Nepal Cancer Support Group

By ctaylorphoto | Published: September 9, 2010

I just found out that the dream of Siddhi Chand and Anju Sharma, (two incredible women that I had the privilege to meet and photograph in Kathmandu earlier this year) to have a real cancer support group in Nepal has been realized!!!!  These two amazing women have persevered and created an incredible resource for the people of Nepal.  “Nepal Cancer Support Group (NCSG) is a NGO which was established in 2010 with an intention to promote awareness regarding cancer prevention, screening, treatment, counselling, experience sharing and advocacy by accumulating cancer survivors,their family members, health professionals, social workers, interested individuals and volunteers to form a group”.  I am so happy for them I could burst!!!  Here is the link to their Facebook page Nepal Cancer Support Group, please help to support their tremendous efforts!

  • About Me


    I am a photographer living in Westchester county, NY. I have been shooting commercial advertising for the past 20 years. I recently received a small business grant from British Airways. I won 10 business class flights to any 4 destinations that BA flies. It was a contest based on a series of essays that I wrote explaining how face to face travel could change my business and help it take a more photo journalistic path. My essays talked about the fact that I am a survivor of ovarian and endometrial cancers, and that since I have been sick, I have been looking for an opportunity to travel around the world documenting photographically how women with cancer are intrinsically connected. I would like to show how our struggles, hopes, joys, and concerns have no borders. That we share a common bond, regardless of where we live around the globe. This blog is hopefully going to document this journey over the next year.
