A 20-year-old girl who this website wrote about yesterday having failed to join university because of nerve cancer has passed on. Sarah Munaba succumbed to cancer on Wednesday morning at 8:00 am, friends have told this website.
Munaba, a student who was meant to join university this year and daughter to Namuli Sulaina- both residents of Busaabala has for the past one and a half years been bed ridden with Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor and has been receiving treatment from home. This was due to the huge hospital bills that her single mother failed to foot. She passed on at Norvick Hospital where relatives rushed her Tuesday evening after the situation had worsened.
Doctors say that she contracted this type of cancer from a watch she used to wear which affected her left arm. By the time of jotting down this story, Munaba’s body was still at Norvick hospital mortuary as burial preparations are under way.
“I have known Sara from 2011. She was a very good hearted, jolly and happy girl. One thing I know is that she lived her life to the fullest during her happy days while at Mengo SS,” Benon Owori, a close friend to Munaba eulogised.
Burial arrangements have not yet been communicated. May her soul rest in eternal peace.
