OCTOBER is designated the month of Breast Cancer Awareness, and as it comes to an end, the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC)’s Oncology Department hosted a special day of togetherness for the hospital’s cancer survivor patients registered with the clinic.

All the beautiful ladies were treated to a sumptuous lunch, with light refreshments and entertainment. Dr. Gooding and some of the patients gave words of encouragement to have hope and faith; not to give up and to have a fighting spirit in order to overcome anxiety and depression.

In addition, 45 hampers were delivered to the ladies, compliments of Muneshwer’s Limited. The hampers consisted of household, personal and self-caring products.

The GPHC expressed thanks and appreciation for this wonderful and thoughtful gesture by the company, showing compassion and care for the survivors and being generous to society. Representing Muneshwer’s were Selena Rafeek, Sarah Ramoutar and Valerie Rodrigues.
