Amahle Needs A Lifesaving Match!
15-Year-Old Amahle Needs a Lifesaving Stem Cell Donor – It Could Be You
While most 15-year-olds are focused on choosing their subjects for Grade 10, Amahle’s reality took a devastating turn when she was diagnosed with Acute T Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. Now, she’s in urgent need of a matching stem cell donor to help save her life. That donor could be YOU.
Amahle's diagnosis.
It was around April 2024 when Amahle’s health began to decline. Her mother, Nombuso, initially thought her constant tiredness was just reluctance to do chores. However, she soon realized it was far more serious than everyday fatigue.
Despite seeking medical attention, doctors struggled to identify the cause of Amahle’s illness. By the time her June exams arrived, Amahle was barely able to concentrate, suffering from extreme fatigue and a loss of appetite. Soon after, Nombuso made the difficult decision to pull her out of her Grade 9 class.
As the months passed, Amahle’s condition continued to worsen. She was repeatedly misdiagnosed, and her prolonged fatigue and appetite loss persisted. Eventually, she was transferred to Inkosi Albert Luthuli Hospital, where she was diagnosed with Acute T Lymphoblastic Leukaemia.
Amahle now spends months at a time in the hospital undergoing chemotherapy, with only brief breaks at home before returning for another round of treatment.
