New Delhi : The Sarfarosh actor Sonali Bendre is fighting cancer in New York and her new post in Instagram says that she found source of support is her 12-year-old son Ranveer. Lately, in a social media post, Sonali revealed that her son took the news of "the Big C" with maturity. Sonali Bendre also said that though she wants to 'protect' her son yet she had to tell him all the facts. 

Sonali wrote: "We've always been open and honest with him and this time it wasn't going to be different. He took the news so maturely... and instantly became a source of strength and positivity for me. In some situations now, he even reverses roles and takes on being the parent, reminding me of things I need to do." Her post was accompanied with a lovely picture of mother Sonali with son Ranveer, which will surely make the readers go emotional.

Sonali Bendre in her writing emphasised that it's important for parents to keep their children involved. "I believe that it's imperative to keep kids involved in a situation like this. They are a lot more resilient than we give them credit for... In our effort to protect them from the pain and realities of life, we might end up doing the opposite," she said.

Ranveer is a strong boy and after hearing the news he is spending most of his time with his mother. "His madness and shenanigans help me #SwitchOnTheSunshine. And today, we derive strength from each other," she wrote

Earlier this month, Goldie Behl , husband of Sonali Bendre revealed that she's undergoing a course of treatment for cancer in New York. Sonali, too, talked about the changes she has accepted because of the treatment and added: "The only thing I'm trying to be consistent about is maintaining a positive outlook."
