We salute Djenabou, a woman of courage today! The goiter began as a small lump on her neck and slowly progressed to a large mass constricting her airways. She said it made breathing difficult and caused regular bouts of painful coughing. When Djenabou thought about what her life would be like after surgery, she wasn’t focused on the relief of her physical pain. “I will be free,” she said simply, as a smile tugged on the corners of her mouth. For the first time in her adult life, she will no longer need to hide behind layers of fabric. Djenabou’s smile is dazzling! After her surgery, her biggest dream is simple: to find love. After living most of her life with the weight of the goiter, her fresh start finally means a possibility of finding her own “happily ever after.”
