Cancer sufferer, Modie Chirinda

TellZim Reporter

Modie Chirinda was diagnosed with cervical cancer in 2011 and is pleading with well-wishers to help her meet the treatment costs and other daily costs of living with the condition.
The 51-year-old Chirinda comes from Svuure village, under Chief Bota in Zaka.
“I have to undergo chemotherapy twice a month and I also have to buy adult diapers, betadine bath and three and half pints of blood. I don’t have the means to get all the money that is required and I am often in pain.
“I haven’t settled all my bills at Parirenyatwa. There is a short fall from the amount I received from some well-wishers.
She also revealed that it costs US$75 for her to undergo a single chemotherapy session at the hospital.
“I also have to find transport money to travel to and from Harare for the treatment. The diapers cost US$10 for a packet of 10 which is not even enough to last me for a week,” said Chirinda.
Those who want to help Chirinda can contact her at her number 0783 908 602 or visit her on 13 Carry Street, Rhodene, Masvingo.local,health
