The Barriers

Social Support/Child Care

Relationships with family and friends play an important role in patient wellness and helps patients cope with their cancer. Support groups and social worker help can have a massive impact on their experience of their management.

“I would like to know from someone with a similar diagnosis who went through it already what can be expected and what I can do to prepare. No scary stories, just a dependable source of support. I don’t know what to believe.”

“There is still a stigma attached to breast cancer in the community, and sometimes these beliefs demotivated me to come to the clinic, because people treat me as if I am terminally ill. I would appreciate it if healthcare workers could give a talk/ refer support groups that could increase the awareness and support of other people with breast cancer”

Please help us to pay for transport for patients to come to our hospital for health care, help us to distribute information sheets to them about their disease and management thereof, and help us pay for a social worker or psychologist to spend time with them.

The impact you can have on the life of someone in need is MASSIVE.
