Must read
Music helps with chemo brain
Cancer treatments can affect memory, concentration and other brain-related functions. Relaxing music reduces the fog in your head, research suggests.
Mixed feelings in your relationship due to breast cancer
Breast cancer can put you in turbulent waters as a couple. This is only normal and need not have dramatic consequences. What helps? Talking. With each other, and with health care providers. Even about things that are often still taboo: intimacy and sexuality.
Exercise is the best medicine
Walking is not only good for our bodies, but also for our minds. A regular walk in the fresh air outside helps us get through the day. And did you know that walking reduces your risk of breast cancer as well as your chance of relapse after breast cancer?
Pink Ribbon is the Belgian organization dedicated to the fight against breast cancer every day.
The non-profit organization Pink Ribbon is the national organization working every day to improve the medical treatment of breast cancer and increase the quality of life of (former) breast cancer patients. Our mission is ready and clear to eliminate the disease and reduce its impact.
To this end, we are setting up several projects in Belgium under 5 pillars:
- Breast cancer awareness
- Prevention
- Early detection of breast cancer
- Psychosocial support for (former) patients and their surroundings
- Research
To finance these projects, we raise funds managed in the bosom of the Pink Ribbon non-profit organization and at the Pink Ribbon Fund, the latter under the auspices of the King Baudouin Foundation.
