Cancer Survivor
"I never thought I would say these words, but I am a cancer survivor. When I was diagnosed, my world stopped. Fear took over — fear of treatment, fear of pain, fear of the unknown."
With faith, courage, and support from the Nigerian Cancer Society, I faced every step of the journey. Today, I share my story to give strength and awareness to others.
