Unique way of remembrance by medicos -turning grief into positive action on Saturday 22nd October 2016 in association with DNipCare and Delhi State Cancer Institute, Dilshad Garden, New Delhi

“Numberless meetings and partings going on in the world –on death, the great parting, from which none returns.

Humans often fall into hope than seeing the reason, and long before we realize, disappointment becomes too hard to handle”.

Ravindra Nath Tagore wrote in his famous short story ‘Post Master’.

The undergraduate Medicos of prestigious AIIMS, New Delhi took the grief of losing their classmate Preeti to the tentacles of cancer disease on 19^st October 2015 in a positive way and held a remembrance for her through cultural program for cancer patients and bystanders in Delhi State Cancer Institute on Saturday, 22^nd October 2016 in association with DNipCare and the Institute.
