🦜If I Had Known..... 👨👩👦👦Celia was a vibrant and hardworking woman, happily married to Kalson, with two wonderful kids. 🤯Their home was filled with laughter and love—until the day her doctor delivered devastating news. 🚶♀️Last year, Celia noticed a lump in her breast but brushed it off. 🥺 To her, it seemed trivial. Despite Kalson’s urging to see a doctor, her fear of hospitals kept her from seeking help. “I’m fine,” she insisted, dismissing his concerns. 😨Now, sitting in the doctor’s office, confusion washed over her. The doctor’s words hit her like a tidal wave. 👾“Madam, the lump has spread broadly and developed into stage four cancer. I’m sorry, but there’s little we can do. ☢️We can start chemotherapy and remain hopeful for a miracle,” he said gently. In an instant, her world shattered. 💔Thoughts raced through her mind: “What will happen to my family? Who will care for them?” It felt as if her brain had shut down. 📆😪 “If I had known,” she whispered, tears streaming down her face. “I would have taken my health seriously.” ✨If you noticed a lump in your breasts like Celia what would you have done ? Would you have gone to the hospital or said positive words to convince yourself that you are fine? ✨If you were Celia's husband what would you have done ? Would you have let it slide or you would have taken her to the hospital by force ?

About us
Women need attention along the breast care pathway depending on their personal risk profile. Every female seven to ten days after menstruation is supposed to conduct a breast self-examination to look for abnormal nodules, redness, fluid coming from the nipples, and orange skin appearance on the breast to ensure she is not at risk or has developed breast cancer. Breast cancer can be treated if noticed at an early stage. Most often, these symptoms are neglected by the victims and are left to escalate leading to more damage. Breast Cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in women, and has led to the death of many women. According to the latest WHO data published in 2018 Breast Cancer Deaths in Cameroon reached 1,400 or 0.67% of total deaths. The age-adjusted Death Rate is 20.15 per 100,000 population which ranks Cameroon number 45 in the world. To curb the problem of late diagnosis of breast cancer leading to an untimely death in many young girls and women, as a result of ignorance of the disease; Check Me is a mobile application that gives directives on how to self-examine for breast cancer, creates awareness and propose nearby specialist and hospitals that diagnose and treat breast cancer. By doing this, we are therefore reducing the percentage of late diagnosis and hence untimely death.
