Cancer is a disease of the aged in the west but in India we find most of the cases between the age group of 30 to 69 years. Also many patients either do not know about their illness or try to hide it because of many social reasons including financial constraints. There are equal numbers of patients who after getting a Cancer treatment, do not like to go back for further treatment unless there is an emergency. Our NGO wants to bridge such a gap between these patients and big hospitals by opening and maintaining medical services in a Cancer Patient Care Centre. This will be kind of a support service for the existing Patients and a Cancer Detection Centre for the new Patients where we will treat the Cancer patients at very nominal rates. For the poor and under privileged patients we will try that the treatment will be free of Cost.
