patients and families, we can reduce the burden of cancer, improve health outcomes and save lives.

As I move forward in my journey, I am filled with a sense of purpose and conviction. I am committed in continuing my work
as a District Coordinator, advocating for accessible and affordable cancer care and supporting patients and families affected
by this disease. I am proud to be part of a team that is dedicated in providing high-quality cancer care and I am inspired by
the resilience and courage of patients like Bina, who remind me every day about the importance and impact of our work in
communities and in lives of people. It fills my heart with a sense of hope and optimism. I know that there will be challenges
ahead but I am confident that together, we can overcome them. I am enthusiastic to continue working with patients, families
and communities to provide high-quality cancer care and support.

My journey being exclusively in the field and there by connecting with diverse communities has taught me that cancer care is
not just about treating a disease - it’s about caring for the whole person, his/her body, mind and spirit. It’s about offering hope,
compassion and support to those who need it the most. And it’s about celebrating the resilience and courage of patients like
Bina, who inspire us all to live with purpose, hope and joy. In addition, awareness is the key to unlocking the doors of hope
and healing. It is the spark that ignites the flame of courage and resilience by letting people being brave and speaking up for
themselves by knowing the importance of self-care and maintaining good health.
