There is a common impression among people that once stricken with cancer, there is no hope; it’s all finished for you. This very thought often makes cancer patients enter into a state of severe depression and they 'die a thousand times' before the actual death comes. Through its outreach and educational programs Bharat Cancer Hospital Mysore attempts to create an awareness about the need to get into treatment early so that the disease can be detected at an early stage and its growth rate or proliferation can be clinically arrested, thereby elongating the lifespan of the patient almost to that of a normal healthy human being. Also by keeping the cost of cancer treatment affordable when compared to many other cancer hospitals in the country, Bharat Cancer Hospital Mysore has indeed taken a humane approach towards patients suffering from this deadly disease.
