My mother is a cancer survivor. Last year, at the age of 85 yrs. she was diagnosed breast cancer. At such age it was only possible due to her awareness. As soon as she noticed some discharge, she informed the fmly. And we promptly decided for surgery.
I would like to share with my fellow authors this motivating fact, and pass message to stay aware and never to panic. We Gujaratis believe in a proverb - "Chetato nar sada sukhi" - means "An awared person is always happy".
Here I have used Beetroot - packed with antioxidants and fibres, possessing elements that fight against cancer. And many colourful veggies.
I highly appreciate this campaign of Pink October. More power to team Cookpad 🙌🏻♥️
