A Quick Diagnosis and Surgery Saved My Life



My name is Vandanabai Gadekar and I live in Hanuman Nagar village located in Aurangabad tehsil in Maharashtra.

A year back, following a relative’s advice, I attended a women’s health awareness camp in Kumbhephal, Aurangabad. However, I happened to ignore my health as I was pre-occupied with the responsibility of the education for my child. Despite having suffered for almost a year, I avoided seeking any help.

I then attended the health awareness camp held by the GeBBS Foundation. This is when I was urged into taking my health seriously. The doctor at the camp advised me to come to MGM Hospital, Aurangabad for further tests. After being diagnosed with breast cancer, I was admitted to the hospital. I then underwent a successful tumor removal surgery. The entire process happened in a span of eight days.

The credit for my well-being goes to the volunteers at GeBBS Foundation and the doctors at MGM Hospital. They persistently followed up throughout my diagnosis, treatment and recovery. I would like to thank all of them from the bottom of my heart!
