"content": "oncologists. Cancer is becoming a major killer in this country. Patients’ screening should be made a priority. I am very passionate about this because I lost my mother in December, 2011 to ovarian cancer. During that period, I learnt that many people suffer from the disease not knowing what it is. They move from one hospital to another in the rural areas being treated for malaria. By the time they get actual diagnosis, the disease cannot be managed. The issue of awareness and early screening is important so that they are diagnosed and treated. Most cancers, when diagnosed at stage one, are treatable. However, if they progress and are noticed at stage three or four, they cannot be addressed. I would like to conclude by thanking all those who contributed. I would like to assure you that we will go round, make reports and debate on this matter. Before I conclude, I would like to request that pursuant to Standing Order No.51 (3), voting on this matter be deferred because it concerns counties so that we do it when hon. Senators are around. With those few remarks, I beg to move."
