Project Idea:

When the person discovers that he has a cancer, this causes to him psychological and social crisis and this will reflect on his health and his life negatively. Al Amal Association has qualified specialists to help patients to overcome this critical stage, as it depends on scientific and studied methods to avoid the effects and side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy through psychological sessions and relaxation mechanisms which help the patient to control pain, depression or sleep disorders and also these sessions have an effective role in healing and changing the situation to the better, as it is proven by researches. The role of psychological support is not limited to the patient alone, but extends to his family as well.
