Millyanne Mmbone was putting on her school shoes in 2017 when she noticed slight swelling on her right leg.

The Form Four student at Vigina Secondary School in Vihiga County thought it was strange but because she was running late for school, she did take time to check how serious it was.

Though she continued to feel pain in the affected leg, the 17-year-old Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination candidate carried on walking to and from school every day as usual.
