Why is treatment done earlier than admission?
Sometimes, when a case is urgent and vital, hospitals may proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalization of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts.
That's why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

Background
Fortune enjoys playing football and basketball, participating in school co-curricular activities, and playing football with friends at home in his free time. When he's not studying or helping with household chores, Fortune dreams of becoming an engineer in the future. Two weeks ago, he noticed a swelling on his right breast but dismissed it. Over time, the swelling has grown larger and has become increasingly painful to touch in the past three days. This has started affecting his self-esteem, causing concern for his parents. After seeking advice from a local clinic, Fortune's dad discovered Helpster Charity, which then referred them to Rheema Hospital for further treatment.
Medical history
Fortune Nyangante, a 12-year-old girl with dreams of becoming an engineer, lives with her parents who work as casual labourers. She was diagnosed with a breast lump and received treatment at Rheemah Hospital, where she responded well. In addition, counselling and medical tests were done, and her father was referred for further checkup to support the family’s overall well-being. Helpster Charity covered all medical expenses, making it possible for Fortune to get the care she needed.The treatment brought hope and relief to the family, and Fortune is now recovering well and focusing on her dreams.The family is deeply grateful to Helpster Charity for their kindness and support.
Outcome
Some benign breast lumps, such as fibroadenomas or cysts, can cause discomfort, pain, or tenderness. Leaving them untreated may mean continued discomfort. Breast cancer, if left untreated, can continue to grow and spread to nearby tissues and lymph nodes. As it advances, it becomes more challenging to treat and may lead to more severe health consequences.
