Associação Mama Help

A diagnosis of breast cancer is always devastating news, even if it is "very small" and "easy to treat." 

Beyond the physical illness, such a diagnosis brings with it a significant psychological burden for the diagnosed person, family, and friends. After all, we are all vulnerable, and although we know we are not immortal, the proximity of illness makes the risk more present.

This diagnosis affects not only those who directly experience the illness but also partners, children, parents, friends, and even neighbors, leaving no one indifferent. 

It is not just a disease; it is a process that definitively changes everyone's life in multiple dimensions and to varying degrees. For that reason, the response cannot, and should not, be solely medical. 
Being well-informed is essential. 

However, this information is not always easy to find, and even when available, it often lacks proper guidance, which may worsen the problem instead of mitigating it. 

Mama Help emerges precisely as a diversified resource center, open to the entire community, providing information and support in various areas, from the first diagnosis and throughout all stages of the disease. Cancer can return, and when that happens, the impact is even greater, making help even more necessary.
