Women and tumors.The importance of space to beauty.

Beauty will make us bloom again. (Giancarlo Giannini)

In October 2015 at the Istituto Nazionale Tumori Regina Elena in Rome (IRE) the projet “Insieme più belle” was launched: a make-up space for cancer patients to feel more beautiful while fighting against the disease. A pink corner, in the waiting room of the Day Hospital of Medical Oncology 1 which represents for them a period of serenity. Recovery of one’s own image, pride of one’s appearance, feeling of well-being and greater determination in the continuation of treatment are the sensations that patients feel when looking in the mirror after a make-up session.The voluntary associations ARVAS, AMOS and AMOC Onlus promote many services and initiatives for the care of the psycho-physical well-being of women and men. And the smile on the path of care feeds the strength within.
