‎Thanks to you all that have been supportive with donation and care for Aunty Esther 🙏🏾

‎Latest update is that she is responding to care. Her blood levels are being optimized for the next phase of care.

‎She was offered the option of blood transfusion before she can begin chemo, but she declined due to her faith. She is a Jehovah’s witness and thus, opting for other alternatives. Though it will take longer and cost more, we have to respect her religious belief.

‎The medical team has a diagnosis now, which is currently guiding her line of care. All funds will be channelled towards her medical bills and hospital care. Once again, thank you for your kindness 🙏🏾
