Take a good look at the skin surrounding the ni**le; look at the ni**le also. It is called dimpling of the skin, like the skin on an orange or lemon. Sometimes, this is what breast cancer looks like. This is known as Peau d'orange, (ORANGE PEEL) and can happen when cancer cells block the lymph drainage of the breast, resulting in fluid accumulation in the breast tissue leading to dimpling. Cancer is not the only cause of this, but if you see this, SEE A DOCTOR ASAP! It's breast cancer awareness month. Let your wife, sisters, daughters and female friends know the signs to look for to make an early detection. We don't pray for breast cancer but early detection saves life.

“Tears fall for a reason and they are your strength, not weakness.”

It’s imperative for children to understand that it’s okay to cry and express their emotions. One of the best things you can do to support your child’s emotional and personal development is to help them feel comfortable letting their emotions out. You can sit with them, listen to them, comfort them and reassure them that things will be okay.

We feel emotions for a reason; they give us a message about something. If you’re sad, usually something has happened that upset or hurt you. Perhaps there’s something you can do to relieve the feeling of sadness, or a lesson you can learn for the future so you won’t find yourself in the same upsetting situation again, or perhaps you just need to process something by letting the sadness out.

In commemoration of Children's Day to help children understand their emotions; Maheld-Aji Foundation (MHDF) engaged children in the Northeast region, Borno State, Nigeria to support their Mental Health and Wellbeing through activities that assists children to self-express their emotions through creative supportive PSS activities like art, drama, music, experience sharing of achievement and interactive session on the act of showing kindness etc.
This is aimed to guide children through different levels of feelings, such as the ‘emotionally stable’ zone and the ‘defence’ zone.

Every child is born a geniu and with "One book, one pen, one child and one teacher can change the world".
