CISC

Last Tuesday, I have attended a seminar hold by Cancer Information and Support Centre (CISC) as the volunteer. In there, I have learnt that the cancer patient need a lot of moral support both from himself/herself and family friends. Many people when they were diagnosed with this illness, starting to freak out and confused. They will go to alternative treatments, instead of consulting with medical experts. This step will actually endanger the treatment for patients. There was a lady doctor at her late 20s. When she was diagnosed to have breast cancer stage 1B, instead of going to doctor, she went to alternative treatments around two months. That procedure had actually delayed treatment until when she decided to go to see doctor, the stage had changed from 1B to 3B. From here, we need to realize that time is very important and critical in handling the illnesses.
