MESSAGE FROM THE PATRON MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

“Surround yourself with only “When it rains look for

people who are going to lift rainbows, when it’s dark,
you higher.” look for stars.”
– Oprah Winfrey – Oscar Wilde

Yang Berbahagia Ranjit Kaur

Puan Sri Datin Seri AMP
Dato’ Akmal Abdul Salam
D.I.M.P

It is heartwarming to witness BCWA’s evolvement in terms of planning and execution of activities in the community.
BCWA’s reach has touched the lives of people of diverse background, uniquely placing the Being Breast Aware
programme and Patient Support Programme as pillars of people engagement in our local communities. This cannot
happen without the dedication of the President, Executive Committee Members, staff and volunteers. Keep up the
good work.
Our staff and volunteers showed their commitment to the development of the Association’s activities. BCWA benefits
from not only its longstanding, inextricable connection to other breast cancer support groups, but also through
collaboration with hospitals, corporate companies and government departments in the country. BCWA aspires to
excel and set a standard for excellence in offering psychosocial and material support to individuals diagnosed with
breast cancer and to enable the population to be vigilant about Being Breast Aware.

I take delight in expressing my sentiments of love and appreciation for all those who contributed to BCWA whether
it is in cash or kind. A big thank you to corporate companies, associations, clubs, schools, universities and individual
well-wishers for their helping hand extended to BCWA.
I wish BCWA all the best and I hope the organisation excels further under the able leadership of the President and
the Executive Committee.
In 2017, our Community Outreach Services reached out to a total of 17,216 individuals while our Psychosocial
Support Programme for newly diagnosed breast cancer survivors touched the lives of 1,007 individuals. With the
employment of more staff and recruitment of additional volunteers, BCWA is reaching new heights in supportive
care and community outreach services.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank our Executive Committee members, staff and volunteers for their dedication,
expertise and effort in the growth of the Association. We thank the Patron and the Technical Advisors for their
expertise and guidance. We welcome more volunteers to contribute to the development of our objectives and to
further extend our reach to the Malaysian population.

We are extremely grateful to all donors for their ongoing contribution in cash and kind during the past year.

SUPPORTIVE CARE PROGRAMMES Individual and Group Psychosocial Support Sessions

Pink InspirerS
This group of women living with advanced breast cancer cope with daily challenges, support each other and inspire
others with stories of their battle with the disease. They stay in touch with each other electronically to share
experiences, expectations, hopes and aspirations. Pink InspirerS also participate in advocacy activities to improve
access to healthcare for individuals with advanced breast cancer.
“Like a tree well rooted that can withstand the storm
so can I. With high spirit and strong will
we can weather through the storm.”
Pink InspirerS participated and gave invaluable feedback in a discussion regarding access to treatment for cancers
which was initiated by Together Against Cancer Association Malaysia on 6 July 2017 in Kuala Lumpur.
While participating actively in BCWA’s activities, they also attended events to enhance their knowledge of
development in treatment and care for individuals with advanced breast cancer. Among the events attended was
a dinner talk on 28 July 2017 in Kuala Lumpur entitled “A New Approach in Diagnosing and Monitoring Metastatic
Breast Cancer” by Dr Rafael Molina Porto, Director of Biomedical Diagnostic Center, Hospital Clinic de Barcelona.
The talk was organised by Siemens Healthineers.
BCWA offers a range of supportive care activities to improve the quality of life of women affected by breast cancer.
The activities cover the provision of psychosocial and material support to individuals in hospitals, over the phone or
at BCWA’s premises. Throughout 2017, BCWA’s programmes touched a total of 1,007 individuals.
Psychosocial and material support is provided by BCWA’s Patient Support Team comprising a group of trained
breast cancer survivors. They support patients facing fear and uncertainty; they offer information on diet and self-
management during treatment and beyond. They also guide patients regarding disclosure, financial constraints,
employment concerns and social stigma. The Patient Support Volunteers strive to motivate patients through their
journey of battling breast cancer.
In 2017, BCWA’s support services expanded to nine government
and private hospitals in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. The Patient
Support Team members visit patients upon referral by the
respective healthcare professionals. A Comfy Kit is given to the
newly diagnosed patient. It consists of a temporary prosthesis
(for those who undergo a mastectomy or removal of the breast),
a stress ball for physical and psychosocial exercises, publications
on coping with breast cancer and its impact, and, a bag to carry
the post-surgical drainage bottle.
On the third Saturday of every month, newly diagnosed women
and their carers are encouraged to attend the New Patient
Education session at BCWA’s premises. She can ask questions, Comfy kit for the newly diagnosed patient
share her fears and concerns, and get support from the
volunteer. This is followed by a group sharing session for newly diagnosed women and their carers to discuss issues
affecting them with other breast cancer survivors. At the beginning of the session, the coordinator of the group
sharing session, namely a Patient Support Volunteer, will list down the ground rules of the session. On weekdays, a
Patient Support Team member and BCWA staff are on standby at the BCWA premises to attend to phone calls and
walk-in patients.

Non-Medical Aid
BCWA provides non-medical aid in the form of wigs, temporary breast prostheses and affordable mastectomy bras
to assist affected women to manage their condition and to help lessen their financial burden. Wigs are loaned out
at no cost to women who experience temporary hair loss due to chemotherapy. They are guided by a staff on the
selection of an appropriate wig as well as given advice on the care of the hair piece. The woman is then referred to
a volunteer hairstylist for shaving of the hair and styling of the wig so that it looks natural and suits her face, thus
giving a feel-good factor and a sense of self confidence to the woman.

For women who have lost their breast as a result of mastectomy, BCWA offers temporary prostheses (external
breast form) and sells mastectomy bras at affordable prices.
The temporary prostheses are stitched by BCWA’s Thimble Thumb Team of volunteers every Tuesday at the BCWA
premises. The prostheses are feather-light weight and soft to facilitate comfort during healing of the surgical
wound and during or after radiotherapy. A total of 521 temporary prostheses were given away in 2017.
BCWA also offers information on suppliers of wigs, silicone prostheses, mastectomy bras, lymphoedema sleeves
and other attire, including swimwear for women with breast cancer.

BCWA Activity Report 2017
SURVIVORSHIP ACTIVITIES
Women affected by breast cancer are given the opportunity to engage in bonding among themselves through social,
sports, art and team-building activities. These activities not only enable the women to have a smooth recovery but
they also promote the practice of a healthy and active lifestyle.
Over the years, BCWA has been facilitating breast cancer survivors to pursue common interest activities which
offer emotional, physical and social benefit. Through these survivorship activities, BCWA endeavours to inspire
individuals about living a fulfilling life after breast cancer. These activities also provide a platform for mutual support
and bonding .
Pink Challengers
BCWA’s Pink Challengers took part in the CCB (Asia) Hong Kong International Dragon Boat Race in June 2017 at
Victoria Harbour. The team participated in the International Women’s Championship and International Cancer
Survivors’ Championship categories. The Pink Challengers achieved seventh placing in the International Women’s
Championship and eighth placing in the International Cancer Survivors’ Championship. A total of nine teams
competed in both categories. It was an unforgettable experience to compete among thousands of athletes from
around the world and to build kinship with cancer survivors from other countries.
BCWA’s Pink Challengers practiced their paddling skills every Sunday at the Putrajaya Lake. A Canadian study in
1996, showed that dragon boat paddling could help reduce the risk of lymphoedema (swelling of the arm that may
develop after lymph node surgery and radiation therapy). Aptly, the team’s slogan is “Paddle for Courage, Strength
and Change”.

Pink Power Pink Melody

This bowling team was formed in May 2010 with 14 breast cancer survivors. Inspired by BCWA’s Patron, Puan Sri
Dato’ Akmal Abdul Salam, bowling as a sport has many advantages, namely, maintaining a physically active lifestyle,
improving mental alertness, correcting body posture, maintaining coordination and balance, and strengthening
muscles. Pink Power members practise on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of every month at the bowling alleys at Tropicana
Golf & Country Resort and at Sunway Pyramid.
The fortnightly bowling meet was also a platform for Pink Power members to catch up with each other’s treatment
progress. On 14 May 2017, a coaching clinic in bowling was conducted as a refresher course for the experienced
bowlers and an introduction on basic bowling skills for new bowlers. In 2017, the Pink Power team actively
participated in tournaments and leagues organised by various organisations. Pink Power members also practised in
the fortnightly bowling meet, totalling up to 23 times throughout the year.
Pink Melody is a choir group comprising breast cancer survivors and friends of survivors. It was set up by BCWA
to provide another form of psychosocial activity through music therapy for individuals, promote peer support and
create breast cancer awareness through public engagements.
In 2017, Pink Melody performed at two public events. On 4 May, they performed at a Charity Hi-Tea carrying the
theme Girls Wanna Have Fun which was organised by BCWA’s Patron, Puan Sri Dato’ Akmal Abdul Salam, at the
Shangri-La Hotel Kuala Lumpur. The other event was the Hand in Hand concert held at the Damansara Performing
Arts Centre, on 1 August.

Sunway Megalanes organised the 24-week Sunway Doubles League in March-October 2017 which gave Pink Power
members the opportunity to challenge their bowling skills with other skilful bowlers. In April 2017, Pink Power Team
secured third place among 32 teams at the Inter-firm Single-Elimination League organised by the Royal Institution
of Surveyors Malaysia. Mr. Eric Khoo from CK Century Construction Sdn. Bhd. sponsored the Pink Power’s fee for the
event. The highlight of the year was the Inter Team Unity Bowling Carnival 2017 held on 30 April 2017 at Sunway
Megalanes, a joint project with Sports Unite Sports Club for the fifth time in a row. A total of 129 bowlers including
cancer survivors, family members and friends competed in this event with each team of three bowlers captained
by a cancer survivor. The Pink Power Team participated in WBC Bowling at Ampang Superbowl, eCurve, Petaling
Jaya on 16 September 2017. The event was organised by Women Bowlers Club Federal Territory & Selangor. On 8
