Twenty-one Microsoft employees took time out from the world of Information Technology to keep abreast of breast health. The Art of Being Breast Aware team was made up of Dr Evelyn Ho, dedicated counselor, breast cancer survivor Margaret Gooi as well as Francis Lee, for technical support and photography. A practical, interactive session ensued. The session was tailored more for a “young” audience, less than 40 years of age and only 1 brave participant was male. However, Abdul Rahman Haniffa was sporting as he volunteered as the model for the demonstration of self breast examination (SBE) in the “feel” aspect of SBE. |
