News reaching our desk indicates that Carol Atuhirwe, a cancer patient at Mulago Hospital, has finally been flown to India for treatment.
Carol was supposed to travel to US for operation after raising over Ugx 270 million, through the Save Carol campaign, that was needed for the operation but her plans were foiled by a team of visiting surgeons from USA who indicated that they could no longer carry out surgery on Carol, and advised the Uganda Cancer Institute to find an alternative international health facility to handle her case.
The healthy facility was finally found and secured in India and as we write this Carol departed from Entebbe International airport yesterday heading to India for treatment and was escorted by her friends, well-wishers and family.
Here are photos of Carol before departing for India.
