con tu personalidad, aparte de tu gran belleza he de subrayar, y fue por ello que coloque tu nombre en un buscador y me encuentro con la noticia; la que me llevo a tu diario amarillo, el cual he intentado descifrar, he de confesar no entiendo del todo el ingles (creo que es notorio ¿no?), me parece extraordinario que compartas con tu “gente” todos los sentimientos que han manado gracias a esta prueba que se te presenta, la forma en que manejas la situación me parece monumental, de una persona valiente y con mucha convicción respecto a su vida, en lo particular hoy aprendí una lección gracias a ti; se me ha caído la venda de los ojos y por fin he comprendido que solo uno es dueño de sus sueños y anhelos, nada ni nadie hará que paren.
Gracias por ser valiente, y por compartir momentos tan íntimos de tu vida, este tipo de situaciones nos aviva para dejar de estar dormidos mientras estamos despiertos.
De todo corazón te mando los mejores deseos y bendiciones.
Hasta pronto 🙂
Best of luck Lisa. I am sure you will come out of this…stronger.
Good luck and God bless!
Lisa,
I hope this message reaches you to take a drastic action to regain your health.
Though I am not a fan follower, I wanted to stop and give you a number to reach out to a doctor who is Auyervedic and has cured the same disease for many people who have been given days to live by eminent doctors in India.
Please reach out to him ASAP. I am sure you will glow again.
Dr.Parvateesam -08816-283583. He is in a little village near Bhimavaram , Andhra Pradesh. If his phone is not reachable in the morning hrs try after 9:30PM.
Wish you the best the world has to offer.

I am speechless….! May god give you the courage and strength.
Love and Prayers,

Pls keep us udpated of ur recent news, you’re part of our lives.
I am sure the dirty realist in your will prevail. You will surely achieve full remission. I always keep saying half of the source as well as cure of any disease is in our mind. And you seem to have a beautiful and perfectly balanced mind. So, that’s half the battle won. We all love you. I am sure we will see you blogging about more films for many many more years to come. God bless you.
Hey Liza,
Happy to know that you’re facing the same with chunks of courage!! I appreciate that…
Trust me, for me its a bit painful to know the facts, as I used to see me in you.. I loved your Tala.. You were awesome out there… And in beautym you have no comparison mother earth. You’re blessed with the all of it..
Well, I wish you all the very best to overcome it asap.
Love,
Neena
I love you like no other. I am praying for your full recovery,
your positive attitude will chase the myeloma away, Insha Allah and Ameen. You have incredible strength with such
peerless beauty of body and soul. I have taken the liberty

I read the news about your illness (multiple myloma)
It was sad to know this.
My father also suffered from the same disease.
There is a hospital in UK near London or in Surrey , where one of my father’s friend also suffering from the same disease got treated of complete blood transfusion which enhanced his life by 10 years.
So maybe this can be of some use to you.
All the best.
Thanks and regards,

In case you need any further information on the same, i can find out the exact information as per what you want.

Dear Lisa
Any disease can be beaten. There are plenty of alternative therapies on the market. But at a minimum you should
cut down on all carbo food (which turn into sugar and feed the cancer) such as bread, rice, wheat, confectinary, sugar, drinks, cookes, etc.
Mainly consume on vegetable diet. Do not consume old, processed, refrigerated, chemical laden stale food. Cook food fresh and eat immediately (the indian way). Of course organic is better if you have the money. (fresh normally means eaten the same day, not kept ovenight)
All these will at least remove the toxins from your body and help the healing process. Fasting is of great help too. (do with supervision).
Remember nothing is impossible. Best of luck. Please surf there are many herbs that can inhibit if not remove the cancer virus. Do not give up.

Prabhakar, keep your idiocy out of this place.
Lisa, we love you. Take care!
You will overcome this. Great to know about your confidence and positive attitude. Life is like that. Smile and the world will follow you.
Dear Lisa
It is a life lesson in disguise. And going by your blog you are handling it with the best weapon in a human being’s arsenal – humour. My mother beat breast cancer with grace, humour and guts. Here’s hoping, wishing and praying that you do too.
Lots of love

— It is no less than a divine scandal that you are afflicted with this dreadful thing. I send my curse to the powers that be, above or beneath. I also pray that you get well.
As a journalist I never met you but somewhere there was always admiration for you, Lisa. Hope you get better and better everyday. Its our mind that creates our world so let it work positively on you. I believe in Miracles…experienced them myself and I’m sure Faith will bring in Miracles for you too. Love… Pammi
i am so taken aback LIZ U SO RULE our mind ,,,,the best face of indian showbiz ….Fight it ,,,,,we need u.
love.
Visit to Patanjali Yogpith at Haridwar, Uttaranchal, INDIA. This is run by spiritual and yoga guru Swami Ramdeo. He claims that by Yoga one can get rid of cancer. I think in that respect he has recently delivered one speech at “M D Anderson Cancer Center – Houston”. You can check it on internet.
hi lisa,
I am a telugu actor , my name is saikirann. I have read this news and want to tell you that if u do pranayama, daily in the morning and evening for half an hour each, you will see unbelievable improvement, my aunt had this same state and doctors said 2 months, now she is living happily from 5 years because of pranayama, but get it done from a proper guru, someone like ramdev… then it will be beneficial. So stop worrying and hit the cancer back, its time we punched it back too 🙂
regards,
god bless
Sai
Hey Lisa,
I have been a fan of urs not coz just of ur acting/looks/charm/sexiness .. but because you give the impression of a person who is trying to do justice to what u r doing (acting) unlike many female actors who just start getting offers bcoz of their bodies and somewhere down the years start to learn acting. For me , u r the perfect combination of looks and brains(As wikipedia has it :”She excelled academically, doing five years of high school in four, while attending three different high schools” 🙂 .
This “thing” (cancer),I hope will provide u with a cause to “shine on”. By the way, have you read “It’s Not About the Bike” ?
Hi Lisa,
Vidyut….don’t have too many words to write….n hope that you do get this….
HI Lisa..
When i interviewed you many years ago through Sunil Sahjwani at Gallops… after you had done BPL Oye… you created a story about were kidnapped by Gypsies from somewhere and how your parents found you…
Really hope this story true like that..
But then if it is… you need to stand up and fight…
use every possible sane advice u get… There can be a Ray of hope!
I sincerely wish you all the best in your fight. There is nothing much I can add that is any different from what your other friends/well-wishers have added…apart from the fact that my mother is a dual cancer survivor and I can hazard a guess as to what you are going through physically and emotionally, having seen my mom go through the same.
I must take this opportunity to laud you for what you are attempting through this blog – increasing awareness about cancer and Multiple Myeloma apart from of course sharing a bit of your personal battle and thoughts with the world.
Keep fighting and keep your spirits up. You shall overcome
🙂
Sincerely,
Deb
i appreciate the solid way you are facing the situation. well before you decide on the line of treatment i would through my experience recomend two things which i am sure would be considered by you.
1. Take a second opinion regrding your case.
2. Incase proven again (which i pray should not happen) consider the option of other ways of treatment like homeopathy or ayurveda, in which there are effective treatments for any form of disorders of human body. Here in kerala i understand that lot of people have been treated effectively for such kind of body disorders.
Well the allopathic way of treating a disorder like yours is by toxically killing the fast growing cells in the body which inturn could affect the various other fast growing essential cells in or body. This could weaken the natural resistance of the human body making us susceptable to other diseases to the likes of nuemonia. whereas the treatments mentioned aim at removing these fast growing cells without disturbing the essential fast growing cells in our body.
Hope God gives you a state of mind where you take a wise decision.
Hi Lisa,
I got really disturbed after reading about your illness. Pray, it is best cure for everything. I hope Allah is with you always. Dont worry everything will alright soon.
Regards,
Afzaal
Dearest Lisa,
I fell in love with you since I saw you first in the Bombay Dyeing ads many many years ago. (Please don’t tell my wife) 😉
I have been following you on screen since then and watch all your movies numerous times and keeping up with all the gossip about you. 🙂
I am shocked to hear about this and wish you well with all my heart. May you get well soon and give me (and us) many many more years of looking at you kid….
Love & Kisses,

You are beautiful. Sublimely beautiful. And you will remain so in all our hearts, myeloma or no myeloma. We all love you.

I watched your movie Hollywood/Bollywood when I was living in Toronto and for some reason that movie became a special favourite of me and my then roomate. We had fun saying some of the lines from it for days afterwards and laughing hysterically.
When I read the news, I burst into tears. When I composed myself, I realised crying and feeling sorry for you is neither respectful nor necessary.
I am sending you positive thoughts, I am praying for you. You WILL beat this. Smile. We are with you through this journey.
Hi Lisa,
My prayers are with you at this hour. Don’t lose heart. Just pray to your favorite God and be happy always. I will also pray for you. Sriram from Chennai
lisa dont worry..
belive in lord jesus.
your disease will cure..
in our church i have seen lot of people has been cured by this type of disease..
even aids candidates are also cured.
dont worry. i hope you will pray to the lord jesus.
read bible.
good luck

Hi Ray,
they say we are developing, developed and all that stuff…why the bloody is this menace of Cancer is still a problem for our so called ‘ life-saving Doctors and research scientists ? Cant they find one good drug or way of treatment for this Medical condition called Cancer.
Many people are suffering, suffered and going to suffer and our Medical Industry thrives on Pharma that supplies useless drugs that only makes them richer day by day.
LISA as you know VITAL POWER is a great thing, unexplainable and unseen by anyone but exists for sure..
HE can give that POWER to YOU and the POWER TO HEAL YOURSELF.
IAM A PERSON PRONE to anything like all and you,SO SINCERELY I WANT TO SEE YOU COME BACK HEALTHY.
DONT FIGHT AGAINST ANYTHING , BE MORE POWERFUL WITH FAITH , YOU ARE STARTING A NEW LIFE , WHERE YOUR STRENGTH IS ALLMIGHTY…. YOUR DEVOTION TO HIM WILL TAKE YOU BACK TO HEALTHY LIFE…….
LIFE IS MUCH MORE THAN WE CAN EVEN IMAGINE AND THE SCOPE IS INCREDIBLE and INFINITE……. I KNOW BY EXPERIENCE ….. TRUST US HAVE A NICE DAY AND NIGHT!!!!! I WILL STAY IN TOUCH HERE…… TAKE CARE
Hi Lisa,
Just read bt the news that you have a problem. Rather than thinking of it as a disease just think of it as a problem and every problem can be solved. The Body is so miraculous that it can heal itself if one follows medication along with the law of nature. I suggest you supplement your treatment by learning REIKI from a good master. Search for Rosita Tanza on the net and send her a mail to attune you. She is a very powerful channel and i have personally experienced her powerful attunements. You can also mention my name( Savio Rodrigues)to her. I wish you a very speedy solution to your problem 🙂 You can also mail me at saviotr@gmail.com in case you need some more information.
who said multiple myleoma is incurable i have been in research of cancer with homoeopathic medications and i have seen cases get cure i would love to take your case cure it and prove a point to the world that your case is curable doing so making homoeopathic treatment a unique treatment its up to you but remember you said it and i say it theres no treatment in allopathic medications but i even say theres treatment for it in homoeopathic medications eagerly awaiting your case
Dear Lisa,
i was totally in a shock when i heard abt it, but check ur website & confirmed, but the most important was ur attitude gave me a paradigm shift in thinking, to embrace the fact and be excited about the new day and ur influence has made a difference in another person’s life.
Lots of Lov,

Hi Lisa,
We all are with you in your fight against the Cancer. I have had very close encounter with a rare form of Cancer called Sarcoma.
From my experience I know that it helps to be in touch with other survivors and patients. I am suggesting certain blogs by people fighting cancer. Hopefully you can communicate with them:
1. http://www.livestrong.org/ – Lance Armstrong
2. http://www.cardblueblog.com/ – A Sarcoma fighter
You can also check out an alternative treatment and research option at:
http://www.drrathresearch.org/lab_research/cancer.html
Dear Lisa,
You know what, I have endless faith in God and my heart tells me that you will overcome this problem. I know,the journey ahead is not going to be easy, but I want you to know that I will be praying for you every single day and until the day that I get to know that you are completely well. I admire you and your work.. I admire your attitude and just want to say that keep the faith. Everything will be fine. It has to be fine. I want to see hundreds of your movies and watch you even when I grow old. I have great faith in Lord Rama and would like to suggest you two things. Firstly, please chant the mantra JAI SHRI RAM every day. It is said in the Ramayana that this mantra has the power to overcome any problem that a human being faces in Kalyuga. Secondly, get the Mahamrityunjaya Jaap done through a proper priest who is very good in mantras. I believe in destiny, but also believe that by doing certain pujas and remedies, we can overcome certain things in life. Your Will power would of course be the most important thing. Takecare and get well soon.
Love and wishes,
Amit
Dear Lisa,

Why searching elsewhere when you can get the solution in our vedic country.

Hi Lisa,
I’m not sure you’ll have the chance and time to read my message but if you do, I want let you know about your condition…by the way I’m a software professional from Hyderabad,India-settling from US and not associated in anyway with this medicine/scientist.
I came to know about the cure for cancer from real patients about a clinic in MUMBAI by Scientist MUNEER KHAN..I think it is worth a try not only by his ADS but I met few people and relatives who claimed it worked for them…
I request you to give it a try as it does NOT have any Side effects. Medicine Bottle is around RS: 15K and you may need to try 3-4 of them.

itzz very shockin to hear dat ur suffering from cancer , juss now i saw it in yahoo home page
u r a good actress , i lyk u in takkari donga(telugu ) the only telugu film u had done , u been my fav actress frm that film
as we know newton’s law ” for every action there is an opposite and equvalent reaction” and for every disease there will be remedy
as a fan i wanna to give u a small suggestion try homeopathy , most of the cancer or any type disease can be cured through homeopathy , once consult any good homeopathy doctor
i pray god to kill that cancer and bring back the smiley Lisa Ray
Lisa,
Thank you for sharing this information with us. You are truly a strong and courageous woman
We will be praying for your full recovery
Hi Lisa,
Read about your ailment on AOL…. shocking….
Have been an ardent fan of yours ever since the 1st Bombay Dyeing shoot of yours…
All my wishes go out for you. You will beat this I am sure…
God Bless you…
Best wishes in your fight Ms.Ray.
It’s very brave of you to start sharing your intensely personal and difficult journey with others through this blog. As you say, this might be cathartic and helpful. There are a large number of patient bloggers who will agree that blogging about their medical issues has been good for them personally.
May I suggest that you turn on comment moderation in your WordPress settings. Specifically to weed out the purveyors of complementary & alternative medicine like the seedy character above.
Ha. Just found out that you do indeed have comment moderation activated 🙂
Wondering why you let those idiotic comments through!!
I’m a radiologist and have been part of the medical blogosphere (aka medblogosphere) for nearly four years. CAM (comp & alt medicine) is one thing that most medical professionals cannot stand.
Dear Lisa,
My very best wishes to you….
You are beautiful and it is a pleasure to watch you, I remember the Evita Soap ad you did in 90’s, being a student and quite poor, I still made it a point to go to that shop to buy tiny knick knacks just to see your poster..wasn’t it a white swimsuit….?
Keep your chin up….

Oh…woah.

Dear friend,
I think you must focus on two things:
1. Recovering the loss that has already been to you.
2. Avoid further losses.
I am purely a noob to this disease. But, as I experienced, relying on allopathy has immense side effects. But, if there is no other option, of course one has to bear with it. I would say, firstly keep youself fit by eating healthy. Secondly, explore some naturopathic or homeopathic ways to deal with this. And finally, firmly start on with “yoga”, do believe in it, and patiently wait for the results to come.
I know its tough call for you, but your firmness and never say die attitude shall definitely over power this evil.
My best wishes and prayers for you! Don’t worry be happy!
Lisa,
I just found out about this a few moments ago and for some reason i can’t seem to smile anymore. I can’t imagine what it must be like; But i know that with that amount of courage, joy, passion, love and laughter you have within you is all the strength you need (or even more) to overcome the fear and adversity that might come in your way.
I know that you’ve always wanted to write someday, and i’m (so very truly) glad i didn’t have to wait any longer to witness your journalistic talent. I’m really overwhelmed, your style and choice of words are so enjoyable and beautiful.

hi Lisa,
The way you are taking it, is so much full of strength…….I appriciate it…….that you are going to give it a fight……..Lisa I wanted to share with you a small passage that I read in a book….Tao of Physics……by Fritzof capra.
“Quantum physics has demolished the classical concepts of solid objects and of strictly deterministic laws of nature. At the sub atomic level, the solid material objects of classical physics dissolve into wavelike patterns of probabilities and these patterns, ultimately, do not represent probabilities of things, but rather probabilities of interconnections. A careful analysis of process of observation in atomic physics has shown that sub-atomic particles have no meaning as isolated entities but can only be understood as interconnections between preparation of experiment and subsequent measurement. Quantum theory thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe.”
Lisa…..the western scientists have only now started understanding what Eastern civilisations have understood long back. I request you to spend some time if possible looking into Yogic & Ayurvedic ways of cure too. Please………(with tons of sugar on please).
Will be praying for you…….All the time.
PS…..If you can find time please read the book.

Hey Lisa,
Stay cool. Stay strong. We are gonna watch you successfully beat the *$#@ out of myeloma.
Jaison
Dear Lisa,
My dad, now 73, was diagonised with Myeloma 3 years ago, after undergoing Bone Marrow Test, but no treatment was started because the percentage of bad cells was only 8%. Treatment was to start the moment it crossed 10%. Thereafter he underwent BMT every 6 months, but the percentage kept coming down and after the last BMT the doctor gave a puzzled look and said the myeloma is gone.
The secret was YOGA (which I have been practising every day without fail for the last 20 years). I made my dad do some simple yogasanas every day after the first diagnosis and he still does them and claims he has never felt better in his life.
Kindly contact me on my email – rabindranco@vsnl.net
I am sure I will be able to help you.
With regards and best wishes,
Rabindran,

Dear Lisa,
As your fan, I fell in Love with you after watching you in the Bombay Dyeing Ad’s.
I wish you a full and speedy recovery.
May God bless you with inner strength, will power and peace.
I’m certain that you will comprehensively defeat cancer as you are stronger than Lance Armstrong.
If he could, you certainly will.
And your fans will await your return with a bang on the Silver Screen.
You are not alone Lisa, your fans are with you.
Get well soon Lisa, we Love you and can never lose you.
-One of your countless fans.
Dear Lisa
I dont know much about you but you are a fine person. Here’s a friendly advise : Please get in touch with one of the Forum Leaders of Landmark Education wherever you are. He/She can help you to deal with your condition and there is a possibility that you may come out of it. You may wonder what this is all about but I have seen magic happening while attending one of the Forums. I am just a well wisher. Pls take this very very seriously.
Good Luck !!!!
Had the pleasure of meeting you in Atlanta for a show-Dreamgirls? Rahul Khanna is a good friend. Found you to be a super compere, and a lovely person.
I’m a journalist and also a Pranic healer. Please try Pranic healing. It will really help
Dear Lisa,
If you want to cure your disease then only NATUROPATHY can cure it. For this you have to take TULASI, BILWA(BEL PATA), GULUCHI(GILOYE)Juice daily atleast 4 to 5 glass. First glass of juice you take in the morning in empty stomach, then remain 4 glass of juice u take with every 3 hours gap. You have to leave oily items, salted items, and sugar items. Your food should be vegetable boil with haladi. Take neem pata juice every day at least one glass. Change your lifestlye to naturopathy. Because only naturopathy can cure any type of disease in the world. You have to take this juice till your disease cure. Minimum 6 months time.

Dear Lisa, I’m writing your from Italy.
I have not medical suggestions for you.
I have not reassuring words for you like “ok, be sure everything will be fine!”
I have not to say you “I know what you are in” cause only you can know.
But I want to send you my feelings for you.
I’m sad I simply just tell you my heart is near yours.
I’m Christian. I will pray my God with all my faith and I know this is the better thing I can do for you. It is.
You don’t know, but you gave me such a strength to live my life with your movies (The world unknow / I can’t think straight) that now I hope a little of this strength will arrive to you from me.
You’re in my thoughts everyday.
you’re italian friend

Dear Lisa,
I am very sorry to hear about this. Just remember always
“You are the SUN,
not the moon, nor the clouds,
No matter what the weather is,

You should try meditation for an hour everyday and see if that helps you.
Be Good else be careful. Hope u get well soon.
Cheers

Yoga has Cured Cancer
Lisa, there is not time to dwell and brood on what has already happened. We must think of possible cures.
Cancer can be cured through Yoga, especially pranayama. There are hundreds of people in India that have been cured of cancer, at the most advanced stages. Please go to Haridwar and join a camp held at the Patanjali Yog Kendra run by Swami Ramdev Baba.
Or you can try pranayama from any yogic expert in Haridwar. Pranayama has cured many fatal diseases including cancer. This is not to disregard the efficacy of modern medicine. Surgeries, emergency care, and diagnosis are impossible without modern medicine. But at the same time we cannot ignore ayurveda that is 5000 years old.
Ayurveda works best in case of diseases like cancer, diabetes, and blood pressure. Trust me, I have seen people come and testify about their victory over cancer. I am 42 and have been cured of many ailments by pranayama.
Lisa, you are young and have a full life ahead of you. You will LIVE to ripe old age.
Email if you have any additional questions. ckpatro@yahoo.co.in

Well certainly like every one said it is SAD. I mean i didn’t know about this website till now. And i read about the CANCER what the HELL. Why you LISA? Why is life so unfair to most amazing ppl. Ppl who have never caused any harm to any one ppl who have always been down to earth. I believe may be GOD loves them more and wants them to be with him. I can imagine what you might be going through firstly your mom (sorry to hear about it) and now your treatment. It is cerrtainly not right. I am honestly out of words. The first time i am writing on a website and it is terrible. I will honestly pray for your good health. And i am sure you will recover but please keep on trying till the last moment.
You are one of the really few women i admire alot in my life. PERFECT DIVA. I mean do you lack in any thing? I mean looks smile, figure height, style… really ANY THING DUDE…!!! You are a master piece LISA. I wanted to flirt with you. But i guess i will some other time :). Sitting with you, dating you would be like a dream come true. I used to go on google and type “lisa ray boyfriend” to see who is the lucky guy u are dating and all. hahaaa…. GOSH..!!! Any way Lisa i hope you have a really long and a healthy life. And yea i wont let go of you. I will keep on posting on your BLOGS.
You are the best and the most gorgeous woman in this world. GOOD LUCK with your treatment.
and yes thank you soo much for these blogs feel really close to you now. I feel really honoured. It is unbelieveable. I really hope i would have commented on your blog in a better situation… i am actually sad and angry… bye
Dear Ms Ray
I have always cherished your work on screen. You are simply astonishing. You are a strong person and i pray to the almighty that you are cured ASAP. This is just a bad patch in life.
With lots of luv and tonnes of best wishes

lisa ray i have mm. was diagnosed with it in 2003. my oncology team at mass general harvards teaching school gave me what was at the time a protocol that was outside the box. now it is the recommended protocol. they gave me a better protocal than world famous dana farber here in boston. i strongly urge you to contact me and ill give you the name of these life saving g-d sends at mgh. im 5 years since diagnoses and still going strong. these doctors will give you the best chance at staying alive and they are great people. i suffered like hell with this damn disease,but it can be fought, and you must have the best oncologists fighting with you.contact me and ill give you the information. You have to make these tough decisions about treatment for yourself and im giving you the team that is the best in the world. also i can give you tips on how to handle some of the aweful side affects from the disease and/or treatment. pleae realize mgh is one of the best hospitals on the planet.
IF YOU SAID YOU ARE GONNA TRY ANYTHING THAT MAY TAKE YOU THRU THIS DIFFICULT SITUATION, THIS IS UNARGUABLY THE STRONGEST AS FAR AS MY EXPERIENCE GOES, DO NOT
TAKE IT FOR GRANTED, PLEASE USE IT AND WIN UR MOST IMPORTANT BATTLE. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE WHAT I AM SAYING BY ANY CHANCE AND SEE FOR YOURSELF AFTER GIVING IT A GENUINE CHANCE, DONT JUDGE IT BY OTHERS COMMENTS OR YOUR EXPERIENCE, SAY IN FEW TRIALS. ITS LIKE THE MOST PRECIOUS GIFT ANYONE COULD EVER GIVE YOU, MORE THAN YOUR LIFE.
Dear Lisa (VERY VERY IMPORTANT, if u are thinking of getting better and maybe survive thru),
My name is Dr. Pradeep M and I have given my mail adress too. I am a young doctor from India now in Australia. The treatment I might suggest to you should be tried as an adjunct to what you are already using. If i am a medical person and am still suggesting this you can estimate that i am definitely not superstitious.
There is one type of meditation called SAHAJA YOGA started by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi who is 85 years old now and still continuing the beautiful work she once started. There is this healing centre called Vaashi in Maharastra, India where some cases of cancer have also been cured. This meditation technique requires dedication and belief, overall a true desire to meditate and seek. This may be a very important phase in your life which is actually guiding into your spiritual seeking. Healing a disease is just a side-effect but the real benefit is unimaginably high. There are definitely sahaja yoga centers in Canada if you can find out, where you might get better information. There are thousands of centers in over 60 countries till date. Sahaja yoga is not like an exercise we see on TV. It is free and very very powerful. It has no difference between rich and poor or religions or status. You have to go as a seeker with a sincere desire to meditate and see what happens. It IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD, THE PUREST, THE POWERFULLEST THING AND THERE CANNOT BE ANY COMPARISION. There is no other thing as equal to it. This you will tell me yourself if you are a Sahaja Yogi for a considerable time from now and after all those experiences that are going to drive you to believe whatever I am saying. I am not a fanatic, neither a religious person nor belong to any group of interest, neither does Sahaja Yoga. It is for all those people who deserve it. If you dont have the desire, there is nothing much I can do, so give it a sincere and hard try which can only do it for you.
I have been doing it since one year now but have the deepest of the desires so know more and have experienced more. There are millions in the world doing Sahaj but they are all on different levels. If you need help, I can personally help you. Just mail me your phone number, ill then give you mine and we can personally discuss if you need help and for however long. For info on the technique go to the nearest center in Canada or India. Go to Vaashi as and when suggested by them and as soon as u can( coz u also have to continue your treatment proper until when u are really ready). I can help you clear any and many doubts you may have while starting to meditate and when you are deep thru too. You can make a miracle happen thru your pure desire, strong faith in Shri Mataji and sincere meditation. I and many Sahaja Yogis who are deeply into Sahaj can do as much as we can to help you meditate. The rest you leave to the Divine and sometimes miracles are just ordinary things. WHO WOULD JUST WANT MORE THAN YOU, NOT TO MOCK AT WHAT I AM SAYING BUT DEFINITELY TRY AND WIN, best of luck. I am waiting for your mail if you are looking to any discussion from me. I can make myself available on mail or phone whichever is suitable for you, with the pure intention to maybe see you out of the difficult situation that seems to be.
Medically green tea and some other plant products have a lot of anti-cancerous properties, so ask your personal doctor and go for them as many times per day, every thing counts Lisa and I wish you ALL THE VERY BEST.
Multiple Myeloma can be tackled. Lotsa things can be done. I know this because my father went through it. Also keep track of the heart. Stem cell transplant can also be done.
stay strong, lisa. you can beat this thing!! please keep your chin up…
You have already shown how brave you are by sharing this with all of us.
Everybody is here to support you.
Get Well soon
Be brave and fight it. I know its easier to advise.
All the best to you, Njoy life. We, your fans are always there by your side. Think about us whn u go through tough times.
Our prayers are always with you, dear.
Take care

Hi Liza,
You are my all-time favorite model and I consider you one of the most beautiful faces of all time in the modelling world at least in India. The news came as a shock.
Crises perhaps show what we are made of…..show em all…..you’ll surely triumph.
Best wishes and regards,
lisa ray please be aware that the sooner the disease is treated the better chance you have for achieving remission. i am in remission. they are at a place where many with mm can live with the disease similiar to say diabetes.although there is no cure yet the doctors have gotten to the point where one can live a relatively normal life for a long time.due to recent great advances made you have a very good chance of achieving remission and being able to live a normal life. be grateful you have gotten this disease at a time where so many advances are/have been achieved in treating mm.be grateful that so many doctprs and scientists have devoted their life and energy to studying this disease and are having such wonderfull success.we all owe a huge debt to those square kids in high school who won the science awards and the geeks who spent their time with test tubes.
Hello, I am a Korean fan of yours.
I’m very sorry to hear that you aren’t feeling so well.
I don’t know what to say..
But I know that you are optimistic person.
So.. I believe that you will endure everything.
Don’t give up. Be strong.
Although I am far away from you, I will pray for you
that every day would be a happy day for you.
Wishing you a speedy recovery!
I don’t even know what to write in such a situation. Should I say comforting words or well should I say that I am actually in awe of your courage. I respect that a lot and hope and pray that the cancer will get cured.
PS: you are one of my favorite actresses. I loved hollywood/bollywood.
Dear Lisa,
Ancient indian texts suggest cure of any type of cancer with amaroli or auto urine therapy. Amaroli must be learned from a qualified teacher who has thorough knowledge of the practice. Please follow the link for details….. ……
http://www.yogamag. net/archives/ 1981/ajan81/ amar.shtml
YOU ARE GOING TO BE ANOTHER ONE OF THE SUCCESS STORIES LISA! YOU AINT GOING ANYWHERE! LUVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV UU 🙂
http://www.yogamag.net/cgi-bin/search/search.pl?Terms=amaroli&Submit=Archive+Search
the website for Sahaja Yoga Meditation is http://www.sahajayoga.com -This is the central website.
the website for Sahaja Yoga Meditation in Canada is
http://www.freemeditation.ca
these websites are in connection to the information i have just posted for you Lisa, try the Canadian one first, that way you’ll see that what I am saying is being practiced by other people just like you in your very neighbourhood, go there and see for youself where a center is closeby to your home. these centres are free all over the world and ever since it started. you and me cannot afford to pay for the Divine help, not now not ever, so its free ever since it started and even today and even in the days to come.
BEST OF LUCK
Also mail me if you want further assistence from me in any way as I earlier mentioned, i can even come in contact to you on the phone and for however long if you require it. be free, just dont worry about my convenience, always there if you need me…
Dont postpone Sahaja Yoga and see what you can do as soon as possible, Im eagerly awaiting on this…..
Get well soon Lisa! Your will is inspiring. And it will find a way. Perhaps the cure for this disease was waiting for you.
hey lisa fans like me do hope that you have a full remission and would share that news with us in the future. you have a great attitude and hope you know that we are with you more than ever.
Dear Lisa ,
first of all right after KASOOR i became a huge fan of yours ,
than i tried to follow u , and i think i have read every piece of information about you on internet ,watched all of your interviews ,
in one interview when the host asked about ur hindi and u replied ” THEEK HEIN ”
u left bollywood coz u wanted to follow ur heart and bollywood was just star stucked ,
apart from ur face i loved this thing about u that u followed ur heart and were always a nomad 🙂 ,
, i have watched all of them even the embarrassing ones, one in which this stupid anchor tried to relate you to bollywood in some canadian desi show and you were completely pissed off 🙂 ,
even the KKFF interviews in which u said ya sex sells 🙂
i was trying my best to search your blogs some months ago , but now this bad news helped me to land here , i dont know what is this cancer and if it is treatable or not , but i want to tell u we all love you within our hearts , off course I love u a bit more than all others 🙂 ,
u have inspired me and it was not only ur beauty but it is ur heart following attitude that i really love
now again u have to follow ur heart , not other people or things of facts about ur disease
if in ur heart u know this u can beat it and it wont let u down , u will beat it , i can bet
i have seen cases , try to read about LANCE ARMSTRONG
Lance Armstrong, Sally Jenkins: It’s Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life (ISBN 0-425-17961-3), Putnam 2000.
this is the most inspiring book i have ever read , please read it
i am realy getting goose bumps rightnow thinkin that u will read this message
i dont want a reply but just somehow give some indication in ur next blog and i will know it
Love
Avinash Baliyan ( Avis )
Babe I really feel for you and your pain …all I want to tell you is that I believe in the philosophy of Nichiren Diashonin whic states that we as humans have infinite potential to change our life and overcome Karma, there have been numerous instances where people have come out of rather irrecoverable situations by basing faith in this philosophy…I really hope you take soem time off to know more about it …always praying for your receovery…you can click on the link below for more details.. http://www.sgi.org/
Hope this helps……if need eb contact me.
I wonder if you’ll ever have the time to read through all these comments. But if you do, please KNOW this: Cancer IS curable! If you’d really like to know more, feel free to email me.
Lisa,
Fight, Fight and Fight. Don’t give up, our prayers are with you!

Hello Lisa,
Your work in “water” communicated essence hence this response. You ought to live on while it is possible by stem cells. Sabina did point to this website but I would emphasize on stem cells:
http://www.multiplemyeloma.org/treatments/3.03.php
The above link sounds to be good place to start while following ones are worth a look:
http://myeloma.org/main.jsp?type=article&id=1167
http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2003/12_03_03a.html
http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/short/360/25/2645
Since they will be giving you cells from doner, I only hope you don’t lose the essence 😉
Cheers

Good luck, Lisa. We will all be rooting for you! Keep strong, and stay smiling!
Lisa,
I have always been a big fan of you. I wish you all the best.

So… all this time you were so beautiful and charming even though the blood was not right ?
Imagine how stunningly BEAUTIFUL you’re going to be once every little cell is in order ! =)
You’re so brave and intelligent. God bless you.

Hi Lisa, I have been a fan of yours ever since I saw you in the video ‘Afreen Afreen’. I am a healer by profession and will be able to help you, if you are willing. You can write to me at jagrutmraval@rediffmail.com.

Dear Lisa,
Hi I’m an Acute Myloid Leukemia (AML – Type M2 and M3) survivor. I was diagnosed with cancer about 4 years ago when I was 24. I admire your spirit, keep the faith and never ever loose hope or give up. I’ll put in a word for you with the guy upstairs.
Dear Lisa,
I am an oncologist/scientist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School in Boston.
I know that Princess Margaret Hospital is great place for cancer treatment, but in case you or your doctor feel that you would benefit in any way from consultation with other clinicians dealing with Multple Myeloma, please let me know. There is a very well respected group of physicians working on Multiple Myeloma at DFCI, and maybe they can provide some useful input on your treatment, I would be happy to facilitate this in any way.
Don’t watch a lot of Indian films, did see Water, and thought you were fantastic in that movie. Found out about your condition from a friend.

Hello Lisa,
I read about all this on a website. I am writing to you for the first time.
Be brave, my mother recently fought a battle with Lung Cancer, she lived well and breathed her last on august 26th.
Brave and strong willed as she was she always taught compassion and respect to elderly.
People who know when life is going to end are who are bothered. Keep fighting and you will Win !
There are lots of advanced therapies available and I sincerely hope your doctors will do the justice to the treatment. You have a nice soul and a strong body and mental health.
Let me know how can i support.

Lisa – you are in our prayers. My mother fought with Lung Cancer. You will be alright VERY soon 🙂
I would suggest you to visit LUKAS KLINIK in switzerland. They treat cancer with homeopathy. http://www.lukasklinik.ch
I am sure you will bounce back to the best of your health very soon.
Hey Lisa,
I saw both „I can’t think straight“ and „The world unseen“ the other day and I just have to say you’re really talented and inspiring. I just love watching you as Tala or Miriam and especially as Tala you made me laugh – your facial expressions are amazing 🙂 And I’m glad to see that you seem to keep your humour. That’s pretty admirable!
If I may quote Shamim – she wrote in her blog: “There is a cure for everything that ails us – we just need to find it, or allow the body to find it. And if anyone has the mind and spirit to allow that healing to happen, it’s Lisa.” And you know what? I think she’s absolutely right 🙂 If there’s anyone who can defeat this cancer it’ll be you. Keep your attitude, your inner strength and your lovely smile! We all believe in you 🙂
I wish you all the best!
Your devoted fan from Germany 🙂

I used to salivate upon viewing you on the telly at the age of 14, now am 31 and though the ‘recently attained puberty pangs’ have stopped to a greater degree I just felt numb when I read the news about your ailment. Distraught as I am; am sure with the bong side in you, you will fight it and emrge a winner. If at all you need a bone marrow transplant just let me know, I think I owe you this much atleast.
Don’t let me down, please. You need to meet me once your hale and hearty and upon my arrival from my deputation in Iraq I’ll drive till Canada or wherever you are just to say “all’s gonna be well”!
r…..!
Hi Lisa,
Its always sad to know someone getting this deadly disease. But nothing goes beyond the will of the Almighty. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer almost 18 months back. She had life expectancy of 6 months then. Its not easy coping with this disease. The best remedy is your own will power. Brain acts as the best defence towards this. Have a positivity around you. Live life the normal way. Dont let depression take over by any chance, it will make a person hollow letting the disease take the rest of the body.
Well for therapy, we are done with the english medicine and it has got nothing more to offer. We have opted for neuro therapy which involves a daily body accupressure for about 2 – 10 hrs. Its really showing up some positive results. You are a celebrity and you must have tried a lot by now. I really recommend neuro therapy to you. They have centres across india.
Hope you have a speedy recovery.
with best wishes!
Gautam Dogra
Dear Lisa,
I read the news about your illness on Indiatimes.com. I wish you a speedy recovery. May God give you enough strength to fight this disease.
There is a book i recently read which might help you with you recovery. Its called “The China Study” by Dr T Colin Campbell.
Keep fighting Lisa and you will definitely win this battle. Our prayers will always be with you.
Nisha
Hi Lisa:
I went through post partum depression and I do understand how therapy goes. One day you will be free of all the cancer, and God will help you. Just hang in there! My advice – try seeking help from a psychologist to keep up your good spirits. Although the cancer is rare, the more the inputs – your body, mind, soul and therapy, the more the outputs. And we loved you in Water and Bollywood Hollywood…just reach out…help is handy.
Love,
Meenal

Hi Lisa! 🙂
I’ve always thought that hard things happen to special people that can overcome them…you’re strong (your artistic choices and this brave blog can prove that) and you have a wonderful smile that will help you in everyday challenge…I believe in you and I believe in your strong soul!!! Fight, fight, fight!!!Thanks a lot for that!!! 🙂
A big hug from Italy,
Yle
Lisa,
I’m praying for your full recovery. My sister has had cancer twice in the last 6 years and has made a complete recovery. Hang in there and take care of yourself.
Dear Lisa ,
Just read about your illness in the papers today , and just then saw ur Garden Ad on the TV . My best wishes Get well soon .God Bless .
I know you from my school days and always wait to see your hoarding. Your smile always made my day and I use to turn around as bus passed away.
I wish you all the best and i am sure you will be alright. Keep your faith and do the best as usual.
All I have to say is I snorted coffee out my nose when I read your blog. To inject humor at this time is a great gift and I can’t stop laughing my head off. By the way those pepperettes are not only addictive to cancer patients and the reason none were there when you went is because I scarfed them all myself. Now I know you’re probably very fragile at this time so don’t let me have to arm wrestle you for them right in the middle of The Beach.
Live strong lady! You can do it.
Cheers!
Suman
hi Lisa,
I am very much fan of yours , i am very sadly to hear . We will all be rooting for you! Keep strong, and stay smiling!

Never Stop Fighting.
much love from Argentina
Lamento mucho saber de tu enfermedad, no te conozco, solo vi tus peliculas y realmente te deseo lo mejor.
Liza
Wish you the very best in fighting the cancer. Thanks for raising awareness; I didn’t know about it until the Times-of-India mention and was glad to read the facts you’ve cited.
A long time back, I read a book called “Dying and Living” by Allen Shapiro. Your attitude in fighting cancer reminds me of his inspirational story. Your attitude itself is inspirational and if you need any more inspiration, read Shapiro’s story.
We fans hope to see many, many, many more of your humanist roles.
Dear lisa
Am sad to hear of your problem ,we stand by you in any state ,pls take care of your self the best you can ,rest all our prayers are there for you ,we love you more than you know ,just reach out and stay strong .

Hi Lisa,

Keep Going

Multiple Myeloma is FULLY CURABLE
At the risk of proselytizing, which, for the majority of times is a sin that must be punishable by public flogging….here goes…The following, shall be partly scientific and partly spiritual
From the beginning of time to the present, every disease however deadly its reputation, has been easily cured. Voila, it happens every second of the day. Be it in the Amazonian jungles or the Saharan deserts or the Himalayan mountains, the cured far outnumber the sick.
We shall start, with a very basic concept – the human body is actually an energy field consisting of smaller sub-energy fields, perfectly in sync with each other. Just like in a car. Every subsystem from the brakes to the lights to the air-conditioning has to work perfectly for the entire car to work properly.
The bones, the skin and the organs are just an illusion. Isin’t that great news? The plasma cells in your bone marrow that you think are rampaging don’t actually exist. Hang onto me, Lisa for a few more lines. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to start figuring the things that I have stated. Millions of human beings are now awakening to a new consciousness. With supernatural force I shall not digress and keep to the matter at hand.
All our five senses are illusionary. Why is everything an illusion?
We’ll take a brief look at SIGHT.
Seeing is believing. But, to see you need the right equipment. Isin’t that correct? If I tried to sell you a pair of glasses that made you see things upside down and in 2-dimensions (our world is 3 dimensional), would you buy them from me? Heck no. You’d throw the pair right back at me and tell me to take a shot of scotch to clear my bird brain. Ahhh… the brain…we’re taught this neat little lesson by our beloved hot looking biology teachers that the brain takes the upside down image and makes it upright, converts the 2D image into 3D based on our belief system and ultimately we see the picture in our mind.
I’d auction my testicles for half a billion dollars (err…ahem …actually they’re priceless….we’ll think of some other not so important body part)….if anybody in the world actually has proof that this actually happens in the brain. The amount of hogwash perpetrated on mankind by human beings who thought they knew what they were talking of when in reality they were as clueless as everyone else and their aunt is mind blowing.
Secondly our eyes can only see 0.00001% of the entire electromagnetic spectrum. If I told you to walk around with eye shades meant for horses, only modify it and make it 1 million times more constrictive that it actually is on horses, would you do it? Well Lisa, I don’t have to. You and I were born with such eyes. For all practical purposes we’re blind to 99.9% of the electromagnetic spectrum. Ask any dimwit posing as a scientist and he gladly tell you, it’s true.
So a bunch of pregnant baboons took your blood sample, placed it under a microscope, used an irrelevant equipment called the human eye, and came to the conclusion that something is not right.
If a blind man looked at your blood samples under a microscope and told you that you had some aberration, would you believe him? I got news for you Lisa. That’s exactly what happened. You listened to a bunch of blind men. All our other senses don’t fare any better. Go figure.
Moving on, problems at the emotional level are the root cause of ALL physical manifestations of diseases from harmless blisters to cancer. If you go further down, the root cause of all diseases are a combination of a LOVELESS life and the festering of emotions such as jealousy, resentment, hatred etc. If your aunt has arthritis, it’s because of emotional issues. I won’t elaborate for fear of digressing.
This is how things go wrong. This is how the energy system of the body breaks down. At the end of the day people in this world are unloved, lonely, emotionally unbalanced and this unbalance ultimately results in the physical manifestation of a disease.
If your car’s AC stopped working, would you bombard it with radiation from the outside or check if the (electrical energy) energy going in and out of the AC unit is functioning properly? Duh!!!
Your body is an electrical/energy center. It is connected to every other energy source around it in its natural and harmonious state. When the harmony is broken down, the energy isn’t routed properly, resulting in disease.
Kirlian was a Russian who developed an amazing device called the Kirlian camera. World over they tried to duplicate the camera but as of today only the Russians know how to make it.
Kirlian’s camera was able to photograph the dazzling electromagnetic aura emitted by any living thing from a plant to a human being. The kirlian photograph of a human hand is so mind-blowingly, powerfully dazzling that at first sight it knocked the breath out of people who saw it. When plants were being ravaged in Russia due to disease, people were at their wits end as to how this could be prevented. In the early to middle stages the sick and the healthy plants looked exactly the same. Only in the latter stages did the disease manifest itself. Just like in human beings. Coincidence or what?
With Kirlian’s camera, the photograph of a sick plant in the early stages showed a sickly pale aura whereas a healthy plant had a dazzling aura. That put an immediate end to all crop diseases in Russia.
If an atom were split, the resulting nuclear fission results in such a huge amount of energy being given out that, its enough to power entire cities. Well Lisa, how many atoms are you made of? Millions, maybe billions. Do you have any idea as to how ungodly powerful an average human being is?
There are hundreds of books written on “thought”. The underlying message is the same. Thought is nothing but energy. Imagine your head emitting laser beams. It happens every second of your life. Where are these laser beams emitted to? Into open space. If these laser beams were emitted onto a mirror, what would happen? You’re right Lisa, they bounce back.
Well guess what? The universe is a mirror. The beams of thought energy emitted by your brain at various points in your life time, actually come back and manifest your reality. It happens everyday. Very few realize it though.
Why am I telling you this? When your thoughts are mixed with raw emotion (e-motion is energy in motion) such as faith and belief, they become a million times more powerful than the most powerful medicine every meant to cure anything. Couple this with love from your near and dear ones and diseases become a thing to laugh about. There are great books written on thought. The best are by Wallace D Wattles, Napolean Hill and Charles Hannel. Read them.
I’ve written 3 pages and I can write 300 more but I won’t. Why? Because I’m reminded by Warren Buffet. He always says: If you get it (understand something), you get it, or you never get it. It doesn’t take more than a few minutes.
When you filter things down to the basics, it’s an amazingly simple and beautiful life, a life that you create out of your own free will. The universe knows how to guide you. It guides you in your sleep through your dreams and while your awake through hunches and intuitions…those aha moments…those moments when your heart is yelling out as freaking loud as it can but very few ever listen.
I don’t have a clue as to who you are, but I can tell you one thing very firmly, very clearly, very convincingly, that if you believe from this very moment to choose life over death and do things that your heart’s being crying out for all these years, you will live and live and live until you have great grand children running around you in circles.
Sis GOD is there for u ..

Hi Lisa,
Frankly speaking I don’t know much about you but let me tell you a truth, you are a really strong girl. I can imagine how difficult is to face the truth an stay with the reality.
I am not suggesting you to start doing philanthropy work but this is a time when you can make your spectrum wider. Make sure that one day people will won’t remember Lisa Ray as an actress but they should remember you as who you are, Lisa Ray.
This is the time to pay back. God Bless You … Keep Smiling 🙂
You are God’s favorite child.
Regards, KMG
Hey Lisa,

Hi Lisa,
Life is full of struggles but I am sure you will tackle this just fine. I am proud of the way you are dealing with the situation. I am there for you. Inshallah you will be fine soon. I will pray for you.
Your writeup shows the courage that you possess. Never give up! Success is just round the corner.
It’s 11:00 pm India time and i am in my office working , and for a moment i went to google news to catch the snippets and then I read this news abt U… ..

Your spirit reminds me of a long read classic “Aparajito” – The Unvanquished…..
I know U can do it… All the Best !!!
Hi Lisa,
It is disheartening to know about your ailment.
But let me tell you, with the improvements in science and modern medicine, nothing is incurable.
Follow your treatment properly and I am confident that you will win this battle against cancer.
Hi Lisa
i am sure u will come out of it. just keep 2 things in mind always …. Be positive and donth think about it too much and secondly try and keep ur self busy. it really helps. i have been suffering from cancer my self for the last 13 years, but there is hope u know. with so much research going on and new medications being discovered , sceniaro is positive.
There is a very famous Homoeopathy doctor in Mumbai known as Einstien of homoeopathy u know, and he meets by appointment only. heard a lot of him. He as cured many cancer patients. i will try and find out his address and tele nos for you as soon i can.
i am sure he will cure you.
Regards……
I salute your spirit and determination. Our prayers are with you. Stay strong.
Hope you pull through this.
Oh Lisa I know what it is as I am battling my wifes colon cancer for 2 yrs.Son too has benign bone cancer.
Anyhow medically we are doing all we can but it is Prayer that keeps us going.God also has a purpose to all this.A peachy week.Joseph.
Dear Lisa
Can I request you to seriously consider treatment from Dr Anil Taneja who is a regular MBBS Doctor who practices Ayurvedic based herbal and mineral treatment. He has prolonged life of many a patients with your condition and cured many with incurable conditions. You can contact the doctor as given on his website http://dr_anil_taneja.tripod.com/
Happy Healing
Good Luck
Hey there,
i am not going to insult you by saying “sorry” and all that shit. But i can promise one thing-support-unstinted-unconditional-everlasting support.
I can’t remember when i was last disturbed like this but by the time i finished reading your piece, i no longer was and could not think of a more lovelier person to be a admirer of. From the days of lusting through your pictures to admiring your choice of work – it’s been some journey. But at this point, u can count me as your friend who will be with you in this journey to beat this cancer. Let’s do it. One day at a time. U might just have to bear with my messages that’s all.
Godspeed.
Love you always.

Hello Lisa..
Its gotta be a bad news for your fans and (u having blogged about the disease you are diagnosed with) it would surely have made you feel odd enough. I hope you get well soon and gat back to doing what you do best. Wishing you a good luck.
Dearest Lisa:
I’m here for you with whatever you need….i.e. screenings to raise funds for the cure in the US. I’m the festival coordinator at HERE FILMS and I’m here to help!
That said ….I kicked Cancer Butt myself!!
You have the perfect attitude towards this damn disease!
Much love, hugs & kisses and healthy food:)

Dear Lisa,
As many before me have stated, a strong determination and will to live can truly allow you to win over the cancer and emerge victorious.
Its great that you have embraced the spirit to fight this battle. Personally I would like to share with you a great truth that I have recently been introduced to and can already feel that my life has changed forever.
By chanting ‘Nam myo ho renge kyo” which means devotion to the mystic law of the universe which pervades every element of the universe we can truly bring about a change in ourselves and be winners in any situation. There have been numerous examples of how people have overcome their challenges be it fighting with cancer or in any other area of life. I truly encourage you to refer to sgi. usa website for more information. It is a simple yet profound philosophy which I assure you will give you tremendous courage and hope to live a truly admirable life cancer free.
Being an Indian myself and so well aware of yoga and meditation techniques, it took me some time to understand why this Buddhist principle of chanting was different from other wonderful techniques such as the ones i mentioned. The difference I realize lies in the fact that we have a tool (chanting NMRK) in our hands to exercise and attain actual proof of practice in our life as opposed to wealth of information that we otherwise passively assimilate but do not know how to use it in our lives.
I hope you will take the time out to look into this.
Best
Determination gives you the resolve to keep going in spite of the roadblocks that lay before you. There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul. An invincible determination can accomplish almost anything and in this lies the great distinction between great women and little women.
I know that you’re a strong woman and will overcome every hurdle in life. Keep the faith in yourself and you will come out of this.
Now cheer up and put that smile back on your face -:)
Cheers!

the best thing to happen is u now know what it is, so the only thing left is to reverse the activity … try not to do things different keep it as ur never had cancer(do all the things u do if u never had cancer) seek a medical help n try out some yoga(u just gotta believe its in your blood) just pay a visit to kerala if u can..hope to see u in good shape….crying is devil-kind…so never cry what be the circumstance…
“ginger can help u gain some antibodies(seek a professional advice on this)”.. dont read books n stuff all those inspirational dogma…instead spend more time with ur family n friends that will help u more….. ‘about ur typical case of restlessness symptom and me’…,.believe i have an uncanny insight in some stuff and i believe its curable….if u r having late sleeping , try to sleep early…u can only try i can understand that…so do it..since of all things u can do ..u can try…move out of canada if it is not an issue go to tropical places …get healthy natural foods like banana papaya beetroot carrot bittergourd chille etc
(but im not a doc nor an expert so dont take all what i say…refer to ur doctor about what i said and do only those he suggests)…all the best..if u want anything more do mail at matalu@ymail.com, im from india..
also do take care of ur finances..i dont know of those details of urs….
Hey Lisa,
everyone has to go when they have to go – so do not even start thinking about it. I am healthy but may GO before you do – who knows- its imperative and beyond our control – so let it be.
what is important is how we have lived this grace of our lives – that is what matters.
you have been very close to millions of hearts – that is what you take along with you. We love you and pray for you.
If you read this, do understand that you have lived a beautiful life and been dear to so many of us. that is Gods blessing on you.
I beg you to come on twitter and share your views with all of us.
Love life, live life and say bye with a smile
God bless

Hi Lisa,
Start doing pranayama immediately. At least 1 hour morning and evening and follow the diet as recommended by Baba Ramdev. You’ll be fine in few months. Thousands have reversed their cancers. Remember when when moden medicine fails, only pranayama works.
Nothing , nothing , nothing will be wrong ! I am sad but not heartbroken , I am worried but not hopeless .. I pray with all my heart you will happily chirping again

You are awesome, admire your positiveness and courage. Please keep it up.

You will be fine soon. Done let anything bother you. Be strong. Be good.

I’ve met you just once and you’re one of the coolest, nicest human beings on the planet… You rock Lisa Ray!

Best of luck Lisa and keep us updated about your treatment / progress… Cheers mate!
Wow …. god knows from where this lady gets this much of courage…trying to defeat the disease with humor. You lady have given me the will to fight against all adversities. Thanks

I have faith in God… I m a big fan of urs since the time when i saw u in Aafrin video…. u r one of the most beautiful woman in the world..
I love u … praying for ur quick recovery

Lisa,
First, let me say thank you for all of the movies. I’ve been a HUGE fan since Bollywood/Hollywood and have seen everything of yours I can get my hands on, usually more than once. (I’m especially fond of I Can’t Think Straight and The World Unseen for strictly prurient reasons. I think whoever convinced you to play a member of the “family” should receive a Nobel. haha)
Secondly, I’ve been fighting one of those incurable, life-threatening illnesses for a while now and for what it’s worth, here’s my two cents: LAUGH! I tell the most horrifically morbid jokes about the symptoms, the side effects and all of my very serious end-of-life decisions. Some people don’t think they’re funny, but it helps a lot more than people realize. I’ve outlived my prognosis twice over and am much stronger than expected. So, I win.
Third, another two cents: GLOAT! Every day is a victory over death. I know nice girls aren’t supposed to rub it in, but to heck with being a nice girl.
Good luck,
Melinda
Hi Lisa,
Very sorry to hear about your illness. But you are right… there’s definitely some cure for your illness as Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) also stated that “Almighty God has not created any disease without creating its cure”.
In the meantime, besides ur current treatments, Why don’t you drink some Habbas-sauda oil (Black seed oil) daily?? It’s scientific name is Nigella sativa. It may prove useful in boosting your immunity and may help you in your fight against your illness.
Happy to be of help…
Regards,
Faisal
Hi Lisa,

Hi Lisa,
It is your subversion which has made you so endearing. The ability to go against the grain is not as common or easy as we like to think.
I don’t know if you are a believer or an atheist. I am a believer. I am going to pray for you. To a great life. Take care and fight.
From India
A Fan.
There is only one way to cure yourself, Which ofcourse English Medicine people will never accept, due to commerical reasons.
That is Drink Cow Urine of a healthy Pure Indian Cow (not hybrid) for 120 days daily. Don’t Store it for much time, before you drink.
Similarly Cow Dung If you are determined enough.
Cure of Cancer is a Sure Case.
Hi Lisa,
I am really in shock after knowing your fight with the CANCER.
You were allways been my dream girl and followed you in all the movies which you acted in .
I was not able to take a place in your happy times but I will be surely with you in hard times like this .
I know you can offered best medicines and treatment in CANADA .
Keep your heart calm and clean. Do yoga every day. be stronger from inside. Nothing
can break your will to look like helthy LISA RAY.
I pray god for your helth.

Hi Lisa,
I’m not going to say ‘Sorry to hear about you’. Because I know, you can live long – yeah, another optimistic gal. But not an optimistic just for the sake of it, I’m in the same boat as you. My Dad has been diagnosed of cancer last month, and as I spoke to people about it…I got help in the form of information from many quarters.
Its about a doctor who offers tele-medicine and has been hugely successful. Please check out his website

The best thing you can do right now is bring attention to your disease through pro-active behavior. And of course a positive attitude.
You think Bollywood is bad? I’m an actress in Hollywood!!
I’ll be keeping you in my prayers and if you want a shout out from my blog, let me know.
All the power to you Lisa. I am a painter, and 10 years back I had a chronic infection in right hand that’s my painting hand. That’s due to a surgery gone bad. I was scared. You know, I drew a portrait of the surgeon before He was going to perform surgery on me and said save my hand. It was struggle but I am fine now. But those lonely evenings & nights taught me a lot about myself. Live this pain, and come out stronger. We all have limited years here, experiences are all that we collect. Connect with people who love you and whom you love. Just live through it, use it in your art, find that real you, the beauty, the ugliness & deal with it and you are going to thank God when you would be 90 years old.
Be happy

Hi Lisa,
Life becks on all of us one day. Some die while they are living, some live while they are dying. Curing not curing is upto god. Death is something which is dirty sure to you to me and to everybody. On oneside you are being approached by people who themselves dont know would be run over by a car tommorrow or would suffer air crash or fall from running trains. Having been on the bedside of my father for 2 months who finally succumbed to death, due to multiple organ failures the only thing I stood about Life is “We as less informed humans only die everyday” and people who are dying “Live every moment”. When doctors told my father and me that he would ultimately succumb, the only thing he said was your my son, help me to live my last days happily, and my happiness lies in your mother, so you should know whom you care most abt and there is where your heart is, keep them happy and god willing you would come out a different lady one day

Dear Lisa,
It’s very unfortunate that i came to know about your blog through the news about your disease. Something new i’ve come to learn about you through this blog is that not only are you a talented actor but also a great writer. I loved that “Gollum worthy breakdown” comment. LOL. too funny.
I love your positive attitude during such an ordeal though. Keep it up and i’m sure you will beat back this disease. Bloated or not bloated i’m sure Lisa Ray will still look awesome and i’ve loved you since that Bombay Dyeing Ad. Also, i didn’t know you are a Yoga instructor. Have you come out with a DVD? Is it available in India? Please mention it on the blog if you have.
Try taking Organic vegetarian food. I’ll pray to Lord Krishna that you get better soon.
Take care,
Rohan.

No matter what happens; the sun extinguishes or not, China turns a democracy or not, Australia is defeated by Afghanistan or not, WW3 happens or not; you are and will always remain the ‘ Afreen Afreen’ girl. There have been very few like you.

Life! really difficult to demonstrate… happiness… sadness.. rarely a combination of both… But one optimist like you can make a sad situation to a happy life …
I am always surprised about Stephen Hawkins who always challenging the notion of sadness.
I hope you will survive all these threats and will be a role model for many ignorant people.
Hi Lisa
I’m sure you would not remember me, but we met a few times when you were in Bombay in 1997/98 and one time stayed at Nisha Jamwal’s house. I was her neighbour.
Just wanted to let you know that I will pray for you and I wish lots of love and luck to beat this disease and fully recover. All the best.

Dear Lisa,
My partner lives through cancer. She has the light of life in her eyes, as her body fights its way, and ‘not surviving’ is never an option… or even a passing thought. Consider this…. no matter what happens inside, if you believe. then your body believes. Havent you willed your way through life before? Willing something to happen through sheer faith and self belief. With NO DOUBT? To be unpredictable is the nature of cancer. It kills out of fear, not out of logic.
So this works for us. Everyday, we do what we do. Work, walk and watch movies. Travel, fight, laugh and play.
When something happens… well it happens. Then we go to the hospital, joke with the doctors, smile through the prods, and the pokes, and the pricks. Feel sick when we feel sick. And when we get better, we are not afraid to say so. Self pity is so easy and so boring.
And when we walk out, the sun is shining on a brand new day. Sure, it will set… but when it wants to, not when you want it to. And you can make a day last forever. Its in your hands.
We continue to live this fight. She is the bravest woman I know. I feel her pain more than she does. I break down, she pulls me up. She
……She , like so many women, is so inspirational. And because she knows she will live forever, I know she will.
I think you will too. I KNOW you will. Because you dont doubt it…!
My heart goes out for you. You will be in my prayers tonight. Hey, I know you’ll win the battle! Just don’t forget to invite me to the bash when you do. God bless.
God Bless you Lisa,
I wish you the best ………..
Lisa
You are the loveliest.
You must win…you have to.
you mean positivity…..you mean evrything beautiful in this world…
Wanted to dedicate you this song .. Yellow – Coldplay

Hi, The facts you wrote are according to the allopathic medical science, But using Yoga and Gehu ke Jaware ( wheat grass juice) it will make any problem in cells go fine in 3 months. Dont worry much, use actual indian sciences of ayurveds and herbs, u will be fine and running in no time, and you will realise india and its sciences have the power to change lives really.
It’s will be o.k LISA
love you
Hey Lisa….
i was not aware of my ability to shed tears over somebody so distant …unrelated…..whose just two movies i have seen yet…..
but i did shed a couple of…..and i think that was not because i was being so sad for u….
but i think because there was no other way of complimenting you on how bravely u r fighting this ailment…..
and it means too much to me as i am somebody who is always imagining……. her occasional headache turning into a hemourage or a brain tumour, her stomach ache is related to appendicitis…or may be a possible kidney failure……her sense of claustrophobia is nothing but asthama…..
love u for being what u are…..i know u will emerge a winner….

Yup. As someone else suggested too, learn and practice the “Sudarshan Kriya” from the Art of Living, EVERYDAY.

Thought this might help –
“Our bodies have learned to heal themselves over millions of years of evolutionary time. Our bodies are the best pharmacies in nature. They make antibodies, sleeping pills, tranquilizers, immunomodulators, and anti-cancer drugs in the precise dose at the precise time and for the right target organ; and all the instructions come in the packaging! The “packaging” is your own inner self — the ultimate and supreme genius which mirrors the wisdom of the universe.
Cognition or thinking, moods, feelings and emotions, behavior, social interactions, personal relationships, environment, diet, and the inner world of consciousness including attention and intentionality all influence the biology of healing.” – Deepak Chopra
In the end, It is your own “true” belief that shall help.
My best wishes and regards
Lisa,
We all love you. I strongly belive that you will win this fight.

Hello
I’ve also been diagnosed with bone marrow cancer – Non_Hodgkins lympoma (Waldendstrom)
I’ve not gone for chemotherapy yet.
I am now on the Budwig diet. (cottage cheese and flaxoil). This is working for me so far.
Please give a try.
Search on youtube for budwig or FOCC.
All the best

Hope you take on this very difficult challenge head-on and come out victorious.
Hi Lisa,
Every day in the morning life starts sfresh.. with new curiousity and enthusiasm.. And seems like you are starting your days like that. That’s great. Keep rocking girl!!

Hey Lisa
I understand that you are in canada.They do have very good physicians there.I am an oncologist and treat and deal with multiple myeloma.
My sincere suggestion is get yourself referred to Little Rock Arkansas myeloma institute.
Bone marrow transplant is a great option especially since you are very young.It offers the best possibiliy of long term remission and possible cure.
I have 2 >10 year survivors in my practice.
Hope this helps and feel free to contact me if you need any further advice .
Just thought id share my 2 cents worth
Hi,
It is truly unbelievable to hear that you were diagnosed with such a rare cancer.
My mom was diagnosed with multiple myeloma when she was 40. I will not be able to explain in words my thoughts and feelings about the reality of such experience. I almost wish I could share some thoughts with you.
I truly hope that you remain positive because its very important in the long run. My prayers are with you.

I was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease 10 years ago. The doctors didn’t think I could make it. It’s all about inner-strength, and it sounds like u hav plenty of that.

Chère Lisa,
Ce qui vous arrive est terrible. Terriblement dur, et terriblement injuste à votre âge. Vos confidences me touchent beaucoup. Vous êtes une femme extraordinaire. Je pense bien à vous, et vous envoie toutes mes pensées dans cette épreuve que vous dépasserez, j’en suis certaine.
Carole, de Paris
The “Answer” lies within you. I request you search for it.
Lisa,
Bad to hear about your trouble. U know I dont know u. I dont even admire ur acting. But as a human being, I took the pain to create an account in wordpress to just write a comment that I dont know whether you will read or not.
I cant assure you whether science and medicine can cure you and ur relative. But there is something that is beyond science and beyond thought. Its through which everything comes and goes. Come to him. Ask for a rescue. Possibility is that you have to live for a second innings. I know people who have asked for His help have got one. But shun ur complexities.
We, in india, are really luck to be born in land of gods and saints. The blessings of these saints can do miracles. Science & medicine is limited but their grace is not. So, Come to a true saint. God willing, every thing will be all right. you have my words.
Regards
Lisa,
It’s great to see your positive attitude facing this situation!
You’ll get over it, don’t worry!!!
Go easy and confident, that will be already an important part of the cure.
Wish you the best,
Love,
Ana
Best wishes for a full remission. I applaud your courage.
Hi Lisa,
There is a doctor in Dubai, U.A.E. who has treated and cured many such patients. He is very well known in Dubai. If interested, let me know so that I can pass you his contact details.
Hi Nairaon,
Can u please tell me how can i post a comment on this blog. I can only see the reply option.
Pls make it fast. I think we can try out energy healing on Lisa.
Dont delay.
Prashanth
Dear Lisa,
I was shocked to hear the news about M.M.The reason i was “more” stunned,if I may say,than the general public,is I used to mention your name in my dental school mates slam book under favorite famous person category.This was about 12 yrs ago (I think you had ventured into India as a model at that time).Another coincidence is,my ma-in-law and my granny had M.M.
It’s a realy shocker that someone as young as you are should end up with it.But the positive aspect is that being young,you can fight it out more efficiently,medically speaking.
Apart from all the prescribed drugs given for M.M,their is a “nature drink”,called Noni (I think it is of Hawaiian origin),which is a very effective supplement to the chemo drugs.I woruld like to suggest,if I may,that you should contact the Arya Vaidysala,in Kerala.

All the best.
take care.
Dear Lisa,
Im Raza 31/male frm Pakistan. I saw your movie “Kasoor” and found you….well, very attractive….There is something devlish about you… 😉
Recently, I came to know about your Cancer…and well, I felt sad…So, take rest, have your medicines and remember…every day is a gift…..it would be nice to see your reply as well….and yes, keep on writing on your blog….
LISA NEVER STOP FIGHTING,LISA ,NICE TRY!WE LOVE YOU !
Lisa, Best wishes for u,nice try!We all love you always…..
Dear Lisa,
THERE ARE NO INCURABLE DISEASES, ONLY HIDDEN CURES AWAITS TO BE DISCOVERED.
May I propose that we start Ray Of Light Global Cancer Campaign to raise awareness and money for Multiple Myeloma cancer research? Let’s find a cure for millions of people suffering from MM and for our beloved LISA RAY.
I felt devastated when I first learned about your condition; It’s like finding out that my sister was diagnosed with MM, my heart sank…
I remember the first time I saw you was in Deepa Mehta’s WATER. Your innocent and ethereal presence captured me instantly. Of course, another reason is that you remind
me too much of two ladies who I love dearly, both beautiful, elegant and fun—my mother and my aunty when they were in their 20’s.
It’s no secret that you are one of the most beautiful women in the world, but for me it’s your contagious smile, inner beauty and strength that I find captivating. You are too precious to lose and this world so desperately needs you; we need your RAY OF LIGHT permeate every corner of this planet!
I live in southern California and am close to a university that has one of the best Stem Cell Research Center and Cancer Research Center in the world, and have dear friends who are in the field of medical/cancer research. It’s gonna be a fight, no cliches. But together we will find a cure for Multiple Myeloma, and YOU WILL REWRITE MEDICAL HISTORY.
I hope this message reaches you with good spirits. Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any help to you. I’d feel very blessed and honored if I can do something to lighten your load and help promote awareness of Multiple Myeloma.
My prayers & best wishes are always with you.
Much love & light,
Sabrina
Lisa,
Got to know about your Multiple Myeloma from my wife, sorry to hear about it but there’s no need to panic although incurable can be in remission(no signs of the disease in blood and bone marrow) for years. At the insistence of my wife i am writing this…ofcourse you may have researched about MM and i have no doubt about Dr Galal’s expertise and hid decision to start Rx with VRD.
I feel the premier institiute in the world for MM, is The Myeloma Institiute for Research and Therapy in Little Rock, Arkansas. Dr. Bart Barlogie is one of the leading experts in this field. They treat over 600 patients every year which is the more than any institution in the worls. I would strongly suggest you to have a second opinion from Dr. BB. One of the ways to treat Myeloma is to mobilize and collect stem cells so it could be used at a later date for transplant with myeloablative drugs like Melphalan which kills the stem cells in bone marrow. Numerous clinical trials have proved tandem transplants the best way to achieve complete remission and overall survival rate. They also use a risk based treatment approach, based on a gene score patients are classified as Low risk Vs High risk and treatment varies for different group.
I donot want to be too techical but please let Dr. Galal look at the below websites and make an informed decision. The good news is there are many patients who are in complete remission even after 20 years of diagnosis.
Good luck

Lisa.. you still have a long way to go. I’ll pray for your recovery in our temple(70 kms from Hyderabad). It’s very powerful deity. I am sure you’ll be normal soon.

Hi LISA…..
LIVE LIFE QUEEN SIZE……..Take Care…
My dear Colleague, hello Lisa !
brave, your outing. Probably best way to fight that what comes over night unexpected with such a diagnosis.
With 25 I had this experience, it was like “Mr. Death” is knocking on your door and demanding to come with you. It was the same cancer type as Lance Armstrong, the byciclist and Tour de France winner had… nothing of fun such a diagnosis…
It was shocking for me as you write, that this kind of rare cancer is uncurable… and that it needs a complexe package of medical treatment to handle it as best as possible. Yes, life seems not fair… sh*** happens…
I had luck to overcome cancer; that time I had a girl friend, she was medicine student. Without her I wouldn’t be anymore, that’s now 20 years ago… and probably without this high-tec medicine same my soul would drift through universe now…
Such an impact onto own life, with surgery, radiation treatment (in my case) and then 5 years keep up the “watching dogs” every 6 months checking the tumor markers that’s something which changes your life generally, in everything.
It changes the whole view onto the world. For me it was not possible to go a step back into my former life. But I can understand that you try to keep running your businesses as usual… Wok helps to avoid getting mad 🙂
Today and as I tried last 2 decades I seek more than ever for “sense” in my life.
You think, red carpets, flash lights, star image is still something important to waste time with it ? – I am in media businesses on my own; but less I try to focus on some relevant content bringing “on air”…
Today it’s good we have Internet and you can share your thoughts with such experiences… it can help oneself and it can give others some orientation about what’s life in reality, absent from the glamour world of BW, KW or HW.
I wish you by heart all the (mental) and (physical) power and ongoing faith; and hope you have good friends around you…
Warm regards from a nighty Hamburg in Europe/North Germany

“Love All Serve All” “Help Ever Hurt Never”
Acabei de saber…
Não tenho palavras para descrever de como saber disso me deixou extremamente triste.Fico ao mesmo tempo chocada com a sua bravura, você é uma das pessoas que eu “conheço” que nasceram para brilhar e suportar.
Pessoas como você facilmente saem de situações complexas, como está, sinto que vai dar tudo certo, porque se depender de sua luz interior, você ainda vai iluminar muitas pessoas como eu, sua família e amigos e principalmente os seus fãs, que te adoram muito e estaram sempre mandando vibrações positivas.
Se Deus existir, espero que ele ouça as minhas orações, TUDO FICARÁ BEM.
Hi Lisa,
1st thing, I m speechless. Nevertheless, I am happy to know that you keep fighting. Its my first time visiting your blog and thanks for sharing all the personal details.
Well, I am a tibetan. I know there are many precious pills in tibetan hospital. Why dont you try one of those?
I don’t know what else to say.
love you girl and keep faith in yourself.
Nice to hear that you have not lost hope. All the best and keep believing in life and stay happy.
Believe in yourself because you are the only one who can save yourself. You are your own doctor.
Believe in GOD, believe in doctor, believe in Bible…….believe whatever u like……….These things may strengthen your hope. Ultimately, your belief in your hope matters.
Long Live Lisa

Lisa,
I was so sad to hear about your diagnosis…You are a fighter and will beat this illness. I have faith in your recovery because you are so very talented and you still have a ton of work to show the world. Stay strong and keep your head held high..
P.S. A couple years back I had brain surgery and during my recovery I found humor and music to be the most therapeutic…
Take care and keep on with that beautiful smile,

Hey Lisa, None of the statistics about survival and cure rates are absolute.Never break a sweat about it.Every person is unique and so will your response to the treatment be.Maintain a positive attitude, be hopeful, chase dreams.It boosts your immune system and potentiates the chemotherapy.
I am a 24 yr old medico and a survivor of Hodgkin’s lymphoma.I hope you help spread awareness about these “-omas”.Its truly satisfying when you give back to the society.
Hi Lisa,
Did you try Pranayaam (yogic breathing exercises)? It can provide cures and relief to diseases like cancer. Visit http://www.divyayoga.com/main.htm . I am sure you will be cured.
Good luck.
Regards,
Poornima
Lets focus on important actionable items:
1) Have an impeccable professionally prescribed diet.
2) Meditate daily preferably under guidance of trainer.
3) Make someone happy each day.
Young is is actually your advantage as you’ll find out soon that body responds better to treatment then.
My next door neighbour is 60+ and multiple myeloma survivor since last 5 years.
Mark my words. God willing you are going to do it and come out a winner.

Lisa,
You have already made it the sexiest cancer out there. There is no doubt in anyones mind that you can beat this thing down.
All my best wishes for a speedy recovery so we can see you on the screen again quickly :).
Get well really soon.
Hi LISA,
I had seen a person who got cured of the same disease by practising BABA RAMDEV yoga. It is aired on AASTHA channel. Please try to get more details in that regard.
Yours lovingly….JC
Hi Lisa,
I’m a 45 year old male that was diagnosed on May 8th with MM and have been on Dex since May 9th and Velcade since the start of July. I am also being treated at PMH, but we do not have the same Doctor. I have Dr. Kukreti who I hear through other friends that are in the medical community that he is one of the best, not to say Dr. Galal isn’t. In my opinion the entire team from the nurses (chemo daycare) to the doctors are all tops in my books at PMH.
I learned through my Mom, that you made the news, with coming out with this news. Good for you!!! I must admit though, I really have not heard of you until now, but I realize that you have a incredible following. I’ve taken the exact same approach and everyone I cross paths with finds out and becomes a little more educated on MM. My wake obviously doesn’t have the same reach, but with more individuals like yourself bringing it to light will help.
As I read your post above I had to laugh, it sounds like something I could have written.. to the tee. I have an extremely positive attitude, no time for crying here, as well I want to get the word out as well as figure out more ways to give back to help others in the future. You will find I also had similiar experiences with Dex the bloating or wet suit as you call it, the wanting to eat everything… and when I my a mistake I blame it on the roids! LOL! If you knew me at all you would see someone that has always been extremely healthy very naturally strong in good athletic shape and able to do pretty much anything also with an “A” type personalilty which has kept me working when I should probably take some rest time especially on those 4 off days when you come down from the roids after being pumped up for 4 days. Then there are those mornings when you go to put your pants on to a suit you just wore just 3 days earlier I realized the pants wouldn’t fit! LOL! After trying on three other pairs in your wardrobe and you find the same problem, I started thinking I may have to go to an important meeting wearing dress shoes with track pants! LOL! Not sure if my employer (TD Bank) would be too impressed! Thanks to the Dex! 😉
I however want you to know that you have a friend here that is traveling the path just a little ahead of you and if you wish to ever chat via email or other I am happy to share my experiences. Next week I will actually be starting the stem-cell harvest and I’m looking forward to it! It’s the next stage of battle!!!
I also want to lend you my hand in support to get the word out. Being that I work for TD Bank I have thought that might be an avenue to assist at some point. I however have been thinking there has to be more ways to do this and wasn’t sure just yet how to go about it. I guess I’m looking for a very creative approach to do this. Maybe we can brainstorm.
So know you have a young friend here traveling the same road that supports you and applauds your speaking out… telling the world! You have me in your corner and like Rocky, we will both become victorious! Can you hear the theme playing in the background! LOL!
Be well,
Warner
hi there lis!(The acronym sounds fine 🙂
All said and done, when u get up every morning, i hope n pray that u need not feel anything different, but now is the time you give time to meditations and yoga, that is to yourself and your body or whatever that gives you peace of mind. Ofcourse this does not include gobbling things up your stomach.Things will look up, after all see for yourself how many of us wish you well and its ultimately number of lives that you have touched directly or indirectly that will enlighten your heart.Every second is important, anyways we all are supposed to go away someday, no harm done….take care of yourself….!
Hi Lisa,
I was just lying in bed and saw your interview on ET Canada….I’ve just finished reading through your blog entries and all I can say is I am in such awe of you. You’re such a beautiful person, and the way in which you are dealing with this is truly incredible, inspirational and admirable. You’re so witty and honest in your writing, and such an amazing strong woman. You WILL get through this with your amazing attitude, there is no doubt. You have so many people praying for your recovery and health…and I’m sure a crowd of angels watching over you 🙂 We met at the MMM Q&A, and took a picture together at the Plan booth…I actually have that picture up on my dresser, I wear my Plan tee all the time, and it was so great to see you wearing your tee on ET right now too……you have so much going on in your personal life and yet you’re so ready to give and help others, and I’m ecstatic that you’ll be attending all the TIFF festivities, and hope we get to meet there again….before we had even met at MMM I knew you were the most perfect person to represent true beauty for Fusia….and reading your blog it shows just how strong and inspirational you truly are.
I am praying for your recovery, and thank you so much for sharing something so personal with your fans…….we love you and wish you the very best. Thank you for kind heart, and incredible beauty inside and out…..the wetsuit can’t change that! 😉
Love and (((((BIG HUGS))))))

Hi,
I don’t know if this comment will ever be read, but I truly hope it does.
I recently came across MMRF – Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation which Kathy Giusti (another MM victim) came up with to organize the treatment and to come up with options for patients.
I hope you look into it, if you haven’t already and I hope the best for you!
Goodluck and Godspeed.
Sags
Be positive, believe in getting well, be with positive people…
You WILL fight this!
Take Care
Hi Lisa,
I wish you all the best in fighting with the disease. I truly admire your courage and fighting spirit.
I am not an expert in this subject, but I read a book by Lance Armstrong – It’s not about bike, it’s my journey back to life, which showed how much strength it really requires to pass through this. May God give you all the strength you need to fight this disease and you have all over blessings and best wishes!
All the best..
There is an alternate way of getting out of cancer,no matter how advanced state it may be.The defects in your subtle bdy has to be cured first.with out that medicine wont help you anyway.if you are ready for that i will take up your case.

Hi Lisa
Its sad to hear about your illness, but you know when there is no hope Jesus is always there for help. If you pray to Jesus, call Him in your heart and seek healing from Him, you will be healed. This is happening every where in this world. I don’t know whether you know Jesus or not but just believe in Him and He will do miracle in your life. But after getting healing surrender yourself for God’s work, like Anil Kant and Johny Lever are doing in your Bollywood industry.
Hi Lisa
You are so talented and brave. may god bless you and
give you strenght to keep doing what you do best.
Take care we are all praying for you.
I know you meditate. Put all you love and light into that body of yours. You’re a warrior, and it’s time to be one now for yourself. We all send our love to you.
Luv you Lisa.
Have patience ,Time is the Player which sets everything.

Hi Lisa,
Sorry to hear about your MM diagnosis. There are many people just like you who are fighting MM. We started the M-Moving Together Toward the Cure team, which walks 5K annually as part of the Toronto Marathon/ Princess Margaret 5K Your Way. In just 4 years, we have managed to raise over $650,000 towards research at the PMH in the fight against MM. This is our 5th year and we would love to give you (and your family and friends) some information on how to join us in this fight. On Sunday, October 18, 2009, the Multiple Myeloma M-Moving Together Toward the Cure Team will go the extra mile for the 5K Your Way Walk/ Run in support of The Princess Margaret Hospital. The event is part of the GoodLife Fitness Toronto Marathon.
This year an important campaign is being held to raise funds to support the first research Chair in Canada dedicated to Multiple Myeloma. The Molly and David Bloom Chair for Multiple Myeloma Research will focus on new drug development and it will allow PMH to recruit and retain a top-level researcher to provide vision and facilitate groundbreaking MM research. The work of the Bloom Chair will mean that more promising new cancer drugs will be tested and moved as quickly as possible from the laboratory to patients. It will also mean that better screening and tests for early detection of the disease will be developed, resulting in longer and better lives for multiple myeloma patients worldwide. All funds raised by the Multiple Myeloma M-Moving Together Toward the Cure Team in the 5K Your Way Walk/ Run 2009 will support the Molly and David Bloom Chair for Multiple Myeloma Research. This year, our fundraising goal is $250,000 – and we need you to help us reach it!
Check us out at http://www.mm5kwalk.ca or contact me directly at cleder@rogers.com We hope that you will join us in the fight to cure Multiple Myeloma.

Hi Lisa,
I will suggest you a perfect solution.Drink one glass of neem leaf juice daily.You will see the result very soon.Ayurveda says neem as ‘Sarva Roga Nivarini’.You can have some luck if you follow my advice.All the Best.
How are you today?
To you, who have given us some very good entertaining moments through your movies, we wish, that the toughest moments become easy on you.
May God bless you and make you stronger!
Good Luck!
HI Lisa, Here is the solution for all your problem…
Jesus Christ ! It does not involve you going anywhere or meeting anyone or anything
You can be healed in your room right now . All it takes for you to believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour of your life.
Knowing God is like any other relationship… U need to want to know Him.
Christ already paid the price for our sins on the cross 2000+ years ago. The Bible says by His stripes we are healed. Which means that sickness has no place in our life because Christ has made us whole.
All u need is wanna know God and trust Him completely.
Simple solution Lisa…
And it involves just You and God
God already loves u …thats why He died for you… And He is alive today watching over you.
DO you wanna get to know Him ?
If you can get a BIble… Read Matthew , Mark, Luke and John … Its full of miracles that happened
And hey miracles are not just for Biblical times.. It happens even today.
Do u believe ?
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday , today and forever. It is we who stray away from HIm and choose to not love HIm.
But He is waiting for the day that you will look to HIm because He loves you.
I have no idea about who you are… But God knows you even before your substance was formed in your mother’s womb ! Thats what the Bible says !!
Think about it Lisa….
There is a God who loves you if though you never cared about HIm…
Are you willing to trust in HIm at least know ?
Are you willing to get to know HIm ?
He is there …waiting for you .. His forgiveness and His healing is yours to claim….If you believe.
God Bless
In Christ,
SS

Hi Lisa, Congrats!!!
This congrats is for the defying the set logic for facing the incurable. For fighting the unfightable.
I want to tell you a small story, I am 40 years old, and i have abused my body with heavy smoking for almost 20 years and also working in most polluted environment.
I have this problem of ankle pain which i cant pin point, (it has faced many industrial accidents) I have shown it many doctors only in vain. Until I met this Famous doctor Srinivas in Bangalore, who took me arround his hospital to meet his patients. at end he said “is your problems are worser than any of these patients” he continued ” There is nothing phisically wrong that can be corrected with your leg, so better live with the problem. Infact that made me more stronger and started facing the pain than crying with pain. That made my life simpler and less painfull.
What i wanted to say here is for every problems, we have two answers.
1. Some thing we can try to resolve
2. Some thing we can’t do anything about
if it can be solved, we can put all our energy in to resolvin the problem. If it cant be solved, instead of crying over just make the best of what is left out.
This is what i have adopted in my life. Since last one year i am also have this arthritis problem which has made my knees weak, to make it worse, my weight is always on higher side with with a extra large waist line.
i have always been a workoholic, i go crazy sitting idle, but the present condition really scared me. Cant reduce my weight with out workout and cant work out with this weak knee.
then started hunt for medication. Technically speaking there is no cure for arthritis other than joint replacement.
tried homeopathy also. Nothing seem to be working.
Listen to me carefully now. My cousin told me try ALOE VERA, I was not very keen to untill i heard speach by BABA RAMDEV, A Yogic Sage who is also running a ayurvedic research center. (I have never met him in person till date) who said ALOE VERA TAKEN INTERNALLY HAS A wonderful result.
Then being a internet savy person did some research on ALOE VERA. Came to know that it directly works with blood on increasing the imunity part. Just gave it a try. In weeks time, there was a drastic change in my knees strngth. and i could do my brisk walking up to 1 hour without any pain or tiredness. now its since 4 weeks i started this. i have reduced my weight and also feeling lot better.
ALOE VERA DOESNT HAVE SPECIFIC CURE. BUT IT WORKS ON IMMUNITY. WHY DONT YOU TRY IT. I AM PRETTY SURE YOU WONT REGRET IT.
Incase you opt to try, dont take any medicines made out of it. Take the raw one. Peel it, extract the sticky get stuff beneath the surface of skin, Have directly or
I grind it with spoon of sugar and water. and gulp it at one shot.
Sorry for this long mail. This is the first time i have written in anyblogs. I felt the need to as soon as i heard your reaction to the problems you are facing.
ALL THE BEST and Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Lisa,
There is a spiral therapist called Jatin Chaudry from Delhi. He has cured many people including the likes of Sachin, Yuvraj and Sania Mirza. He basically regenerates the cells through spiral therapy and has cured many people from the third stage of cancer.You can do a google and also check the information about him. I am however also attaching a latest article of him.
Jatin Chaudhary, the spiral therapy specialist
February 6, 2009
Ever wondering who Jatin Chaudhary is ? Well, you only need to ask Sania Mirza, Yuvraj Singh, Sachin Tendulkar and a few others. They owe a lot of gratitude to him as he cured them of their injuries. Sania Mirza last year had missed out a lot due to her wrist injury and Jatin got her back into working condition in a short time. It was Yuvraj Singh who had recommended Jatin Chaudhary to Sania Mirza .
It seems to have worked wonders on Sania Mirza. The latest injury that she had i.e the stomach tear , has been successfully treated by Jatin.
Dr.Jatin specialises in a treatment called spiral therapy which has a korean origin. Jatin is armed with a Phd and has been trained in Italy. This therapy involves the regeneration of cells. His successfull treatment of Sania and others has given him international fame and is now flooded with calls. We called him at the numbers we managed to get, but he seem to be having real busy days given the patients flocking to his clinic.
Dr. Jatin can be contacted at his Model Town Clinic.
Address is as below

Dear Lisa,
Cancer in any form is completely curable if diagnosed at the right stage. (your stage seems to be right)
You just needs to change the therapies. You can get help from Ayurvedic healing, spiritual healing, angel therapy and letting go of karmic impressions of the past. In spirituality it is said that at first the problems start in soul then it reflects in body. Healing the thought process in a way that you draw only physical healing will help you be blessed with good health soon.
In angel guidance it is believed that unforgiveness is the cause of cancer. Letting go will help you come out of issues that are not letting you be cured from this disease. You need to undergo past life regression to let go your past issues. If you can send us your date of birth, time of birth and place of birth at info@astrosagar.com or astrosagar@gmail.com we will be pleased to help you.
As a policy we do not charge for astrology and angelic guidance for health issues on our site.

The Journey
One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice–
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
“Mend my life!”
each voice cried.
But you didn’t stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do–
determined to save
the only life you could save.
-Mary Oliver

hello lisa i am a fan of yours..i have seen u since my childhood..and still remember u featuring in nusraf fateh ali khan video…and since u r related to my childhood,i strongly feel that u should not suffer..
i think ur cancer can be cured..
Please do Kapaalbhati pranayaam daily for 30 minutes in the morning..
Before pranayaam u r not supposed to eat for 3 hours..so morning time would be the best for it,after u get up..and after completion of pranayaam u r not supposed to eat any thing for another 20 minutes..and if possible visit any patanjali clinic(baba ramdev’s)…
I am no agent of any body..im a normal person…

Dear Lisa,
I kept asking God why me??……until I read the newspaper this morning…
All of 31 yrs n hardly married for a year and the docs tell me that I have Ulcerative Colitis(UC) and Diabetes. I have been put on steroids to fight the UC for almost a year now and just when I am about to feel better and on the last tapered dose of steroid my eyes become blurry!
Last night the doc said I have steroid induced cataract and need a lens replacement! God, what more do You have in store for me??!!
I woke up this morning with a bout of depression and read about you. Now I am staring into nowhere as a few self answering questions and thoughts cross my mind…..
May God give us, not just you and me but all the less fortunate ones, the strength to fight the rude shocks in our lives.
-Sri
Greetings Lisa.
Hearing your news has given me a thought of helping you. Not that you dont have many people already to give you their best, but if you have time do read below –
Fighting this disease naturally is the best way to go about it without harming your body and sanctity or quality of life.
Having seen my parents and grandparent go through the same and my mother being a firm believer in alternative medicine and a practitioner with her complete devotion to her prayers is a cancer survivor.
Hope you, whom so ever it may be, look into this realm and help yourself.
With best wishes and god bless.

Don’t you worry. God will always be with you .
Hi Lisa,

Hi Lisa,
I was really sad after reading the news on MSN yesterday and knowing about a beautiful actress suffering from an incurable cancer.
But at the same time, it’s nice to know about your positive attitude towards the disease and your spreading awareness about it. If you really believe that this disease can be cured, then one day you will surely be cured. But it all depends upon your determination too.
And, there must be supportive actions too, to eradicate even the last trace of this cancer from your body.
One proven way to remove cancer from one’s body is by going VEGAN (i.e. being on a diet free from animal fats and proteins). Going Vegan means you must only eat purely vegetarian diet and must not consume dairy products, honey, eggs and other non-vegetarian food stuff at all. Many researchers have proved vegan diet to be the most healthy diet in this world and have established the fact that people consuming this diet are free from all cancers, kidney damage, osteoporosis, coronary heart failure and many other diseases. To know about the vegan diet, please also refer to the following link:
http://www.vegan.org/about_veganism/health.html
I have also heard about one case of Kidney cancer in which the girl got rid of every trace of this cancer after adopting the vegan diet.
And if you also adopt this dietary style, it would surely help you in treating yourself of this incurable disease.
Further, this most healthy dietary lifestyle is supported in a best way, if it is followed with yoga and meditation.
So go ahead and throw our the cancer from you beautiful and gifted body.
My best wishes are with you….
Take care
I won’t say sad to hear that, but I am sure you have the strength to fight it out.
Please start Pranayam and I am sure you will get completely cured.
All the best
get well soon
Please don’t take Velcade. It has a high incidence of peripheral neuropathy. Where do you live? Is it possible to come to the US and get on a carfilzomib clinical trial? It is similar to Velcade but very few side-effects. If you have no choice but to take Velcade, please take it in combo (Revlimid, Dexamethasone) and only take Velcade once a week. This really cuts down the neuropathy incidence.
You are so young – aren’t you eligible for transplant?
nothing is permanent
oops forgot to tell..do not do kapaalbhaati for more than 30 minutes…other wise u will develop serious complications in ur body(internal bleeding etc.)
cheers.. 🙂
Hi Lisa,
It’s good to see u are taking this in great spirit. And all i can say is I can relate and understand what you are going through as i have been through the journey myself in 2007…i call it a journey and not a fight or survival as this journey revealed a wonderful world within and out there for me.
My teacher says ” Nothing is impossible…we make possible impossible so lets make impossible possible”
I don’t believe in the word ‘Incurable’. It’s a matter of divine trust, faith, prayers, intervention and a UNDETTERED WILL TO LIVE …No matter what ppl, Doctors or the world says or believes in. That’s what sailed me through it 🙂
I can share alot many alternate therapies i followed along with the treatment that made the journey easier if you wld care for them.
One thing i truly believe and know for a fact is …. while NO doctors have any definite cause for Cancer of any kind it’s only true cause is storing ” DEEP RESENTMENT, ANGER and HURT “within ur system for years. Do dive within and explore this and heal it from the roots. Cause that will make ur healing faster.’FORGIVE FORGIVE FORGIVE’ people, situations that caused the pain within. Talk to ur body and ask why is it rebelling …u will get ur answers and what it really wants ! 🙂
Do read “You can Heal ur Life ” – By Louise Hay
” the Journey ” – Brandon Bays
“The Secret ” – By Rondha Byrne
Can share alot more if ur keen . Leave me a personal email id on my blog will write to you.
Till then wish u a speedy healing and shall definitely include u in my prayers …they always help 🙂

Payal

hi lisa
request you to do the part 1 course of http://www.artofliving.org/ it involves this
http://www.artofliving.org/intl/Programmes/tabid/55/Default.aspx
god bless ya (whichever god u follow)
we are all part of one consciousness!!!
I agree. My friends mother who is also suffering from multiple myloma is doing well with ‘wheat grass juice’ apart from other medicines.
Hey Lisa,
I am very sorry to hear about this…..I would love to see you get better….What I going to say is something that can help, but it takes time.
1. Try changing your diet to a vegetarian diet….no meat at all! Meat is actually something I have stopped eating all together…..it has been proven to be the cause of many cancers and diseases.
2. Meditate —– Yoga, all kinds every day. It does work!
3. Eat a lot of fruits…..ethnic indian fruits such as muraba of amla, and other natural strong ones,etc for strenght and to clean your body of all impurities!
4. Sleep Hard and Pray peacefully everyday!
5. Do something creative…..and don’t stress!
5. Get a good counselor….friend who will be gentle with you.
6. Herbal remedies????? Seek them out.
You and only you can cure yourself….do it naturally. Miracles do happen and they will with you….Just don’t lose hope.
There could be some good medical treatments out there, but I beleve that 90% of the cure will come from you life style changes.
God bless!!!!

Dear Lisa,
Cancer like any other disease is curable. However, the requirement is timely diagnosis and the faith and desire for getting cured. In spirituality it is generally understood that the Universe is governed by the law of attraction. Human life is also subject to cosmic push and pulls. It is said that we send our samples to heavens and heaven sends us the complete consignment. Our consignment will depend on our thoughts that we give to God.
There is abundance of everything in this world. It is only the inclination of thought that makes us choose happiness or suffering. God gives us the choice in this universe to choose what we want; he is the benevolent father who wants our best. However, the grace of God can only be understood by the grace of Sadguru (Ascendant Master).
The best affirmation that one can give to God arises from gratitude “Thanks for taking care of me, loving me and in helping me solve my problems, I feel that my problems are getting over and I am on the path of happiness”. One should imagine that he or she is safe and is taken care of by God, Sadguru and Angels. This sends a strong signal to heavens and God is able to guide everybody to safety.
You need to also try alternative healings like Ayurveda, yoga and spiritual healing. In angel guidance it is generally believed that lack of forgiveness is the cause of Cancer. If a person is not able to come out of some past experience of guilt towards self or others or the person is not able to release this guilt it can lead to cancer. However, many a times the root to such guilt lies in previous births. In techniques like past life regression the soul can be helped to release past life issues by proper chord cutting from such past life negative experiences. The more you are ready to release guilt and be forgiving the faster will spiritual healing work for you.
You can contact us at info@astrosagar.com and astrosagar@gmail.com for further information on this. If you can give us details like date of birth, time of birth and place of birth. We can give you astrological reasons based on Vedic astrology to help you understand the karmic issues that are leading to Cancer. We will also guide you on how you can combat this disease.

Dear Liza,
I’m one of your fans..always admired you and loved your movies.. I loved the most your bollywood movie Kasoor as well as Water, you’re a so talented actress but my question is: why didn’t u do lots of bollywood movies?! You’re far better than lots of bollywood actresses and I love to see you with Shahrukh Khan.. you’ll do a great pair onscreen.
Liza: I admired you although I didn’t know anything about u except that you’re half indian.. admired u because u r charming and a strong woman.. so you’ll for sure defeat this illness and you’ll win.. you must not lose hope and a part of the treatment is just to “ignore” it and never feel weakness.. that would help you out.
I wish you all the best and that u overcome this problem.. and in future, please do some bollywood movies and with Shahrukh or Aamir Khan.
Hey Lisa,
I appreciate the way you are handling your health issue. You did come across as a strong person both physically and mentally during our short association while filming ‘Takkari Donga’. i am sure you will win as long as you stay the way you are. Please do not ever let go the belief that you will overcome this. There are a million hands and hearts out there who will be there for you at all times.
with warm regards

hey .. I’m sad . but I’ll pray to god to cure you from this disease 🙂 ..
have wonderful time
Hello Lisa,
It is early in the morning 5:20 and I am having my peaceful coffee and reading the Globe, your story. I know of your cancer, my father had it and passed away at 61 in 1989. He had been diagnosed for 8 years, which at the time they told me, was the maximum anyone survived.
From 89 to now, it sounds by your article that there are new techniques and drugs. How wonderful!
I wish you wellness and recovery.
hei..ull be ok..fit and fine soon 🙂 🙂
You will be fine, i will pray for you to God. We love you a lot.
Hi
Sad to hear, but cheer up.
I would strongly suggest that you should take Nutrilite Iron & Folic. Also do add Nutrilite Protien Powder. Each nite take one Nutrilite Bone Health. Within 4 months you would notice a change.
Good luck Lisa, we love you and sure you’d become okay.
I don’t know what modern doctors say about ur cancer, but here’s an article out of Reader’s Digest which should help, see it at my blog. It’s inspirational, don’t give up 🙂
You Can Retrain Your Brain
http://www.nikrusty.com/2009/06/you-can-retrain-your-brain.html
It is very sad that sucessful people get this kind of disease. I am praying for GOD that give me some disease because i am unsuccessful in my life, but i am becomming healthy day by day. Even though i am IT Engineer but i am unsuccessful in my life.
Lisa:
I appreciate your humor and ability to laugh at yourself. Keep it up. But I have changed my opinion and feel that MM is not a life threatening disease after my recent personal experience. I am a director in an American Company, stationed at Bangalore and the patient who is my father-in-law is a former World Bank employee.
My father-in-law (80 years) was diagnosed with MM last November after a series of tests for almost a month. He refused to get treated for MM the conventional way. Fortunately, my wife got in touch with a person who works with a retired professor of IISc, Bangalore to formulate herbal treatments for various cancers. He started treatment almost within 2-3 days of the diagnosis. Treatment involves injections, both intravenous and intra muscular (IV and IM), based herbal medication and other supplementary oral medication. These medicines are on trial and being administrated by accepted clinical means & by conventional nursing staff. The drug is awaiting a patent on the formulation (UK patent).
You must be getting a lot of advise and suggestions on alternative treatments and having a tough time making sense of it. Still, I must give you my first hand opinion on this as I have directly been a participant in the treatment of my father-in-law.
The treatment has worked wonders. My father-in-law has not taken any pain killer since diagnosis or any other allopathic medication for MM or related symptoms. He lost a lot of weight, but has now regained most of it. He has not been given any blood transfusion till now (almost an year from when he was hospitalised for the symptoms). The active portion of treatment lasted for about 8 weeks, but he is still under supervision and maintanance treatment. His ESR, Hbg & Bence Jonce Protein levels are also very much improved. He, who could not move even for a short distance at diagnosis time, is walking 4-5Kms now and is on normal diet. His allopathic doctor (who diagnosed him and who still monitors him) had predicted a poor prognosis is amazed as he was expecting frequent blood transfusions at the minimum and a quick dip in the wellbeing.
I sincerely would suggest you to consider this cure (not just a palliative treatment). The person who is administrating this medication is Mr. T.P. Francis in Bangalore (email: tpfrancis3@yahoo.com). He is wonderful person with a great background in Ayurveda, though he is a mechanical engineer by training. You can also write or speak to my wife. My email is kumarmn@hotmail.com.
Wishing you a great recovery and looking forward to a seeing you in a good comedy.
Cheers
Kumar

HI Lisa..
Great to see so much courage in u .. Keep fighting .. you will have a great and long life ahead.
Hi Lisa ,
I am actually a big fan of yours , Although i dont watch movies that regularly but still I love to watch you in the movies ,
It really hurt me when I heard that you have Mylomea and read your blog on Internet .
I just want to share that I was really depressed after I lost my dad after he suffered a Cardiac arrest , It was mainly bcoz of his life stlye and no much interest in Health matters , \
I just had a tough time as I aslo was a victim of this , I took up to brathing excersies from CD aviable and made it a point to change all my smoking habits , I am also learning that Pranaya gives amazing benefits for most of incurrable diseases , I am expereincing the same now .
I suggest you take up for your health , becoz that improves youe cell count and nourishes the RBC & WBC count ..
God Bless ,
Hi lisa
I know it will be tough but there are many foods you can incorporate in your diet like broccoli and cabbage which have cancer fighting properties.
I saw of many alternative medicines but many of those information does not have so much studies to support it.
The one which i see is quite credible is the one where many newspaper reports where made which showed a man in 80’s who managed to live longer than the doctor expected by taking some broccoli juice.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1036857/Broccoli-juice-helps-patient-beat-bladder-cancer.html
Another is of the model Kris Carr whom i saw on Oprah. She is in remission for 5 years and is still healthy.

Another treatment Hoxsey Therapy is the one below

I like this man too who is quite inspiring. I remember i used to follow him up till he died . he had a blog too. i saw his youtube lecture as well.

It seems red ginseng, wheatgrass juice, papaya and pinapple, soursop all helps

hi lisa
being a med student i know the gravity of this condition , saw few cases of MM
i am still shocked , it is very rare disease and that too in young age is really shocking.
just stick to chemo regimens do not waste time on any other meds as mentioned above
………………..and most important thing do not loose HOPE
praying 4 u
Hello to the flower of divinity.
Lots of posts here, and I don’t know if you find any sense in reading the comments posted by your fans. Well you should then. 🙂
A Catholic doctor in Bombay, Mr Newman, is suffering from this same health defect. His platelets went down drastically. Career-wise, he was almost the President of a major garment industry in India. He had to quit it. Now, with alternative healing, he is on the go and recovering pretty well. Positive energy heals. All the water you drink in a day, and used to cook your food, has to be supercharged. Charged with positivity. Buy a ‘biodisc’ from someone in Canada, which will cost you not more than USD 500. For a demo, keep it under your pillow and rest for an hour. And see the way your body will respond. It will sure put you back on the track of recovery. It’s almost 2010, and it should be ignorant of someone to think that this particular health defect would not heal.
It’s an alternative healing, which means you should of course keep your medicines on. And what more, you can claim those USD 500 from me if things don’t work, which is wrong. Is it supposed to be this difficult to convince a Hollywood megastar? 😉
I’ll be around.
-Johnson.
Our prayers are with you for a quick and complete recovery. Have faith and keep fighting. I’m sure you will come out of this a victor.
Lisa
Five years ago, my wife was diagnosed with Stage III MM. Thanks to the fantastic people at Princess Margaret Hospital, she is still going as strong as ever and most days does more and has more energy that do I.
It has not always been easy, if there is a treatment or a complication, she seems to have experienced it. However, the result has been more than we ever dared to dream. Three weeks ago she held her first Grandchild, five years ago we would have never dared to think that such a day would be possible and moments such as these tend to make the memories of the difficulties to have been hurdles and never barriers.
I read with interest your comments relating to the support that you receive from your Father. If I may, I would like to make one suggestion to both of you. Your closest Care Givers are also part of the effect of MM. As you are both becoming aware, dealing with Multiple Myeloma is a marathon event. The focus rightfully will be on you, as the patient, never-the-less your Father will also feel effects that will be difficult to balance together with his concern for you. If he is like most Care Givers, he will manage with his effects silently and in the shadows of your treatment.
Let him know that he too is not alone.
Take care and maybe we will see you at the PMH Myeloma Clinic…….Welcome to the Club.
Darryl
Hey Lisa,
I never write anywhere, but reading through your blog felt the need to support you in some way possible. And the only way i could think off is writing few words.
Sorry to hear the diagnosis but you really are a brave girl. I appreciate the courage you have in you. Being a doctor by profession i have seen patients who loose theirs hearts with the diagnosis but you never did so . You gathered all the courage to fight it. Hats off …
There are quite a few pipeline drug for treatment of multiple myeloma. Tenespemycin, a HSP 90 inhibitor in one which is in final stages of development. Discuss this drug with your oncologist and look for probability of use in your situation.
Wish you a complete recovery….Take care… Chao
Please Please please look for natural ways of curing such a dieases & for that please trust & dedicatadly follow URINE THEROPY. It is the only one can cure such dieases.
Hi Lisa,
Please go for self Urine theropy as it has no side effects.
you can continue parellal with your medical treatments.
It is proved scintifically. it can cure such dieases.
hi lisa,
i pray to GOD that you will become healthy again as soon as possible..
May God will Bless you.
I never followed your blogs, but the attitude which you’ve shown is definitely wonderful enough to give you many more new followers.
The length of life is not decided by the number of years you live but by the number of useful and happy moments you’ve had. You’ll definitely live very long..
My best wishes for you.
Hi Lisa u r a strong persona and it’s only your inner strength and mental toughness that is being tested…..being diagnosed at a young age and with hottest discoveries in the field of stem cells and bone marrow transplants it will not be long when u will get rid of this scary ailment…..remember tough times never last but tough people do……myself an ardent admirer of your persona prays to the Almighty not to decimate an angelic persona from the surface of this planet…..
God bless you
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)
A PSALM OF LIFE
TELL me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream ! —
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
Life is real ! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal ;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way ;
But to act, that each to-morrow
Find us farther than to-day.
Art is long, and Time is fleeting,
And our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffled drums, are beating
Funeral marches to the grave.
In the world’s broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle !
Be a hero in the strife !
Trust no Future, howe’er pleasant !
Let the dead Past bury its dead !
Act,— act in the living Present !
Heart within, and God o’erhead !
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time ;
Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o’er life’s solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Let us, then, be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate ;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait…
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Good Luck & God Bless.
Lisa,
I too suffer from a very rare blood disorder, much different than yours however no less life changing. I too am treated at Princess Margaret Hospital which every time I walk through her doors feels like a warm embrace. I too live in the Beaches, directly south of the Pie Shack halfway to the lake. It’s a small world. Thanks for sharing your journey and your words. See you on the street.

Hello Lisa.. below is some health tips.. and hope that you’ll take them into your consideration
1) drink a glass of water morning, when u wakeup, and wait for 45 minutes, then have your breakfast ( u can drink sometimes warm water mixed with lemon i/o of plain water.. I read on the net that it’s good for the blood)
2) concentrate on eating vegetable & fruits and avoid frying stuff, oily and heavy food.
3) take daily 1 table spoon of a pure honey, as well as garlic sometimes and would be better to take honey on an empty stomach.

Dear Lisa,
I won’t start saying “sorry to hear that”,but I am glad to read that your are optimistic. I have been undergone something similar ( A rare White Blood cell problem) in my life at very young age of 22. When everybody hoped that I would die eventually, against every odd, I survived.I am sure if you trust your god and keep this positive attitude throughout the course of treatment,you will survive every step.
Heres’ wishing you all the very best in your battle ahead. I wish to see you doing more of meaningful movies in future ahead.
Regards
Surbhi

Hi Lisa,
I recently met you at the Miss India America pageant in Los Angeles, CA and I wasn’t aware of your illness then.
I read it in the papers yesterday and broke down.
I am very sorry to hear about what you have to go through.
No one will ever know the pain you go through except you.
And I pray that you fight through this.
If I may add – God gives such things to man, only when he knows that they are strong enough & fully capable of handling it.
Hugs,
Me.
hello liza
I know what u feel at this time even if u dont express it, there is alot written by people here but in the end “what has to happen will happen” good or bad all we can do is to really prepare our self for the end and attach ourself more and more to god[christ\ram..etc] thus making the end a peacfull journey rather than a painfull departure.
I pray to god for ur health as that is all i can do for u rest is upon him.
plz take care.
Dear Lisa,
I have always been floored by your looks, but now you floor me with you courage.
Wish you all the best, if at all I can you anything
Best Wishes

सम्माननीय लिसा रे मुझे आज न्यूज़ पेपर द्वारा ज्ञात हुआ है की आपको जून से भी पहले से कैंसर था. मैं अपने ज्ञान से (इश्वर के आशीर्वाद से ) आपको एक उपाय इस लाइलाज बीमारी से निजात पाने के लिए दे रहा हु .किसी भी रविवार सूर्य देवता को जल चढाने के बाद में यह कहना है की मेरा सभी काम देखने वाले करने वाले और कराने वाले सभी कुछ आप ही हैं ,आप ही सब करता हो और आप ही मेरी इस बीमारी को भी हर लेंगे और इसके हल के लिए आप के उचित मार्ग दर्शन में साडे तीन माह में समाप्त हो जायेगी और इसके हल स्वरुप में अपने किसी एक बुरी आदत को हमेशा के लिए छोड़ देने का संकल्प लेकर उसे छोड़ दे . यह प्रार्थना हर रोज एक बार सूर्य को जल चढ़ने के पश्यत अवश्य करें .
Dear Lisa,
I love you and love your courage, determination and resolve to fight this cancer. I have always loved your work, your movies and photos (yeah I got ton of them). I think you are one of the most beautiful women I have seen. It saddens me to no end to know about this cancer. But I am sure you will fight it with your tremendous will power. I sincerely pray that you brave this storm and rise like a phoenix. Keep us posted on your progress.
Love,
Akshay
Hi Lisa,
I remember you so clearly from the cover article we did about you back in 02 or 03 at Elm Street magazine. You were just starting into more serious roles, destined for great things, and Water was the proof of that.
Here’s wishing you strength, courage and above all – recovery. Meantime, hold your head high on the red carpet in your wetsuit. This town adores you and supports you fully.
All the best to you.
Wish you all the best, and prayers for your recovery . . .
Hey Lisa!!
Just read this.
Very unfortunate, but at the same time, felt good about how took the road ahead. I tell you, its this courage that takes us.
Wish you all the very best.
May God bestow all love & courage to you.

Hey Lisa,
First of all a big hug to you.
You are an extremely brave girl with the determination to beat the monster, and what is more, try to bring awareness about it to everyone. I am sure that will definitely help others who find themselves in a similar situation.
Having lost several family members to various cancers (including an aunt to AML) I do understand in a small way the trauma you and your close ones are going through. My advice (I am sorry, you may be getting plenty and may have had enough already) is to understand that each day is precious in our lives.
Sadly, we come to realize it only when such a trauma strikes our lives, but the truth is that even when well, each day is precious to us. We need to treasure each and every day that God has given us, and to enjoy and make full use of it.
May you receive God’s blessings.
Shalini
I learned I had MM at the age of 41, which was almost 7 years ago. Many of us have written about our experiences. I hope it’s ok that I put a link to your blog on our Myeloma Planet.
Hey Lisa,
You truly are something. Hats off to you. Everything will be just fine for you lke it has been always.
BRAVEHEART! Wish I had fractions of your courage.
Hi Lisa, I pray to god that your disease to be cured as soon as possible. Take care of yourself.
God bless you 🙂
Cheers,
Bala.
Hi Lisa,
How are you doing sweety. It has been such a good thing that a person as sweet and beautiful lives among us. You have been a fascination for me since I was a kid. It pains to hear about you diagnosis.
I am still a naive guy as far as education of myeloma is concerned. But I would like to know if this is more prevalent in Canada than other nations. I am talking in terms of statistics. And if the same can be used to derive a pattern for this disease. And may be than this pattern can be used to check, prevent or cure this disease. I am not a medical guy or a scientist. I am an IT guy. But I look at the world with lot of optimism.
Another thing I would like to bring to light is the fact about how people who are fit and fine, misusing their lives in drugs, smoking, alcohol and prejudiced animosity. These people have to realize that life is there to be celebrated and respected.
Sweety my best wishes are for you and all the prayers as well. You are a good person and you will get well soooooooooooon.
Lots of Hugs n Kisses
Atul
Dear Friend ,
When my mother was going thru treatment, I used to smile at cashier who gets angry for not tendering the exact amount at pharmacy. We realized how insignificant the most things around us are .
Sometimes we cannot direct the wind but we can adjust the sails… or may be we can find new directions..
Life provides us with only opportunities. I believe the best in you is yet to be seen
All the best .
You are a brave lady, a real inspiration to girls being girls.
Love and Prayers.
Hina
She did a single movie in bollywood and i am her fan from that time. I would pray for her.
May GOD give her healthy life.
Thanks
Dear Lisa,
I know a lot mails are pouring in for you since the news broke about your illness from across the globe and the silver lining is that everyone (caste, religion, skin texture , geographical location always take back sit during the crisis time!) is praying from their heart for your recovery .
You need to understand this silver lining that prayers are answered when it is being done from deep inside of us and when we feel so helpless in life …..the divine gets into the action! Believe in it..Just a clue …The Epic Mahabharat
.. The Gamble …The Helplessness of Draupadi..the rest you know!
Now coming to realistic solution to this illness , kindly get in touch with any ” ART OF LIVING CENTER ” where you are residing presently and do talk any of the teachers and pl under go the SUDARSHAN KRIYA – A Unique BREATHING Techniques developed by Pooja Gurudev Sri Sri Ravishakarji.
They have center all across the globe – International ashram @ Bangalore.
Sudharshana Kriya, The Power of the Breath:
The Sudarshan Kriya, a powerful rhythmic breathing technique that facilitates physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being is an integral part of the Art of Living programs. It is today universally acclaimed for its effectiveness in eliminating stress, and bringing one completely into the present moment. As HH Sri Sri Ravi Shankar puts it, the Sudarshan Kriya came to him like an inspiration to bridge the gap between the worlds of inner silence, and outer expression of life.
Nature is replete with various rhythms, and cycles – day follows night, night follows day, seasons come and go. Similarly, there are biological rhythms to our bodies, minds, and emotions. When these rhythms are in sync, we feel a sense of harmony, and well-being. When stress or illness throws them out of order, we experience discomfort, and discontent and feel upset, and unhappy.
‘Su’ means proper, ‘darshan’ means vision, and ‘Kriya’ is a purifying practice. The Sudarshan Kriya is therefore a purifying practice, whereby one receives a proper vision of one’s true self. This unique breathing practice is a potent energizer. Every cell becomes fully oxygenated, and flooded with new life, bringing a sense of joy in the moment. And when we feel good about ourselves, love flows naturally in all our relationships with others.
The rhythmic breathing pattern of Sudarshan Kriya harmonizes the rhythms of the body, and emotions, and brings them in tune with the rhythms of nature. The breath connects the body, and mind. Just as emotions affect our patterns of breathing, we can bring about changes in our mental, and behavioural patterns by altering the rhythms of our breath. It flushes our anger, anxiety, and worry; leaving the mind completely relaxed, and energized.
The results of Sudarshan Kriya have surprised the medical fraternity across the world.
This one for you……………………………..
‘My cancer disappeared’
A doctor from Germany was suffering from metastatic cancer that had spread to her brain and liver when she came to attend her first Art of Living program. She did the course lying down. Two courses later, the cancer had disappeared. Being a doctor, she was requested to explain this. She suggested that possibly, the Sudarshan Kriya and meditation cleared her cells off stresses, leaving the layer of consciousness (or energy) surrounding those cells; which in turn, penetrated deep into her DNA.
Independent medical research has documented the benefits of the technique, including alleviation of depression and heightened awareness and creativity.
* Studies have demonstrated significant falls in cortical levels, known as the ‘stress hormone’ among Sudarshan Kriya practitioners, suggesting greater levels of both, relaxation and resilience to stress.
* A study by All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Delhi, concluded that regular practice of the Sudarshan Kriya invokes positive emotions, replacing anger, frustration and jealousy.
* It’s also found that it improves the blood cholesterol profile with significant drops in total cholesterol and LDL (harmful) cholesterol, as well as increases in HDL (beneficial) cholesterol.
Sri Sri on the Sudarshan Kriya:
“I was already teaching meditation, and yoga. But I felt there was something that was lacking. Though people do their spiritual practices, their life is in a sort of a compartment. They do their prayers, meditation, and spiritual practices but when they come out in life, they are very different people. So, I was thinking how can we bridge this gap – between inner silence, and outer expression of life. During a period of silence, the Sudarshan Kriya came like an inspiration. After I came out of the silence, I started teaching whatever I knew, and people had great experiences.”

Dear Lisa,
I am 34 yrs old and i have had a crush on you when i saw your picture for the first time. I am really saddened upon hearing about your health. I hope that you will recover soon and i will pray for your good health.
May god bless you and give you and your family the strength during these trying times.

Hi,
Your Cancer will be cured.
A suggestion i don’t know whether it will reach you?
But a small suggestion for you, visit this website http://www.pyroenergen.com
I wish if I had the money for this machine I would cure your cancer and help the poor.
But I know for sure your cancer will be cured.
Do not take tension only thing have your medication on time without fail.
By any chance you read this message say a Hi to me on my email id.
Rgds,
Harshika
I am really sad and depressed with this news, but the strong woman in you that we all fans know of and the love & support of all of us will make this look like just a bad dream for you. If there is anything in this world that would make you feel better then let it be my prayer to God to give you the remaining time of my life to you and heal you. This world needs Lisa more than an unknown individual like me.
God bless you!
Hi Lisa,
I still remember the first time i saw u on tv. It was in nusrat fateh ali khans’ vidoe.(I hope i got the singer’s name right). Wooooow. you looked and still look absolutely gorgeous. I wish you the best in fighting this battle against the cancer that you have. They say it is easier to fight an enemy when you can understand the enemy as best as you can. So I hope you will learn about the disease you have and figure out what you can do beyond what doctors and medicines can do for you. I am a die hard optimist. And the human body being as it is there is not set rule as to how it should behave. So I am hoping you will show the world that Multiple Myeloma just may be treatable. and meanwhile enjoy life and fight as hard as you can and I am sure you will win.
Dear Lisa,
You are really very fortunate to have so many people who are praying for you. Am sure this cohesive energy which is directed towards you is rejuvenating every cell in your body which in turn is fueling your fighting spirit.
You have the power and the reach to your audience and fans, who are supporting you even as u don’t know them. This is the Grace of God and His blessings that are coming to you in so many unique ways. And i know you must be truly thankful.
I lost my father to MM 9yrs ago, and i wish i had more channels to figure out what more we could do for him. We were young and naive then, and didn’t know how to channelize our resources.
I read most of the posts on your blog and i wish i had this trove of information then. Anyway, many alternative therapies suggested above may have answers. One thing i realized what modern medicine lacked was, it sapped you of the energy, which i thought was very vital in overall well being.
In the ‘junior’ stages, one doest really lack the drive or the energy. Speaking from a personal experience, i saw my father do a lot in the first year of treatment. leading a life as good as normal and maybe having higher levels of grit n determination. He actually successfully supervised a complete construction of your holiday home single-handedly. My father too belonged to the ‘A’ type personality.
its the eventual slow degradation of the bones that can be challenging and then followed the various complications with the changes in weather conditions…the monsoons in Bombay being the worst enemy, with bouts of double pneumonia that were setbacks in the chemo cycles , as infections lowered the hemoglobin levels and left the body unfit for the next cycle. It became a vicious circle.
Am just sharing this with you so that you can be aware and not take your body for granted, at times like this keep it healthy so it can fight what it really needs to fight.
If U believe in Prayers and Miracles, then maybe you would want to consider the unconventional methods some of your well-wishers have suggested.
It has always been quite difficult for me to address my loss without an emotional ending, but tonite as i write this i am feeling a little lighter, and i thank you for healing me in a small way. I hope i have done justice to this cause that concerns not only you and me, but to many others who have suffered directly or indirectly.
Wishing you speedy recovery.

Hi Lisa,
I normally don’t go on the blog, but read your blog and felt that I should write.
This long week edn I went to Montreal and visited a lady’s house where oil from the Statue of Our Lady ( Mother of Jesus Christ ) flows.
I was given the oil and I have it with me and it is my strong faith that if I give you the oil and you apply it on your body you will surely get cured.
TRUST IN THE LORD AND HE WILL WORK WONDERS.
If you need the oil pls let me know and I can send it to you.
KEEP FAITH AND YOU WILL GET CURED IN NO TIME.
I will pray for you.
Take care and all the best.
hey lisa ,
all d best for your treatment !!
jus keep up the positive attitude n faith …i m sure u vill be perfectly fine .
eat well n take care
get well soon 🙂
Hi,

Have a Speedy Recovery

Dear Lisa:
When I saw u for first time.. I admired your character and your face.. your feature.. and I used to say that I find myself in you.. don’t know why! now I found out the reason because just now I knew that you were born on April 4.. means u r “Aries” and me too.. I was born on April 2.
Aries girl is so brave, got the guts to say whatever she wants and never fears anything.. never gives a damn what people would think or say behind her back.. aries girls r so emotional and very faithfull when they fall in love.. when the aries girl falls in love.. then she can’t see anyone else.. she falls deeply, truly, madley.. that’s u and me too.. Aries girl got a self dignity and never forgive her lover if he betrayed her even if he was the centre and the most important part of her life.. and would leave him immediately.. aries girl would rather live alone and independant than living with a man whom she can’t be happy with.. love is her life.. that’s u and me Lisa Ray.. therefore I admired you.. always.
25 years ago my friend was diagnosed with cancer and given months to live. She chose to stand and fight. She’s still here. Keep fighting Lisa. Cancer is no longer the life- bully it used to be. And your attitude is an excellent cancer fighter. Incidentally, my friend got the help of the Biomedical institute, a natural cancer treatment center in Mexico. There contact info is below, just in the event you should need them. All the best.

Lisa,
Our Best wishes with you. Your Spirit and determination will be a milestone for others. Wish you a very speedy recovery
Lisa.
The cure is unknown because it is not known and each human life is unique. Your healing abilities could be quite different. besides all medicines look into yourself within deeply everyday and healing happens on it own. try energy healing http://www.quantumtouch.com. it is simple and works. Least your journey becomes peaceful in the pain.
God bless you..
Lisa, Lisa, Lisa,
first,
my PEACE of mind,
the LOVE in and of my heart,
and HAPPINESS of seeing another Sacred Soul
is with you in this test!!
when i first heard the news i was saddened as i have been drawn to your spirit. i’ve always wished to see a personal side of you. not through a camera and somehow feel like i do see a personal side of you through the camera. im hoping there is something i can do to help your fight given the chance. you are a talented actress, breathtakingly beautiful model, but its that fire i see in your spirit that i love the most! i would wish you a “get well” but i already know your gonna be fine. ..and after reading your words i feel your already on the right track, and will as perfect as i see you, somehow come out of this a better person having had this temporary challenge. there is so much more i would love to tell you, but true i dont even know if your going to see this.
im not a writer so i apologize in advance for the lack of grammar and punctuation!..lol

Hey Lisa
I have been a big fan of yours from my early childhood days. Now, being a biomedical scientist, I know what you are going through. One thing I can add is that your positive attitude will definitely combine with the therapy and give better results.
You go and get healthy girl. There are many miraculous cases which have defied modern science speculations and for all we know, yours might be one too.
Take care of your health and live life to the fullest.
Love, regards and Best wishes to you and may God Bless You
A miracle happened to me..it would happen to u too..just pray and believe in god.
Best Wishes
Dear Lisa
You are a good person with a good heart and God is always with people who are good in their heart. Don’t loose hope, inshallah everything will be fine. You will recover from this and will be back to your normal self.
During this time, I would recommend you to read The Quran, it will give you a entirely different perspective to your outlook towards life.
Get well soon.
Our prayers are with you.

Dear Lisa,
I was sad to hear of this news but yet very hopeful. Why you may ask? My mom had multiple myeloma for 13 years (from age 64-77). Although she passed away in 2000, I know there are many new meds that will help you. I met you in Calgary with Deepa Mehta a few yrs ago & talked to you while you were smoking outside the hall. Kinda funny!
My mom’s illness forced me to write a spiritual & meaning of life book in her honor. Quite the experience. I hope you convert your blog to a book. It will help many people.
You are a strong person & I know you will get through this “minor” bump in the road. My prayers & good wishes are with you. Love your movies by the way!
Namaste & Om Shanti.
Hi Lisa,
I am an Indian doctor in oblivion in Canada and dying a slow death due to Canada not recognizing my past achievements coupled with my age factor.
If I could, I would have wished for a life like yours – lived full for no matter how long – how many of us can achieve what you have?
I once had an army paratrooper who injured his leg so badly that despite all efforts it had to be amputated – before the operation as his anesthesiologist I had to take his informed consent. His reply astounded me. he said, ” Sir, I have taken 50 yrs of life out of thsi leg in 25 yrs – time to give it a rest otherwise it wont let me rest!” I was almost in tears as a relatively young doctor. Soon the routine of work over took my memories. A year later I read on the front page of a newspaper, “The first one legged man to circumnavigate the globe – a reknowned paratrooper……” It was him!
God has given you so much – and one never knows – you are in Toronto the home of many medical discoveries – so keep living life to the full.
We admire you and pray for you. If I can offer anything to ease your suffering just e-mail to me.
A well wisher
Hey Lisa,
You have been my Fav. sice I was a kid (since I saw you in Late. Nusrat F.A.Khan’s music video Afreen afreen……..). To me your are one of the mooooost beautiful ladies I have ever seen in my life. You’v gotta fight it out lass. My best wishes are always there with you. I know you can win.
Please take very good care of yourself and dont miss your Yoga, apart from the medication.
Love,Hugs & Best Wishes,
Akash
Hi Lisa,
I like the positive energy in u and do keep faith in god.
Now the technology is so advanced that you will find cure for many of the issues.
May god bless you and Takecare of yourself.
Hi Lisa,
Got to know thro newspapers in India about your sickness.
A well wisher like me has advised you to go for Urine Therapy which i too heard from reliable sourse that it cured a lady of tumour in the uterus.But this was a case of taking cow’s urine for few months and the tumour simply shrunk and the lady is now fine.She defied the Dr’s who told her that chemo and radiation was her only hope.
Also,Lisa,if you could go thro the net,you will find a lot of positive articles written of a SURE CURE for cancer if you start taking RAW APRICOT SEEDS.I know that Dr’s in USA/CANADA are not allowed by the FDA to prescribe this.
Go and try these medications and i am sure you will come out of it.
Don’t worry dear,from lots of messages that you have been getting,i can very well say that besides people that are around you who are close,there are too many like myself too who are well wishers and wish you speedy recovery.
BUT,PLEASE TRY THE ABOVE REMEDIES.
Love,
Raaj Karkera

My younger sister was diagnosed with mutiple myeloma a couple of years ago. She was 39 at the time. She went through many treatments. She had the marrow transplant done last year (using her own marrow). A year after the transplant she went back to work.
She is doing wonderful now. She takes one day at a time and is so thankful to be alive and healthy.
You have a long hard road ahead of you but I am sure you have lots of strength and lots of support to get you through.
God bless and Take Care.

Hi Lisa,
You are the most attractive actress in the world!
I believe you will recover soon as so many people are loving you and praying for you.
I just hope you don’t suffer any pain of the disease or treatment process.
Life is brief to everyone. No one knows when she/he will die.
All we can do is to cherish current moment and experience the time when we are in this world.
Then after we die, we’ll have so much good memories to recall till next life.
Love fr. China
we love you
lisa,

i want to give this little note to you: it says:
the lord will never make me suffer more than what i can endure… the will of god will never take you where the grace of god will not protect you…
god bless you…we are there in all love and support…
Hey Lisa,
big fan of urs (haha very cliched). fight ur cancer like u hav fought against d will of eating delicious stuff! lol am sure u’ll win it…
aur phir…. hum hain to kya gham hain…. haha 😛
She was on a mission, to cry her eyes out and talk to death.
She went outside and took what she hoped would be her last breath.
Sitting in a chair, she felt too alone.
So she went down and sat in the two seated swing in front of her home.
She rocked back and forth, as she slowly let loose and cried.
She blasted music in her ears, as she slowly wished she could have already died.
The rain slowed, and she asked for a sign.
She doesn’t believe in God, keep that in mind.
But she looked up to the sky, and told him it was now or never.
She looked down to the ground, and didn’t believe she’d find one, not ever.
The rain poured down, in two heavy little pokes.
She looked over her shoulder to the other seat, and listened to the tree frogs’ croaks.
Nobody was there, yet she didn’t feel by herself.
She looked toward the mountain, and suddenly felt like she needed help.
Clouds had covered it, before her silent prayer.
And now as she looked, she found the mountains were there.
She could no longer cry,
But she wanted to still, that was no lie.
So she sat there, staring into space.
And the raindrops came and took the tears’ place.
Down her eyes they slid off her chin.
Tonight wasn’t the night for her last sin.
She looked once again to her right.
She swore an angel was with her tonight.
“Dear Angel, you might be a sign, but I need a stronger one.”
Was all she said, before the cold air made her numb.
She got up and started walking to the door.
She was convinced there was nothing worth living for anymore.
But as the door slid open, the rain came down fast.
And it suddenly seemed that her breakdown was a thing in her past.
She came back to a message from the only friend that seemed to really care.
She read the words quiety, and continued to stare.
Rest assured, she told the friend she was fine.
She told her death had given her an offer, but for some reason she had given a decline.
The friend told her how much she cared and how much she meant.
And that’s when the girl started to believe her friendly angel was Heaven sent.
Then one more friend took her mind off of the tough time.
He made her smile, and at the same time made sure everything was fine.
And that’s when it hit her, that’s when she realized the truth was fair.
There was always a reason to live, and her reason was right there.
Love and Prayers

I just read this news on afterellen.com and I’m sort of stunned and bummed. I hope you achieve your remission and thanks for your bravery in doing those two lesbian film roles. I am sure that bravery will come in handy as you go through this. Good luck and I’ll be toasting you with something gently carbonated when you beat this thing back. Salut !
Dear Lisa,
You have been one of my favorite model/actresses and I wish you the best of luck and strength in these testing times. You have taken it with amazing fortitude and grace and you will win this battle, with grace and beauty. You look lovely in the pictures and congrats on you upcoming movies. Your blog is a joy to read.
Love,

A lonely seagull flies the winds
Majestic… soaring…gliding wings
A single screech sounds from the sky
Come fly with me… come here and fly
My spirit floats to be a part
I feel the beating of its heart
My soul, one with this bird of sea
Now knows the meaning to fly free
I feel the winds caress my soul
And soar the streams without a goal
My being trembles of delight
A treasure I received tonight
The seagull’s flight of soaring high
The gift of what it means to fly
Love and Prayers
Hina
On the tail end of 1999, having just turned 68, I was returning to Brampton from a veteran’s reunion in Seoul nursing yet another of my famous colds which no amount of cold cures could defeat – still ignorant of the fact that I possessed no imune system. Not only were my colds getting worser but the tonnage of pills added (like steroids) to figure improvement.
I attended a year-end conference in Fairfax VA and soon thereafter went down with a goodly dose of the galivanting collywobbles (pneumonia) and in order to escape the scandalous Ami medical bills I was schlepped back to Canada in the rear of my car by wifie as I lay prone across the back seat and totally unaware of how many two’s make four.
Back in Brampton, I was soon diagnosed as being the recipient of MM which invariably affects only old farts anyway – but as an interesting bon mot…..of some 2000 annual cases – circa 1000 died, meaning that I had a 50% chance of overliving, surviving, remission, whatever. Quicker than you can say anthelmintic I was freighted to the best damn medical center in North America – Princess Margaret’s where I was floated, shunted ‘n bloated, bone marrowed ‘n stem celled. Yesireebob. I was royally dun did unto.
Teeth. Me top right three decided to waggle and therewith my person was immediately returned to PM, specifically the ortho section of specialists who work hand in glove with the cancer crowd. They removed three $1000 implants and fashioned a bridge because me jaw bone could no longer hold my thingies in a vice-like grip.
Over time MM can obviously take various avenues of punishment, mine selected pneumonia of which I have had four serious bouts in the past ten years. As a most unfortunate aside from MM I am allergic to so many drugs and this causes the medicos to then seek out alternatives instead of being able to apply the real McCoy. August ’08 was the worstest bout because I suffered what is known as ‘walking pneumonia,’ that is to say, I had no fever, no sniffles and otherwise no outward simptoms. However, I was not able to walk three paces without being bereft of breath. Back into Peel Civic for another couple of weeks rest and relaxiation! Then, on Valentines Day this year the cardio guy wanted to know why my heart was doing the samba, rhumba and conga all at the same time. I replied that this was normal and he mumbled something about arrthythmia and so I received a pacemaker compliments of St Valentine. Howzat?
What I’m saying lass is that at almost 77 I’m still a part of this planet flying by the seat of my pants and still giving in-car driver instruction lessons, all the while working part-time for Avis car rental at the airport. So there!
I decided ions ago not to join an MM group because it would, in my estimation, be akin to Waiting for God. However, every once in a while I get wind of a Loma Linde type all day session to be held in one of the downtown hotels (Toronto, London, Calgary) with some of the super duperist branes available who split the sessions up into classes – which I have found to be most informative.
Now to end on a positive note. On the issue of Revlimid capsuls, they really do help improve the quality of life by raising one’s protein count, however, some of the side effects can make life bothersome prior to gargleing 3x daily.
Bless both you and Mark and may your God go with you.
Hi Lisa
I too have the same Royal Blessings; some call it the incurable disease. It was detected in Jan 08. My plasma level was 5%. I was told by the doc that it had been detected at an early stage. Lucky me !!! though I am a retired 60 yrs young.
I was on Thalidomide capsules (100mg 1 a day) along with multivitamins. Last Jan (2009) a biopsy of bone marrow was done again and the result, ha ha ha, plasma level dropped to 3.5%. Now my oncologist lowered the dose to 50mg a day.
So sweetheart, just keep it up and enjoy life on full beam.
Love you

Nice post. Loved it!
Lisa,
You shouldn’t be disgraced with the cancer…It’s an opportunity to show this world that nothing is there what we call Impossible.
You must have to fight and kill it within your body.
We are praying to god for your good health.
Dear Lisa,
It takes guts to pen down your recent experience this way. Yeah, as a doctor, I know what they say about the prognosis. However, medicine has always advanced and there have been “firsts”.
Lance Armstrong defeated a testicular malignancy and went on to win the Tour De France so many times!
I was very impressed reading a book “why not me” by a Multiple sclerosis (a degenrative disease of the central nervous system) patient called Anna Healy who lives in Melbourne. She exhibitied spirit like you, although these two are different kind of diseases.
Get well soon, you dirty realist!

Journey of my mind still pending…
The heart is wound yet not healed up.
My aches were not filled with care
A tear touches another tear..
Mind still not woke up…
Love that left in the middle of journey…
My feelings and Emotions are in dilemma
Emotions has to live up or wipe off
Mind still restless…
Those care that tenderly love I deserve?
My life goes behind the curve
Journey of my love still pending…
Even I don’t know where I would be landing…
Again the fruit of love ripe off
Now mind behave diplomat
Feelings are confused…
Mind still abused…
Is Feelings and emotions again revive
Is it so?
Mind never takes rest…
Journey of my life still survive
Life is churning, the never ending journey
journey of my life still pending….
journey of YOUR life is still pending…
Love and Prayers

Lisa,
My wife had the same treatment you are on and is still in remission 3 years later.
One thing to watch for is Peripheral Neuropathy. My wife started to get it and should have stopped the treatment immediately but did not. Now she has permanent nerve damage in her feet and lives with constant foot pain.
Good luck with your treatment,
David Smith
hola lisa: espero de todo corazon que mejores ” i love you.”
Hi Lisa,
I am awfully sorry to hear that. I’ve worked for the company that discovered Velcade, and heard from a lot of patients who have defeated MM. I would not say it is incurable, there are many who can lead normal lives and go into remission.
Good Luck in your fight against MM.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
HI LISA
NEVER STOP FIGHTING !!!!!!!
GODBLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
te amooo! i love you.. God is with you 🙂
Hello Baby!

Can you see how many people love you?
You will heal with the strength of our love.

Life is every where
It is in you now and forever it shall stay
Life is the wind blowing sideways
Life is the winter and the summer
I am Life You are Life We are Life
I love Life and Life loves me
Life and I play beneath the midnight sun
Life and I play beneath the morning moon
Life brings me soup when I am ill
Life kisses me good night and greets me with a smile
Life is sad and it is lonely
Life is evil and Life is blunt
Life is a true friend and never lies
I am Life You are Life We are Life

Dear Lisa
It needs sheer guts to do what you are doing right now… i read about you , your blogs and your illness in the newspapers today and that drove me to visit your blog page and read what you have written over here… For someone who’s been an admirer of your since good old times learning about your illness came as a shock but then my father also was a victim of cancer and throughout the duration of his illness and treatments we learnt just one thing which was “With grit and willingness to live, one can conquer any disease “ so just stick to the medicines, have lots of proteins (& the recommended diets) and fight back with a vengeance… Nothing is impossible lady with the way medical science is advancing today ….
I’d just like to say that “Keep fighting lady … you never know… with grit and determination you might end up being on the winners side”… my prayers and best wishes are with you always … will keep following your progress on this blog regularly
Love and Good Wishes
Mayur
live like a winner
give life all you’ve got
make your best shot

rock what you’ve got

live like a winner

put your mind to the test
live like a winner
and you will do great

Dear Lisa,
I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma 14 years ago.I felt that the more people I told about my “condition” the more opportunities for support and help there was. Good for you to be so outspoken. Iy wish for you is a full remission.There is hope for all of us!
Good Luck

really interesting…
thankx for sharing such thoughts
Dear Lisa,
Love the “Dirty Realist” in you. I believe it can be cured and belief is all that matters. Prayers ar with you.
Love…
Dear Lisa,
You never lose until u stop fighting. And in this war of yours, you have an army of fans on your side. We love you and admire your spirit. You are a true star and just dont ever change.
Believe in God! He gives the toughest of jobs to those who, he is sure, can handle. This time, you’re the chosen one. Fight and show way to those numerous others, who are losing faith.
We love you!! Best of luck and Be Brave!!
Warm wishes,

Hello Lisa,
I’m a recent fan of your work and was devastated to hear the news of your diagnosis. I’ve seen two wonderful films “The World Unseen and “I Can’t Think Straight and thought the performances was outstanding. I have a brother that was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year, and he’s a fighter. My mother says he continues to fight everyday. He never complains or says why me. I feel you have a gentle spirit and fight in you to beat this disease. You have a positive attitude and that is the key to fighting your disease. Please continue to be the voice of those that have no voice of this disease as more research is required to find a cure. I also hope you will come to the States after your treatment to bring awareness of this disease. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers to continue to fight your disease. God Bless you and keep you strong. FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

Lisa
First let me say how sorry I am to hear you have this disease but let me commend you on coming forward to raise awareness.
You are by no means part of the normal group of people (senior age) with this disease and therefore the stats should not concern you. This is the way I felt when I was diagnosed at 47 years of age.
After my Stem Cell Transplant, I enjoyed 7 years of remission (drug free) up until this past July when it came back. My treatment in 2002 was the usual VAD along with pulses of Dex and this went on for 3 months. They collected my stem cells using a new method which involved taking two drugs, Stem Gen and Nupogen. This procedure “whole blood collection” produced two bags for my transplant. I still have one bag frozen and suggest you request the same. Today I am on Velcade which for me is very effective in reducing the protein levels in my urine. My Myeloma is known as Bence Jones Disease and I am referred to as being “Kappa Light Chain”.
I have just completed 16 infusions of Velcade and have another 8 to complete before my transplant.
This will happen sometime in November of this year at London Health Sciences Centre in London Ontario.
I am confident of reaching another complete remission and enjoy many more years cancer free.
All the best to you Lisa. I believe you can do this as well.
My family and I will be thinking of you.
Note: Watch out for the mood swings while on Dex!!! It can really do a job on your nerves, due to lack of sleep.
If you are thinking of taking the part of a crazy lady in an upcoming movie, dex would be just the ticket to get you in character.
Be Positive.

Hello dear Lisa,
Hope that you’re fine and that u don’t have any pain.. I will pray for u that u recover soon.
Just need to sumbit to you a message.. I tried to search in the stores for some of yr movies but couldn’t find except 3: Hollywood Bollywood, Kasoor & Water, and the rest I couldn’t get them.. just don’t know why!! I’m from Gulf Arabia, Bahrain, and we get all the movies which’re released worldwide, all the hollywood, bollywood & foreign language movies but couldn’t find your movies as well as the latest one “I Can’t think Straight” which was released on 2007.
Hi Ms. Ray,
I am a 66 year old man first diagnosed with MM 7 years ago. I had a very favorable response to initial chemo. (VAD). I had my stem cell transplant in December 2003. I was in the most advanced stage (3) at the time of first diagnosis. Althought I do not presently practice, I was a trial lawyer for many years and am very detail oriented. I have spent the last 7 years researching the disease, alternative treatments, dealing with known and unintended consequences, etc. I am very familiar with the various treatment modalities, their side effects, and other related issues. I would be happy to provide additional information and answer any questions you or your family/friends may have. I have been a patient at the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa for these past 7 years. Good Luck!
Dearest Lisa,
I hope you read this.Just got the shocking news.We have not been in touch, but you were in our thoughts.
I cant imagine what you are going through, but our prayers are with you, and you will get through this.
Do be in touch, much love to your parents.
I am not great at putting these things down on paper,so do e mail and I can call you back.Derek sends tons of love,And Sarah is now7 going on 17!
love you

Respected Ma’m
I am a patient of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer. Early detected, I presume, what the Doctors say this is curable.
Already undergone the 1st Chemo, I’m now ready for the 2nd.
There will be a surgery after the third, and I am 51 only.
I am a song-writer in Bengali. They say that the lyrics are poetrical with rays of hope that act like music therapy.
I’ve gone through “Tuesdays with Morrie” by Mitch Album and “The Joy of Cancer” by Anup Kumar. Obviously I have my own mindset for combating, still, these books gave me extra courage…… till I discovered this blog.
I have now learnt to live. You have given me the panacea.
I’m grateful.
I believe, you will come through. And, you must. Dont say this is incurable for you at least.
You don’t need any help or support, Ma’m, you yourself are omnipotent.
Wish you all the success.
Love.
My dearest Lisa,
Buddhism is win or lose. With such solid determination you have already won. Now just work towards the winning. I am a Nichiren Diashonin Buddhist who has been practicing for the past 23 years. Believe me when I read your interview in the newspaper (i forget which one) I knew with your strong determination you will be able to make the impossible possible. Forget what science says. There are days when u will be lost, but please please just chant ” Nam myo ho renge kyo” and DEMAND from the positive forces of nature to cure you. I will pray with all my being for your recovery.
With all my love.
Deepa Shergill

Dear Lisa,
I Pray to God that u recover completely from ur illness at the earliest.
I also request u to kindly refer “ITISNOTREAL.COM” Site and read Robert Adams’ articles which is mainly on self enquiry and self realisation, (based on Ramana’s “who am I”).
Please go down in the site to the Topic OLD SITE MAP and read all the writings by Robert Adams. At times, it may b repetitive, but it really teaches us what we are and what is life!
With Warm Wishes

Hey Lisa,
If you have ever read the book called the secret or watched the video you may know may just realise a wee bit about the powerful forces you have set into motion. There are 2 stories which may be of special importance to you. Theres the story of a woman who was diagnosed with breast cancer and she decided to fight it & how. Apart from her treatment she created a mental image of her being completely cured and
happy. The nin order to reinforce it she would do stuff to make her feel happy the entire day like watch comedy all day long and guess what cliche’d as it may sound but the cancer disappeared.
story 2 is about this young art director whose feng shui consultant noticed had paintings painted by him of naked women sort of lokking down at him with a condescending look. When asked he said that he actually intended to improve his love life. So she asked him to go ahead and paint something which depicted that and 3 months later when she met him, he had suddenly started dating 3 women. Point here is that please dont paint your wall yellow… probably paint it a colour you associate with healing ..like say blue or even red for the regenration of your RBC’s.
Cant let you succumb so easily, i want you to lose your membership of the yellow MM club ASAP.
After all its you who wrote ” Protect your identity and your dreams and what you want to be in a world that is at every point trying to make you something else”.
So go win the match with that MM and we are all here to support you and pray for you.
FIGHT !! FIGHT !! FIGHT !! FIGHT !! FIGHT !! FIGHT !!
Uday.
Hey Lisa,
I found out a bit late, nevertheless, better late then never. I wanted to convey you my thoughts regarding what you are going through. I sense you are an extremely strong human being with mental toughness not gifted to alot of us by the Lord all mighty.
Many would had said this to you before, but what i did not see was any one saying how lucky you actually are!
Life only gives us one chance, better live it the way you like then regret later. Its all about being happy, highlighting those aspects of life which makes you feel happy and satisfied rather than those which makes you feel down.
I would say this again, life only gives us one chance, and perhaps this illness has given you the opportunity to look into your self and realise the true essence of your life.
Their may be a large majority of us who gets to live their full qouta of life, yet, they live a life of regret and sorrow. I sincerely beleive you are much well off than the bunch of lot i just mentioned.
Its the first time I am writing to you or for that sake to any body else, I just hope after reading this, you would realise the fact that you are LUCKY by all means, and there is always a reason why presumably bad things happen to good people. I also beleive that there is light at the end of the tunnel and by the end of this experience, you are going to be a person much more refined, happy and satisfied.
Wish you a healthy, happy and satisfied life.
God bless you, tc!
Hi Lisa,
I knew only a little about you but was quite shocked to read today’s “chennai times” and your ‘multiple myeloma’. Guess it was sometime back a program in Star Plus you hosted with Kelly Dorji, a tamil movie ‘netaji’ and my most favourite ‘kalyani’ in water and the ‘Ottoburlington’ catalogue… Now that i read this news about you .. these were the ones which i could remember about you..
Of course your “Kalyani” would always remain a legacy…
I don’t know if it’s a correct suggestion… but why bother yourself with all these steroids, chemo.. and every other jargons which ur docs suggest ?? By this i don’t mean to totally relinquish your treatment.. but don’t let it invade your normal life..
I don’t think it’s okay to cross over from ballroom to chemo daycare…
This ‘wetsuit’ is not for you..
Anyways it’s my personal opinion.
“Survival of the fittest” – being the norm of our life, we all are fighting against odds for the sake of survival. My fight may be different from yours but what which is omnipresent in every living beings’s life is “FIGHTING AGAINST ODDS”.
Now that you’ve got one more to add to this list by the name of “MM”, but don’t let this take over you..
Live every moment.. May GOD give u the endurance..
With wishes for a life which is fullest to it’s volume !!!
Regards,
Peter Williams
Hello Dear Lisa,
I learnt from newspaper report that you have been diagnosed with melanoma. I request you to visit our website http://www.cancerfundamentaltruth.com based upon the works of two very senior doctors of Mumbai KEM hosptial Dr.Manu Kothari and Dr.Lopa Mehta. Their epoch making work “Nature of Cancer” in 1970’s received worldwide acknowldgement and their book for the common man “Other face of Cancer” has been translated to Dutch and German other than Indian languages. Ivan Ilich the mexican bio journalist commented on their book that “this is the first book which makes the lay use expert advise rather than be used by the experts”.
A suggestion – please recognize the fact that your cancer is a part of you and has not caused by any external agents. We should not forget It has been suggested that life, as we understand it today, emerged from the purposeless, incessantly proliferating cancerous mass called pre-life (Dawe, C.J.: Phylogeny and oncogeny. )
Thanks & regards
Abhijit Mukherjee
Hi Lisa,
It was indeed shocking to hear that you are suffering from multiple myeloma……………I have always admired you right from your Bombay Dyeing ad days…………..I can understand what u are going through ‘cos I was also diagnosed with thyroid cancer last year, have had treatment and am now doing fine. What I underwent is very very less compared to you…………….I admire your tenacity and determination………….am especially pleased that you chose to write about this illness to make people aware of the disease……………….10 days ago, I took part in the Terry Fox run organised in memory of Terry Fox A Canadian athlete who died of cancer. It was ideated by Akash Dube ,a 17-year-old student diagnosed with ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukaemia) earlier this year.
All our prayers are with you……………I am sure you will come out of this successfully…………….GOD BLESS
Good Luck for ur Movie ‘Cookin with Stelle’ and with each and everythin in ur life.
Wish you a healthy, wealthy and wise Life.
Love and Prayers

Lisa Ray,you are the same spunk and enthusiasm that once featured in a Daler Mehendi song(sorry,I don’t remember the lyrics,where they showed you doing the go-carting thing) and Dil Kabootar Khana hai .I wish a very speedy remission and hey!you are young,it’ll work out for you,touch wood!You look beautiful in the purple gown(I hopped here via High Heel Confidential)!Wetsuit or no wetsuit-Live it up 🙂
Don’t let that spirit down
Much love and take care 🙂
Lisa,
I love you, always have.
Dear Lisa,
I heard your voice through the blog. It is understandably excited.
The voice was personal, strong and clear. It had a trembling energy to it.
It easily brought me in tune with what you are experiencing.
It requires a lot of energy to deal with what you are challenging.
I am glad that you have support of the best Doctors and you know it all about alternative healing techniques. (Though it seemed you have not given it much attention:)
But you will do all that is needed as you are a fighter.
When we fight it does make us forceful. Pl. don’t hate that state. It’s normal to be aggressive when you are challenging something huge.
You will surely go past that stage and allow your self to get better without really fighting it.
The main reason to communicate with you is that you opened your arm to receive help and support. To ask for support clearly tells that you are really strong. It takes lot of strngth to be vulnerable.
That is a very good state you are in. You are allowing love to enter your life. Hope that will get converted into lots of joy.
Further I really liked the way you are listening to your body which has gone through a lot.
The body craves to be listened and it will respond to become healthy as being healthy is its natural drive.
Have you now been able to look at your ill health in it’s eyes?
Has your heart felt it ok to be afraid and still do the needful?
Be kind and gentle to yourself dear. You are lovely and deserve all the joy life offers.
Embrace it.
Lots of love and a warm hug.
sandesh kulkarni
Lisa, I am sure you will overcome this. God bless you!
When all about you is black with gloom,
And all you feel is pending doom.
When your bones are racked with grim despair –
When every breath is a gasp for air.
Keep on going, though you need to grope,
For around the bend is a ray of hope.
A ray of hope is perhaps all that’s left,
As your will to live has been bereft.
You’ve lost it all, it’s just no use!
You can end it all, you need no excuse.
But throw away that piece of rope,
And give yourself a chance of hope.
Just give yourself another day,
Brushing aside what your thoughts may say.
This is your life and you can make a new start,
By ignoring the brain – just follow the heart.
Taking baby steps in order to cope,
And minute by minute you’ll build on your hope.
Build on your hope,. one day at a time,
Though the road be steep and hard to climb.
The hurts of the past – they should be dead.
The fears of the future are all in your head.
Just live in the present and refuse to mope
Your life will sparkle for you’re living in hope.
Love and Prayers
Hina
Hi Lisa,
Im sadden about your news, but then again, after reading all your blogs, all the support from your fans, family and people who are concerns and believes in you, i know you will get through it. Stay strong, and keep your faith to our Dear Creator. He will not give us problem that we cannot solve.
Im one of those people who are praying for you.
And hey, im waiting for your next movie.
LLL= Long Live Lisa
Ghem

whole thing that u posted..but i wanna tell u just stand up 🙂
believe me, everything gets better
cuz u have such a many people that love u, like me!! hehe
take care and love u lisa! 😀
I am shocked to hear that you have such a disease. Normally I don’t check out blogs but I am checking your blog after I was informed with this news. I know you have always been a fighter, hang in there tight and at the end of the day, everything will be fine. I agree that some of the yoga workout really help out a lot, and I think you can start working on some of the Ramdev’s yoga exercises. It has helped a lot of people so far and have cured a lot of incurable diseases that medical science has thought impossible. We all are here for you as your support and we know you and I and fight this disease(like a piece of cake! :-D).
Hi Lisa, I am a nine year survivor. I am now classed as MGUS and have been stable for many years. I am the leader / facilator of a local support group in Sault Ste Marie Ontario and I have ten year survivors in the group. If you ever want info on the different blogs or questions you want answered please do not hesitate to contact me. I also have some interesting literature you may want to read. For Canadian info contact http://www.myelomacanada.ca or in the USA http://myeloma.org/ Best of luck and good health. Bev
Hi Lisa,
I just read of your diagnosis on the IMF website.
I am responding because I, too, have myeloma.
I live in Arizona and was diagnosed with Stage 3 myeloma at age 38. I am now 41. As you know myeloma doesn’t get the publicity that some of the other cancers do, probably in part due to the fact that it is usually found in the older population.
So I applaud you for going public with your disease! You have the ability because of your fan-base to create awareness of the disease and help bring it to the forefront of research. However, this is certainly not your obligation. Your life is your own to live how you want. But, I sure appreciate that you have spoken out.
I have had Thalidomide, Velcade and a stem cell transplant, which put me in complete remission. I went from Stage 3 with kidney failure to complete remission for over 2 years and living a normal, happy life!
I am so grateful for the new drugs like Velade (my wonder drug) and the current research.
I am so sorry you were diagnosed with this disease, but I know you have the best doctors in Canada! My current dr. at Mayo Clinic is from Toronto also and is a myeloma specialist. I’m glad you are surrounding yourself with the best doctors!
I don’t believe in false hope and don’t believe in some of the “remedies” people are suggesting. But, I do believe that now is an exciting time in the world of myeloma and that huge strides are being made with regard to new understanding of myeloma genetics and treatments.
I wish you the BEST and hope that you are soon in remission and feeling great! Thank you again for going public with your journey!
Best Wishes,
Kris
I love you so much, can’t believe what’s happening to you,I wanna ripp my heart out and give it to you,if I knew that could save you!But you are a warrior,and the fact that you have the courage to fight this mercyless disease,makes me hope ’till the end!Get well beautiful princess,let there God be with you every step!Romania loves you,don’t ever forget that!
Lisa, I wish you all the best in this fight. I hope that you’ll get over with this. You have my support. Go Lisa! 😀
Dear Fans and Friends
Ive been following the blog and also the following fan comments. As maintoined earlier that we should slow down and also start working/contributing for the same cause as Miss Ray has been workin on ‘Yellow Diaries and awareness to Multiple Myeloma’.
Ive some suggestions regardin the cause.
By posting the links here on blog is just one way of creating awarness, there are still alot of people who dont use or have the facility to use internet. We can help them by givin lectures about sign and symptoms of the disease, by distributin pumphlets descrbrin a little about the disease and may be by organisin some walk creatin awareness. This may be on a very smaller scale but even if these little things can save one life it worth doin.
Other thing as Im a doctor by profession ive strated doing some volunteer work in our Chemo ward. I only go for 2-3 hours a week because of my busy schedule and tiering routine plus ive a exam comin up aswell but jus to contribute to the cause ive started doin this. So you can help around people who are suffring from the disease. Im also workin on MM letreture and will be disrtibuting it to people InshaAllah soon.
Here are alot of people who can make beautiful Multimedia presentations and even can do beautiful editin of songs. They can contribute by making videos and songs.
So each one of us can contribute in the any way he/she can within the level of its expertise. If you guys have anyother suggestions please share.
Love and Prayers for Ray

Dear Lisa,
I am a friend of Rishma Malik – a one-time colleague of yours [I think].
On 6th of March, 2009, I underwent surgery to remove a malignant tumor from my right lung. I also know many other Buddhists like me who have beaten cancer. I also have overcome osteoarthritis – which too is an incurable disease.
The trick is to understand the principle of “oneness of mind and body”, and to know how to strengthen one’s life-force. When that is done, illness is thrown/forced out.
At almost 68 years of age, the one thing I have learnt in life is – IF YOU WANT TO WIN, DON’T EVER GIVE UP. From the sub-title of your blog, “Never Stop Fighting”, you already have the right idea.
If you have any interest in this, feel free to contact me. In any case, my deepest prayers reach out to you.

Hi Lisa

Dear Lisa,
Hi, Do not worry about this at all. Just be strong in the faith of our Lord Jesus. I just saw this news. I am not so close to Indian Movies, but I like everybody as we are all gods own creations. I will start praying for you from right now. Lord will do a miracle in your life cause he loves you very much & he is a god who makes impossible things into possible. Can you pls.spend just few minutes and say this prayer & call a prayer warrior at the PRAYER TOWER, Dhinakarans,CHENNAI (INDIA) to pray for you, surely you will be healed by god.
The Lord forgives all your iniquities, He heals all your diseases.
Psalm 103:3
Loving Lord Jesus,
The Scripture says, “By His stripes, we are healed” and “whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” The Bible also says that You will strengthen the man who looks upon You on his bed of illness; You will sustain him on his sickbed.
When You lived on this earth, You went about doing good and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. You died and rose from the dead for our sins and that we may have eternal life. I believe with all my heart that You are present even today with all that miracle-working power and it is Your will that I should not perish. Lord, have mercy upon me and help me to overcome this disease. Let it be done for the glory of Your name. Forgive me all my sins that block Your blessings from reaching me. I know that You are going to heal me and I praise You for that.
In Jesus name I pray Amen & Amen.
God loves you very much.
Dear Lisa,
Just got to know about your disease,It is really shocking to me actually..I really admire the way you have come forward to fight with this..Hat’s off to you..I have loved all your films and would love to watch you again on screen.Please take care of yourself and GET WELL SOON

Dear Lisa
I don’t speak English, I’m sorry. I hope that you have who you translates it.
Hola. Hace muy poco me enteré de esto, me sorprendió mucho saber que tenías cáncer y es que tampoco sabía de que tipo de cáncer se trataba, así que lo primero que hice al ver que una de las actrices más importantes para mí estaba padeciendo, fue buscar información y encontré todo lo necesario para saber que para superarlo tendrás que ser muy fuerte. Probablemente se muy poco de ti, pero creo que aparentas ser una persona muy fuerte, sobretodo en la mayoría de películas que he podido ver en las que salias. Se que las películas son ficción, pero creo que de vez en cuando va bien aprender de alguna de ellas, así que solo espero que luches por lo que debes luchar, y sé fuerte, se fuerte como en muchas de tus películas. Para mi has sido una de las actrices más importantes del cine, siempre he querido aprender la fortaleza que mostrabas (siendo así tu papel) pero creo que las películas en las que parece que lo des todo para salir adelante tienen algo tuyo y personal en realidad. Así que espero que lo hagas por ti y por los tuyos, que aunque parezca mentira muchas personas que ni tu conoces, te queremos y queremos lo mejor para ti Lisa.
Un beso, se feliz y continua siendo tan buena actriz como hasta ahora. Te quiero
Laura.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is one of several cancers categorized as “plasma cell dyscrasias.” They account for 10% of all blood system malignancies.
The immune system has several types of cells that work together to fight infection and disease. Lymphocytes are the main immune system cell types. When B-cell lymphocytes respond to an infection, they mature and change into plasma cells, which produce and release proteins called immunoglobulins (antibodies) that attack and help kill disease-causing germs.
But, when these plasma cells grow out of control, they can produce tumors that in several sites, especially in bone marrow (plasmacytomas). When these tumors grow in multiple sites, they are called multiple myeloma (MM). This cancer can produce various skeletal, blood system and kidney symptoms and is most often diagnosed during an evaluation for unrelated problems, although it can present with bone pain or a fracture.
MM is the most common primary bone cancer in adults (generally in those older than 50) with an annual U.S. incidence of 3 to 4 cases per 100,000 people. It occurs with greatest frequency in African-Americans and is very rare among Asians.
Oral or intravenous chemotherapy is the standard treatment to destroy or control myeloma cells. Radiation may also be used. The choice of regimen depends on the patient’s age and kidney function, and the stage of the disease. Treatment focuses on achieving and maintaining remission and on preventing complications.

Dear Lisa,
Sorry my bad english, I will do my best for you to understand me. I’m from Brazil and would like you to know that you are very dear to us, and we are praying much for your healing. I know exactly what it is because my grandmother also had the same disease. We all have much hope for you, like you said, “I believe it can be cured”, I also believe, because we must remember that with God nothing is impossible, and He will do a miracle in your life. You are wonderful as an actress and as a person, with all due respect, always good-natured, friendly, kind and very captivating. You’re beautiful, and really you shine like a star of truth, your joy is always contagious, and I hope in this fight, even if it isn’t easy, as you continue to smile because you’re not alone, the world prays for you now, your smile can save lives, especially yours 🙂 I always get emotional in her films, from the first time I saw you I fell in love 😀 You deserve a lifetime of happiness, love, success, faith and good health , a long life! When I learned of her case, I can say that my grief was so great that I cried, you are very dear, really pure and sincere.
Be strong, dear Lisa, God bless you always. Have faith in Him, He can heal you. With much love…
Kisses.
I don’t know If I said it already but …Hey good stuff…keep up the good work! 🙂 I read a lot of blogs on a daily basis and for the most part, people lack substance but, I just wanted to make a quick comment to say I’m glad I found your blog. Thanks,)
A definite great read..Jim Bean
Hi Lisa,
I just dropped by to say that I finished watching The World Unseen. You were great! as well as Sheetal.
Even though I’m not Indian or been in to South Africa, i did really appreciate the movie.
Kudos to Shamim and all the casts and crew!!!!
God Bless you and stay strong!

Dear Lisa,
Wish you strength and wellness.
Please look up information on cancer and maitake mushroom D-Fraction liquid.
I took this for multiple cancers in 2003 and went into spontaneous remission 4 months later. I’ve been clear ever since. Unlike yourself, I didn’t have an immune system to fight it.
The other great effect maitake can have is lessening the side effects from cancer treatments.
Again,
Best of health,
Simon
Reporting from yellow box – lol my boudoir is a bright vibrant yellow . (((((( Surya )))))))))
Reaching out to a star who is shining bright . Lisa~Ray of sunshine. Firstly …you are so very beautiful
I recently came across you ma , travelling through the virtual world. I remember watching Water – magnifique. Followed by the other 2 with Sheetal Sheth. Beautiful, sensual, empowering and enlightening movie that hit me to the very core. You are a great actor with such passion in your work .
Deeper into the universe I found your blog. I admire your beauty for living life , projecting positivism and meeting your challenges ~head strong – A truly beautiful flower.
I think your attitude and your will power will heal you. Sending love to each and every cell.
Oh light of the world , you have put it out in the universe your spirit will conquer this challenge – live and love strong ma.
We all have some type of trial and tribulations in this journey of life but you have inspired me to be fearless – ((((abhaya))))) Thank you petal
Try listening to Binaural sounds and try Ahhhhhh meditation manifest healing . Should be avail on you tube .
I am so small I can barely be seen.
How can this great love be inside me?
Look at your eyes. They are small,
but they see enormous things.

Much love, light and healing vibes your way xxx.

P.S – I’ve added you on all the portals now i think LOL
Hi Beautiful
I am watching kasoor , youjr movie right now. It reminded me of the morning i woke up and i read dreaded news you have myleoma. I have lost an uncle to that dreaded diease. I was kind of shocked reainf about Garden gal having that dreaded disease. I know it is bad diease but i read some where “i know what i want to be and god knows what i will be”.
Way god works is mystery to us. If he hads given you this diease he will give you strenght to fight it. Goid gives money to those who have courage to spend it and not complain about it. He gave you ( i am assuming god is a male) this disease cause he knows you have that strenght.
They say when a fly falls in milk till the time it does effort get out of milk it remains alive as effort to creates a a layer on milk, moment it gives up fly drowns.
Please donot give up. May god give you strenght( way he gave beauty) , my prayers will be with you.
hi lisa,
u r very strong n have faith in life, i m sure ur these qualities will help u to come out if rhis problem sucessfully. well i strongly advise u to try rekki m sure it will help u
god bless you tc 🙂

Dear Lisa
You can. and you will. Dirty realism is 100% correct. It’s 100% right. it’s time to go places that you’ve never gone before. live life more than you ever knew. it’s all or nothing, baby. It can be done, and from what little i know, YOU can do it. Others before you have. now it will be you, changing those stupid stats, not accepting them for even a second.
I know all about it. i’ve been there. I understand. I believe. In me and in you. You have all of my energy, my positive thoughts, my prayers. Please, take what you need.
Hope to see you on Queen street really soon. We need you, your honest charm, and your wonderful ways of being. don’t change. ever.
Love,
Santiago B.

hi, how is everything?
Hi lisa, im from Panama, i could have the opportunity to see some of your movies with sheetal which are amazing movies, may be i wont recieve a answer back but i just want to tell you that im in shock about what is happening to you, i even cried when i knew about that and its kind of wierd cuz i dont even know you but its your personality and your way of being that make people care about you… you know i love the idea that you are taking the disease with such a positive mind, i dont want u to think of me as a fan but think of me as a friend, whenever you need someone who to talk to… this is the part of my life that i will wish to have some powers and help and cure you girl… whenever you are down just listen to this song a you will feel better.
There’s a hero If you look inside your heart You don’t have to be afraid Of what you are There’s an answer If you reach into your soul And the sorrow that you know Will melt away
And then a hero comes along With the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside And you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And you’ll finally see the truth That a hero lies in you
It’s a long road When you face the world alone No one reaches out a hand For you to hold You can find love If you search within yourself And the emptiness you felt Will disappear
And then a hero comes along With the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside And you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And you’ll finally see the truth That a hero lies in you
Lord knows Dreams are hard to follow But don’t let anyone Tear them away Hold on There will be tomorrow In time You’ll find the way
And then a hero comes along With the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside And you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And you’ll finally see the truth That a hero lies in you
Mariah Carey
NEVER GIVE UP GIRL, NEEEEEVER AND JUST TRUST GOD, HE IS ALL MIGHTY.
SEE YOU, HOPE YOU ARE OK, PLEASE LET JUST A HELLO AT LEAST TO KNOW YOU ARE FINE.
Hi Lisa,
Just want to wish you well and to let you know that you are a strong person you will fight this. God Bless you. Do not give up!!!!

Hi Lisa,
Never lose your hope
Keep fighting like the wind
Feel your heart, it’s still beating
Stand up and touch the ground
There’s nothing you can’t reach
En el camino aprendí
que en cuestion de conocer
de razonar y saber
es importante, entendí,
mucho más que lo que vi
lo que me queda por ver…
Loves from Argentina!

Maybe God should give me your cancer instead.
The world needs you more.

Dear Lisa,
Only this evening I saw news in India Today about you being diagnosed with cancer. Naturally I am concerned, like all who would be aware of this sad news. I would like to send you information on Herbalife products, which are totally vegetarian, made from herbs and plants, and are essentially protein based food items. These are not ‘medicines’, but there are cases known to have cleared cancer patients. Even one after a few sessions of chemotherapy the patient was given possible lifespan of 3 months. The patient started on these products, viz (1) Nutritional Shake Mix known as Formula 1, (2)Multivitamin Tablets, Formula 2, (3) Personalised Protein Powder, Formula 3 and (4) Aloe Plus Caps. These products from the US based company are made available in India but are not available in the market and I can send to you if required. I am giving my website for some further information. You may also see http://www.herbalife.com. Incidentally I retired as a senior executive with a large British MNC and am now in Calcutta. I shall be pleased to help and shall wait for your response. If I know your email address I can send you a write up on how proteins can help rejuvenate the cells overtaken by cancer. Sincere best wishes. Pradip Sen
This is really a awesome post, but just half of it seems to be displaying – it cuts off mid-sentance, any thoughts what has occurred?

Dear Lisa,
We are putting together India’s biggest conference on Stem cell called “India Stem Cell Conclave & Exhibition 2010”, This program will be conducted at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Mumbai on the 23rd & 24th of October, 2010.
India Stem Cell Conclave 2010 offers a two day program of the most cutting-edge content in commercial stem cell use. Industry experts will converge to debate and discuss how to overcome the challenges facing the stem cell industry today, which can open opportunities and business development tomorrow. This Conclave will be the premium meeting-ground for over 250 Industry Experts, Investors, Practitioners, and Analysts who will converge to make this the largest Stem Cell conference in India.
India Stem Cell Exhibition 2010 which will be India’s first and most premier Stem Cell Exhibition, this expo will be concurrently running with the Conclave and will be opened to the public from all walks of life to participate. For many this will be a first time opportunity to get in-depth information on Stem cell Storage and clinical treatments and also come face to face with the people behind the Stem Cell Industry.
We would like you to Address:
Why we need patient advocates for the stem cell industry to progress
Please feel free to make changes as you deem fit
this session will start at 4:30pm on Sunday the 24th of October 2010
There is still a lot of skepticism towards stem Cell therapy in India and a majority of Indians don’t even know that there is an alternate treatment using stem cells available to them in India, that is why we need a strong champion for Stem cell in India and we don’t see anyone else other than you who can address this session and be a part of this conclave.

eres un ejemplo de superacion, y te admiro…ademas de esa belleza perfecta que tienes.
It’s strange to hear what you had experienced in last year. Your words were “smooth” and your mood seemed “peaceful”. I believe in that you are the kind of person who fight for something bravely.
The time is late tonight. I will read this article in detail tomorrow.
Your faithful reader
I try to feel what you felt, but uselessly.
Months ago, I lost 10 pounds of body weight in 2-3 months without reason. I felt weaker and weaker, more over, anxiety and insomnia. Finally I found out I had thyrotoxicosis. My dear friend worried for me and took good care of me, but never understood what I felt during illness.
That’s what I want to say. If I can feel the way you felt, maybe I can comfort your heart.
It recalls me a fiction written by a Japanese writer “Junichiro Tanizaki”: “Okoto and Sasuke”. It’s a love story talking about love between a servant and his blind female master. The servant finally blind himself to experience dark world his master in…. WOW, that’s incredible!
How are you recently ?
Wish you in good shape.
A LOT OF LOVE & A LOT OF PRAY .MAY YOUR HOPES AND DREAMS *****(JAYESH,MINI,ESHA ]
