Sarah was diagnosed with breast cancer early 2012 and had a surgery. She spent three months in New Zealand in order to get Radio-Therapy treatments.

In August, after being hospitalized at Moototua, she was given the sad news that she should go home to spend much time with her family as doctors can’t do anything else for her. Morphine pills were given to help with the constant pain.

Right now, Sarah is no longer on morphine as she’s taking medicine provided to her by Jane & her family, who is also a cancer survivor. The medicine comes all the way from the United States of America.

To augment the necessary finances needed to keep the constant supply of Sarah’s medicine, a Zumba fundraising with the Fanalee Zumba team will be held this coming Saturday.

It be held at the SCOPA Hall, Vaivase; the fee costs $5.00.

According to the website of the Samoa Cancer Society, In Samoa breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women in line with similar trends worldwide.

Breast cancer symptoms vary widely — from lumps to swelling to skin changes — and many breast cancers have no obvious symptoms at all. Symptoms that are similar to those of breast cancer may be the result of non-cancerous conditions like infection or a cyst.
