After finishing her GCSE exams in 2021, she was told she had stage 3 nasopharyngeal carcinoma—a rare throat cancer located behind the nose. What followed was not only a battle with cancer but also with the way her diagnosis and treatment were communicated. Initially mistaking her flu-like symptoms for hay fever or a seasonal cold, Tashifa discovered a lump on her neck in early 2022.
