Smile that will make you cry !

Their laughter will make your heart melt, their strength will make a tough person cry, if you once see a person fighting Cancer, it will change your life forever.

For many Cancer patients and their families the experience of this disease is a painful one. It bring up a wide range of feelings they are not easy to deal with. The feelings of pain and sorrow become more intense with time. While our larger cultural conversation around Cancer focuses on survivors and miracles, we don’t hear the stories of dying Cancer patients. Cancer impact lives physically, emotionally and socially.

Talking about depression, is a common reaction associated with Cancer. We don’t even know what a patient go through while fighting for life against it. For people it is easy to write their thoughts and feeling down on paper but their loss and grief cannot be explained. Cancer being an emotional disease more than just physical pain, we should support the sufferers in every way possible. It will be helpful for them in coping with loss and grief as it is in celebrating the gains and successes.

To show our togetherness we celebrate Cancer day today in support with all those who are in their crucial time of life. We can work together to improve cancer control and achieve global targets to reduce premature mortality from Cancer. Donating our hairs for free to them is a big step itself. Showing our care, helping them or just simply making them smile can add to some minutes, hours or days to their life.
