How to feel better with a “trick”
Thursday, November 3, for the 2nd year, the marathon of make-up led by WALCE for all the women following cancer treatments starts from Turin and will reach 7 Italian regions and three Spanish cities: Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia.
San Luigi Hospital – Orbassano (To); San Giovanni Addolorata Hospital – Rome; Careggi Hospital – Florence; Institute of Cancer “Giovanni Paolo II” Bari; Italian Leukemia Association Cuneo; Parma Hospital; Hospital of Montecchio (VI); Cannizzaro Hospital of Catania cooperate in supporting this project in Italy. AEACaP Association (Asociación Española de Afectados de Cáncer de Pulmón) – Valencia; Hospital of Vall d’Hebron – Bercelona; Hospital of Ramón y Cajal – Madrid will support it in Spain.
This initiative represents an important occasion to give correct and update information about a disease often underreported by the media, because its strong correlation with smoking habit. Lung cancer is one the leading cancer killers and each year about 35 000 people in Italy and over one million worldwide die because of it and unfortunately the number of cases do not decrease. WALCE (Women Against Lung Cancer in Europe), the association created to raise awareness among women in the fight against lung cancer, and to support people affected from lung cancer and their caregivers designed a free make-up workshop programme for women diagnosed with cancer and who are undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy or other cancer treatments to help them to cope with chemotherapy and radiotherapy side effects.
The programme is carried out in local hospitals and offers free make-up workshops, which are strictly non-medical and do not interfere with treatments.
WALCE organizes these sessions for small groups of women, because it is important to create a relaxed and familiar atmosphere for the participants. They take part in this two hour workshops lead by 1 or 2 professional voluntary beauticians who give them practical advice and teach them beauty techniques to help restore their appearance and self image during cancer treatment.
Maria Vittoria Pacchiana, psycho-oncologist at San luigi Hospital said “This is really a practical and support action that helping to improve the physical appearance of women contributes to improve their quality of life and foster a better adherence to the treatments. So it represents a further incentive in the daily battle against cancer. Silvia Novello, pneumo-oncologist and president of WALCE added “we would like that November becomes a real occasion for rising the awareness and the consciousness of people, because lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death and the stigmatization around these patients does not make sense anymore. It is important to give correct information on diagnosis and treatment options.
