A team of female communicators for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Tuesday morning visited the National Radiotherapy, Oncology, and Nuclear Medicine Centre at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital as part of the breast cancer awareness month (Pink October).
The team presented an amount of GH¢25,000 to pay for the hospital bills of eight (8) patients undergoing radiotherapy at the Centre. They also donated several toiletries, detergents, and hand sanitizers; and served the staff and patients in the facility with hot meals.
They admonished women to always remember that breast cancer is the most common cancer type in females around the world. Breast cancer awareness is therefore imperative, as early detection, often through screening, can help detect the stage when it is easier to treat. It is therefore of essence that women especially, resort to routine checks, early testing, and detection.
