Lady Who Got Amputated Due To Bone Cancer, Celebrates As She Becomes Oncology Nurse Specialist In U.K

A vibrant lady named
Chaikhwa Nani is estatic at the moment as she has gained admission in Birmingham University U.K. Sharing her story on how she got amputated on LinkedIn, she wrote;

Its with great pleasure to announce that I have been selected as a chevener 2021/22 to study MSc Clinical Oncology at University of Birmingham, UK from September 2021🥳🥳🥰.

Its been an emotional and life changing journey, starting with the 2013 Osteosarcoma (bone cancer) diagnosis that culminated in the above knee amputation of my left leg to stop the cancer spread, which was followed by months of chemotherapy and its side effects.

But as the saying goes, “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”…I not only consider my self a cancer survivor but an activist fighting for other patients through my work as a nurse.

Months after starting the chevening application I was awarded this prestigious scholarship on my first attempt..Thanks to the Chevening Awards for the opportunity.

🥂becoming an oncology nurse specialist.
