IMPACT STORIES

REEMA SHARMA

Reema Sharma, a 44-year-old woman, found a transformative moment at the Swasth
Jharkhand kiosk, a vital initiative by RCHRC and TCCF on the RIMS campus. Struggling with a
painful lump in her breast and limited resources, Reema felt lost and afraid. The trained nurses
at the kiosk provided compassionate care, guiding her through the process, leading to a
diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma. With the unwavering support of a Patient Navigator
and encouragement from the kiosk team, Reema faced her fears, undergoing treatment,
including chemotherapy and surgery. Today, she is a cancer survivor, embracing a brighter
future and expressing profound gratitude for the compassionate care that played a crucial role
in her journey to recovery.
