Renowned Kenyan gospel singer Anastacia Mukabwa alias Anastacia Mukwambi Kakii, best known for her hit song “Kiatu Kivue,” is reaching out to fans and well-wishers for financial assistance to aid in her medical treatment in India.
The beloved artiste, facing a daunting health challenge, shared her story with us, detailing the difficult journey she has been through and expressing her hope for recovery with the right medical intervention.
“I started tests in 2023 and the medics misled me, telling me the mammogram tests were nothing to worry about, so I just relaxed,” Anastacia recounted, reflecting on the initial phase of her medical ordeal.
However, the initial assurance did not hold.
“This year, however, I went for biopsy tests, and the results were very saddening. I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I even struggled to accept the results,” she said, her voice tinged with the weight of the news.
Anastacia has not yet commenced any form of treatment, opting instead to seek multiple opinions to ensure the accuracy of her diagnosis.
“I have done numerous tests with different doctors just to confirm whether the results given are correct and to be sure. I have not had any form of treatment and I will be receiving treatment outside the country,” she explained.
The journey has been challenging, but Anastacia remains hopeful, bolstered by the overwhelming support she has received from her close circles.
“I have received very good support. Accepting the results has not been easy, but Miss Atwoli has been very supportive in counseling, and my husband as well. My family has been very supportive,” she acknowledged.
Her faith and the support from her loved ones keep her spirits high.
“We have come from far and I know this is the last medical trip we are making. God will take control, so my fans out there can help me so that we hit the target we need for treatment,” she appealed passionately to her supporters.
Anastacia’s treatment is estimated to cost Ksh3 million, a substantial amount that she hopes to raise with the help of her fans and the wider community.
A poster shared by her team outlines the necessary financial target, urging well-wishers to contribute towards her crucial medical journey.
As Anastacia embarks on this challenging path, her unwavering faith and the collective support of her community stand as her pillars of strength, offering hope and resilience in the face of adversity.
