After her husband had thrown her aside because of this tumor she came to our hospital, six days walk from her home. She was frightened at everything about us but, in her desperation, submitted to operation. A month later she returned home, possibly to regain her former husband or hunt for a new one. She was one of the most grateful patients we ever treated." Alexander Kemp, "Twenty Years of Medical Missionary Work in Africa."
