How to hold on to light when the world felt dark. You were a fighter till the very end — a real warrior.
Even when people gave up hope, you kept going. You never stopped.” In her post, she further said, “We had plans, Vibhu. We wanted to make videos… to talk about everything you were feeling. We thought we had time. We didn’t. And now all I’m left with is your voice in my head, your smile, and all the love you gave me. I’ll miss you forever. I will
