“DON’T be afraid, you are not alone,” says Reshmi Lata, a cancer survivor.
In sharing her story at the Ministry of Health’s Pinktober event in Labasa, Ms Lata encouraged everyone to fight cancer.
“Cancer is not a killer and we are here to fight it,” she said.
“Don’t be afraid. Stay positive and live like a normal person.”
Ms Lata was diagnosed with breast cancer that had reached stage four.
“I wasn’t frightened but went through the process and I am still surviving and am happy.”
Another survivor Mitieli Baravi who suffers from colorectal cancer believes God has kept him alive since 2016.
“I changed my diet and I only eat vegetables and fruits and the love of God has kept me well.”
