Synopsis
Having been diagnosed with breast cancer is something that you don’t want to hear about.Does this mean that it’s a sentence that will limit your physical ability? Does this mean that you should cease all activities and ‘focus’ on getting better? The short of it is, N-O, no! A diagnosis of cancer is neither the end nor a reason to cease all activities. Certainly, with the treatment of breast cancer, it will bring on a slew of side-effects. However, this should give you all the reason, all the more, to participate in physical activity!
Not sure how to get started or what to do? Come on to this month’s talk to find out from our Physiotherapist as to how you can begin to engage and begin your journey to start feeling better!
(Do note that the session will be conducted in English only)
Limited slots available!

IN MEMORY OF Testing Archie Andrews IN HONOUR OF You fought hard my dear. You did well! Nicole I’M A SURVIVOR Diagnosed breast cancer in 2010, mastectomy was done, undergone chemotherapy, radiotherapy and also oral. Lucky to have so many friends and family members around me, who gave me so much hope and encouragement. Also attended the CanHOPE support group, where we shared experiences during the sharing session. I also assist to set up Line Dancing sessions for cancer patients since 2011 till now. Stay happy and positive. Patricia Tham Lai Kuan IN MEMORY OF Those we have lost IN HONOUR OF All Survivors. Continue the fight! IN HONOUR OF Jamilah A. I’M A SURVIVOR Cancer very disruptive!! Turned my life upside down. From a focused and down-to-earthperson, I became someone lacking in confident, confused and full of emotions. I hated theword “Strong”. “Be strong”, “Stay strong”, “You are strong”, “Thought you are strong”, blah,blah…. Never an easy journey!!But when you trust, submit and be a true slave to the only ONE, things will get easier. Seekhelp. Make authentic decision for yourself and no one else. Never give up HOPE!! Rose
