She mentioned that the pain due to chemotherapy makes her legs and feet numb but working out makes her feel strong physically and mentally.

“Exercise or any kind of Physical Activity is vital for maintaining a Healthy Lifestyle. But it’s even more essential and effective when one’s going through a phase of illness. Working out regularly not only helps you feel stronger physically but it also gives sustenance to our Mental Health. And keeping a Healthy Mind is obviously unavoidable,” Hina wrote.

“In the course of my chemo treatment, I face severe Neuropathic Pain which makes my legs and feet numb most of the time, sometimes while Working out I loose control of my legs and fall over due to the numbness..But I only focus on Getting Back Up. I won’t let the Fall define me .. I will be defined by the strength I show to get up each time. Each time when it feels like I can’t get up and go do the Work, I push harder. Coz what else have I got other than my strength, my spirit and my Willpower,” the actress added.

In one of her previous posts, Hina wrote, “I look forward to the good days because I get to do what I love: Work. I love my work. I live my dreams when I’m working, and that is my greatest motivation. I want to keep working. Many people work regular jobs during their treatment without issues, and I am no different. I met a few in these months and trust me it changed my perspective.”

In another post, the 36-year-old actress expressed that her boyfriend, Rocky has been her greatest “strength” during these tough times.

Wishing Hina Khan a speedy recovery.
