Pink might not be the new black, but it surely is the colour of the season. October is internationally the breast cancer awareness month and Delhi is living it up to inform about this one disease that can be fully cured if detected early.
Hand in hand with Hard Rock Cafe, Ogaan foundation the breast cancer awareness foundation organised a documentary followed by a candid discussion to clear all doubts about the disease.
The documentary featured women who had fought breast cancer and lived to talk about it. Doctors present at the event also spoke up to dispell the great cancer myth. While breast cancer has no specific risk, some facets can be kept in mind. Chances are high if she might be susceptible to the risk if she has a family history.
The main precaution is not to ignore abnormalities if they arise and are detected, say doctors.
