Cancer! You WILL BE defeated!!!!
This is a story of a single mum- Sophia Atieno- who came to South Africa for a better life.
Sophia was a young girl of great health and was determined to make a life for herself. She was privileged and blessed to have started her studies at Rhodes University and graduated with an LLB.
She then moved to Cape Town for greener pastures and was blessed with a baby boy after a few years.
Life was pretty ok, with its obvious ups and downs UNTIL in late January when she started complaining about severe back aches. She had earlier that season taken her life back and was at the gym, lost almost 20 kgs, was eating healthy all in an attempt to take control of her life after suffering a series of setbacks through mental and physical health challenges.
One night, the pain became unbearable and she through some friends' help was able to access medical care - for her back - only to be diagnosed with STAGE 4 MESTATIZED CANCER.
Her cancer was diagnosed to be Estrogen positive - Meaning that her Estrogen was keeping her cancer alive and had to start on hormone inhibitors immediately. ( Who would think the bare essence of being a woman would eat you up from the inside) .
As at now, we have been able to raise some funds for the 3 rounds of radiation though the second part of the treatment requires about USD 10000.
Friends and family are coming together to help in this cause.
We will also be having breakfast in the coming month ( March 2024) as a fundraiser and as well as to get together.
Keep her in your prayers and thoughts as we fight this together.
Shout out to the brave warriors out there who might also be in the same bandwagon. May God's amazing grace and healing be your portion.
With love from
Sophia Aloo Cancer Fundraising Committee.
