Homa Bay Boy Who Developed Mouth Cancer After Tooth Removal Given Days To Live: "Inafinya Mapua"

• Master Denzel Omondi Odiwuor's battle with rapidly progressing mouth cancer left him with just days to live, urging urgent intervention for life-saving treatment
• Innocent tooth removal led to excruciating pain and severe swelling, escalating into a dire condition now identified as aggressive mouth cancer, threatening his ability to eat and breathe
• With blocked airways and mounting medical expenses, Omondi's family sought financial aid and prayers to secure KSh 300,000 for vital treatment, as his life hangs in the balance

Homa Bay - Master Denzel Omondi Odiwuor has only a few days to live...well, unless something is done about the mouth cancer that has tormented him and shut his mouth.

Omondi's mouth starts swelling

In an interview with TUKO.co.ke, his uncle, John Owino, said that it all started with a tooth removal typical for kids around his age.

"After the tooth was removed, he started feeling a lot of pain in the mouth and shortly afterwards, it started swelling. Within a few days, the whole mouth was swollen," said Owino.

"The right jaw closed up completely; his tongue can't move as well. He cant eat or drink anything, and his mouth is discharging a lot of puss," he revealed.

Omondi was rushed to Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Referal Hospital for treatment, but after observation, they were told it was turning into mouth cancer.

Omondi needs KSh 300,000 for treatment

They were referred to Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital in Eldoret; to start treatment for the condition, they need KSh 300,000.

"The breathing pipes in the nose and gut have been blocked; the tumour is pressing the nose and one nostril is completely blocked by the tumour. If it continues to grow it will block his gut and other nostril; the boy will be no more," Owino said of the Nyandolo Primary School pupil.

Omondi's parents are jobless and can't afford the KSh 300,000 require for treatment. According to Owino, they were given a few days to get the money or the cancer will move rapidly and kill the boy.

"Let us save his life; I have been paying the bills, but this is too much for me. Pray for this lad; support him as he is supposed to be taken to Eldoret without failure. You can reach his parents on 0702975639," he said.

DJ Dizzo given 90 days to live still alive

In another story, a Disck Jockey from Rwanda diagnosed with terminal cancer and given 90 days to live in 2022 is still alive but sad that some people wanted him to die.

In 2022, DJ Dizzo raised over KSh 859,000 through GoFundMe to play in Rwanda one last time despite battling throat and waist cancers.

The New Times reports that the entertainer's inspiring journey continued as he said he looked forward to becoming a father and embraced life's precious moments.
