In the letter, Sitawa reflects on the difficult journey her family has been navigating, one that has forced her children to confront fears beyond their years.
She acknowledges the quiet strength they have shown, even in moments when they thought she wasn’t watching.
“I know things have been hard. I know you’ve seen things and felt fears that children should never have to carry,” she writes, recognising the emotional toll the illness has taken on her young family.
Sitawa’s children her heroes
Sitawa describes her children as the very reason she continues to fight, drawing strength from their presence and the future she dreams of witnessing.
In a poignant reversal of roles, she calls her children her “heroes”, crediting their courage and faith for sustaining her through the most difficult days.
“When the cancer feels heavy and the days feel long, it is the thought of your smiles, your voices and your futures that gives me the strength to take the next breath,” she shares.
It is a reminder that even in the face of illness, resilience often becomes a shared effort within families. Her promise to them is unwavering: that she is giving everything she has to the fight.
