When Racheal got her baby girl in November last year, nothing prepared her for the numerous medical sojourns. While breastfeeding Amani, she noticed the little one never made direct eye contact. And when she did, there was white glow in the eyes, especially most evenings.
She consulted an eye doctor who confirmed her fears: Amani had retinoblastoma, a form of eye cancer common in children below five.
She was shocked, but the ophthalmologist reassured her the diagnosis was timely. Both eyes were saved. Today, baby Amani is a happy and healthy nine-month-old reaching all his milestones, watching and singing along his favourite cartoon, Cocomelon and learning to walk exploring his environment energetically.
