Amirul was diagnosed with nephroblastoma or
kidney cancer back in 1999. When his case was identified as cancer, it was at
Stage 4 and tumor has spread from left kidney to the blood vessel, close to the
heart. Within 3 years, he went for continuous chemotherapy, radiotherapy and
surgery, all necessary to survive and alhamdulillah, he finished his last
chemotherapy in 2001.
Recently he was back for semester break to join
our annual Youth Camp with the rest of survivors and contribute back to SCCS
through volunteering at the ward as well as our roadshows for Colour Rush. He
currently taking degree in TESL and now doing his best to continue to increase
awareness of childhood cancer and also spark hope within SCCS families and
survivors.
