OverviewThis book is a powerful testament to resilience, service, and self-discovery. The author's journey is both inspiring and relatable on so many levels, especially in how she beautifully articulates the silent struggles of immigrants-learning 'the unspoken language, ' and honestly reflecting on the challenges of navigating complex situations while striving to be the perfect daughter, wife, mother, and physician. This heartfelt story beautifully highlights the sacrifices parents make and the lasting influence of their values-empathy, perseverance, kindness and hard work-in shaping a meaningful and fulfilling life. This book is a must-read for anyone wanting to learn how to be a more positive person and anyone wanting to live their best life. However, this is also a great read for physicians as she tells the lessons she learned on her journey to becoming a breast surgeon. In Their Legacy, Their Light She Carries, Deepa Halaharvi tells her story of growing up in an immigrant household, caring for her family, honoring her parents, and ultimately fulfilling her dream of becoming a breast surgeon. Deepa shares her own breast cancer journey, having been diagnosed just eight months after becoming a breast surgeon. This had a profound impact on her not only personally, but professionally, as she could now better relate to her patients. Along the way, Deepa learned many lessons she now shares with patients and those in the medical community. Through this book and The Breast Cancer Podcast which she began in 2020, Deepa's goal is to better inform those who are going through cancer and those who are treating cancer patients. Deepa's parents instilled in her a hard work ethic, but also taught her humility, compassion and the joy of caring for others. In Their Legacy, Their Light She Carries, Deepa hopes to memorialize her parents and share with the reader the ""light"" they shine on her every day.
