Madlene Cherop, 23, and her father Sergeant Richard have flown to India seven times in the past six years seeking medication in which two surgical operations, embolization and radiosurgery were done to treat her brain haemorrhage.
They all failed since the condition recurred.
But after battling the rare brain condition known as Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) for seven years, Madlene underwent a successful surgery a week ago to remove it.
She has been in and out of the hospital, suffering from severe headaches and could sometimes pass out since 2014 when she was a student at Bishop Njenga Girls’ High School.
