Doctors confirmed his terminal prognosis and told Shalin that he had only 6 to 9 months left to live. Despite his tragic circumstances and the immense pain of his treatments, Shalin lived fully and fearlessly throughout his fight against cancer. While undergoing grueling treatment, he remained in close contact with Peace Corps staff and his fellow Volunteers in Peru. From his room in the hospital, he would write to those facing challenges in their service, sharing messages of encouragement and support. Shalin passed away peacefully in May 2015 after his valiant fight against cancer at the age of 22. However, his legacy of light and love continues to live on and thrive. Shalin’s final wish was to make a lasting difference in the world in the lives of others. He wished to help as many people as possible achieve long-term happiness in their lives by inspiring others to live their lives to the fullest and pursue happiness regardless of their circumstances. Shalin and his story of strength and positivity has inspired people all around the world to be grateful for everything life has to offer and to appreciate each and every day through the #SunsetsForShalin movement. “Life is a gift given only once, and I intend to make the most of the gift by realizing true potential to make a difference all while loving my family with all of my heart. What good is living otherwise?”
