The very mention of some diseases can send a shiver across our spine. One such disease of our times is undoubtedly Cancer. The words malignant and Cancer are really feared and dreaded.
Some of us would have just heard it in news broadcasts, stories or movies. Some of us would have seen its horrors in close proximity.
Every individual wishes for a healthy happy life to his kith and kin. Some diseases can be avoided by following healthy habits and a organized lifestyle. For a few awareness is very important to enable early detection and treatment.
Breast Cancer is the most common cancer among urban Indian Women today. Luckily, survival rates are more than 90% if diagnosed early.
I have personally seen and heard cases of overcoming breast cancer in my family due to early detection.
Scientists down the line may invent something that cures cancer the way a crocin can rid you of your fever. Till that day dawns lets spread awareness and pave way for a healthier society.
