It is well known that chemotherapy often causes patients to have problems concentrating, adversely affecting brain function. Rehabilitation measures have been appointed to restore it.

Another art therapy class was held at the Foundation’s office. This time the Foundation’s wards drew and knitted. Knitting is an ideal activity to support the abilities of fine motor skills and all the activities of the central nervous system. And drawing develops creative thinking, improves memory, calms and relaxes. The participants, who do not have knitting skills, learned the basics of this process. And those who wanted to draw worked with pencils and coloring.

In the company of friends, the time of class flew by unnoticed! And the traditional tea party completed the art therapy program on this day!
