"I’ve lived through cancer. I know what it feels like to wake up unsure of your tomorrow, but I also know what hope looks like, and it looks a lot like all of you! You’ve helped us keep our promise to stand by cancer warriors in India who are still fighting, still hoping, and still holding on.

"Thank you for walking this path with me! We will keep going, we will keep fighting, and we will never give up."

"Standing with @YUVSTRONG12 last night in support of @YOUWECAN's incredible work felt deeply meaningful. You have turned your personal battle into a mission to help others win theirs. That takes heart. Always with you, my friend," he wrote on X on Wednesday.
