Battle Cry of a cancer Survivor “Today we Cry, Tomorrow we Fight!”

Zakithi Mgiliya, Hodgkins’ Lymphoma cancer Survivor and cyclist for CANSA Active in the Virgin Active SA Ride Joburg 2022, shares about her cancer journey and how cycling helped her through. “One thing I have learned from this journey is that there are a handful of things that truly matter in anybody’s life. Identify those things and enjoy them because in the twinkle of an eye, your life can flip into the unimaginable. So, live like the breath you are taking now, is your last.”
