Onward’s Journey with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: From Struggles to Hope – The Max Foundation
The Max Foundation shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Onward is a 45-year-old farmer living in Zimbabwe with his wife, Tabeth, and their four children. In 2014, he started feeling weak and losing weight and noticed he couldn’t cycle as far.
When Onward was first diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), he spent many sleepless nights thinking about his future. Now, 11 years later, he advocates and provides support for other people going through the same thing.
“I am now living a normal life and enjoying my cycling, and gardening, and forgetting about CML, I only remember that I am a patient when it’s time to take my medication,” he said. “I now have hope, and I am able to instill hope to newly diagnosed patients.”
You can read his full story here.”
