I found solace in God – Breast cancer survivor recounts healing journey

Breast cancer survivor, Fafa Gozo has shared how she was healed from the deadly disease three years ago.

Recounting her enduring process after she was diagnosed with breast cancer, she narrated that she joined almost all prayer platforms in Ghana to seek favour from God and healing grace because she believed it was spiritual.

When she noticed an unusual change in her breast, Mrs. Gozo visited a hospital for a check-up but was told the test result would be ready in four weeks.

According to her on Joy Prime’s Changes show, it traumatised her and triggered nightmares, which caused fear as she was scared of death due to stories she heard about the condition.

“Those 4 weeks were the craziest moments of my life. I couldn’t eat because I lost appetite completely. Even at times, waking up to use the washroom and take a shower was so difficult. I became weak because when I woke up every day, the question was, when the result came and I’m tested positive, what was the next step? That trauma alone gave me sleepless nights, and anytime I slept, I had a nightmare; whispers of the devil and it was like I’m going to die. At a point I didn’t want to sleep, but I found solace in God. I was on all the prayer platforms because I couldn’t sleep, and it was draining me,” she told Roselyn Felli.

Fast forward, the results were out, and she was diagnosed with stage four of invasive ductal carcinoma, a breast cancer type that happens when abnormal cells growing in the lining of the milk ducts change and invade breast tissue beyond the walls of the duct.

After several years of research on the treatment of the ailment, she resorted to herbal medication because she thought the hospital treatment procedure would be impossible. But after a month, the lump aggravated, and she stopped taking the herbs she was given.

While in the sick bed, all hope was lost, but she strengthened her faith, believing and hoping that things would turn around for her to be healed miraculously like others who she was with at the hospital. But she went through the medical process and opted for a six-month chemotherapy before surgery.

Through it all, Mrs. Gozo shared how she was calmed by listening to the songs of gospel singers Nacee, Sonnie Badu, and Diana Hamilton

“I was playing Sonnie Badu’s songs. I could just go on YouTube, look for an album, and play. Nacee’s song, ‘Aseda’ kept me. It was like he sang it for me and Diana Hamilton’s ‘My Meditations’. At that point, I realised when I was listening to the music, the lyrics were working for me.”

Her ordeal makes her testify to her friends that she has encountered God throughout the period.

Fafa Gozo is forever grateful to God for guiding her through the procedure successfully and for her complete healing. She shares her story to inspire others and is willing to support other breast cancer patients in any way possible to help them heal.
