Eliud Kaburu from Nyeri County was diagnosed with colon cancer over 30 years ago.
When doctors told him what the treatment entailed, he retorted that “as long as the treatment is not from the forest I am ready. The doctors laughed and they said they liked my confidence.”
Kaburu, 70, recounted to the Standard his three-decade journey battling colon cancer and recalls how one day “in 1989 while I was working as a driver, I fell terribly ill, my stool had blood in it, I collapsed.”
