Aimee Soon (left) and Mei Ng became best friends soon after meeting each other while undergoing treatment for cancer.

To some, being diagnosed with cancer may seem like the end of the world. But to Mei Ng, 39, and Aimee Soon, 42, it was just the beginning of a new journey in life.

When both Ng and Soon were pregnant, they were diagnosed with breast cancer. But despite feeling devastated about their illness, the pair, who met while undergoing chemotherapy treatment at the hospital, decided to do something positive to cheer themselves up.
