An interactive session of questions-answers was also held. Renowned psychologist, Dr. Huzaifa Bhinderwala also participated in the seminar by giving answers to some of disease related queries.

March 20, 2008 at 12:00 AMEach Chemotherapy Treatment is highly expensive
and the time frame given between two successive
Chemo Treatments is short. Patients parents feel
helpless to bear the cost.

March 17, 2008 at 12:00 AMMy Cousin Sister(14) has been undergoing chemotherapy treatment at The Tata
Memorial Hospital from the Last 4 month but has not recovered fully. Each chemo treatment cost around Rs. 25000/- INR. As the patients hails from a middle class family, they are unable to bear the high treatment cost. We appeal to Mumineen brothers to support her by providing medical assistance.
