Nidisha 2.0- Second Innings after Oral Cancer

India is the hub for Oral Cancer with an incidence of almost 500,000 new cases every year. Most of these patients lose a part of their face to surgery and face difficulty with speaking, eating and swallowing.There is severe loss of self esteem affecting their mental health-the cure becomes more dreadful than the disease itself! Such patients need to be rehabilitated with appropriate artificial substitutes or prostheses to look, feel and function like a human being all over again. Unfortunately, under 5% of patients go through any kind of prosthetic reconstruction and rehabilitation either due to lack of awareness or accessibility.

Nidisha 2.0 is the story of Nidisha who got a new lease of life after she got rehabilitated.She went back to what she enjoys best-her profession as a hair stylist at her salon.
