Anastacia Mukabwa's appeal for financial assistance
Last month, the renowned Kenyan gospel reached out to fans and well-wishers for financial assistance to aid in her medical treatment in India.
Speaking to this Pulselive.co.ke newsdesk, Anastacia detailed the circumstances leading to her current situation and expressed her optimism about recovering 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," she shared.
Unfortunately, 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," said Mukabwa.
Anastacia, who has not yet commenced any form of treatment, has been seeking 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.
Well-wishers responded to the request made by the legendary gospel singer, enabling her to seek treatment.
