Were it not for her friends in the media who went public about her cervical cancer diagnosis, Catherine Kasavuli prefers to carry out her craft in a quiet demeanour. True, she has been a TV personality for decades, but her comportment over those years has been one of grace and humility. It took her boss, Samuel Maina, at the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation to break the news of her illness which spread through the media fraternity like a wildfire.
