Meri Luvevou Qiolevu, a 39‑year‑old mother of four from Nawaka village in Nadi with maternal ties to Nadrau, Nadroga, discovered a lump in her left breast in 2019 and sought help from the Fiji Cancer Society. After tests at the Oncology Unit, she was diagnosed with breast cancer, experiencing pain in her shoulders and back. Though devastated at first, she chose surgery over herbal remedies and successfully underwent the procedure on 11 October 2021. Today, she is grateful and relieved, urging all Fijian women, especially mothers, to prioritize their health, seek medical care without fear when they notice abnormalities, and give thanks to God daily for His love and mercy.

Vokili Maraia Ali, a 39‑year‑old from Lautoka, was diagnosed in New Zealand on 18 May 2018 with Non‑Hodgkin’s Primary B‑Cell Mediastinal Lymphoma after experiencing a swollen neck and face, severe chest pain, breathlessness, and voice changes. Though the news brought a mix of emotions, she felt relief that her illness was finally identified and that she could receive proper care. Supported by her sister Daisy and the Fiji Cancer Society, she faced treatment with courage, even finding joy in the opportunity to travel during her journey.
