Stories & Insights
Awareness, hope and strength — read our latest stories on cancer care, caregiving and mental wellness.
Ovarian cancer is often called the "silent disease" because its symptoms can be subtle and easily overlooked. Bloating, abdominal discomfort, fatigue, and changes in appetite are frequently mistaken for common health issues, leading to delayed diagnosis in many women. Yet, behind every diagnosis lies a story of resilience, courage, and hope.
When a loved one is diagnosed with cancer, life changes instantly — not just for the patient, but for the caregiver as well. A caregiver's responsibilities are vast and ever-evolving. They manage hospital visits, administer medications, coordinate with doctors, and often take on financial and household responsibilities. Beyond these practical duties, caregivers carry an emotional weight that is rarely recognized.
A cancer diagnosis changes life in an instant. While medical treatment focuses on healing the body, the emotional and psychological impact of cancer is often just as significant. Fear, anxiety, uncertainty, and emotional exhaustion can become constant companions throughout the journey. This is where counselling plays a vital role — helping patients navigate the mental challenges ahead.
