Meet Mohamad Qayyum Nashwan the Childhood Cancer Fighter. This story was shared by his mother; compiled by Cikgu Kai Syn.
“The journey started when the result of the biopsy came out and Qayyum was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma (Muscle Cancer); that was only 6 months after he was born. It wasn’t easy to accept the fact that their beloved child had cancer BUT parents would do whatever it takes for their child.
She recalled one of many challenging moments when they took care of Qayyum – it was during one of his surgeries. They found out that Qayyum had post-surgery complications and a high-risk surgery was required in order to stop the complications. It was such a painful moment to go through as they had to make a decision that would change the course of his life.
Now Qayyum is still going through his treatments. In total, 8 cycles of chemotherapy, 4 surgeries in a span of almost 1 year of cancer treatment. She hopes that he will be healthy, grow up and go to school with his siblings once the treatment is complete.”
