'When I was India I met Kenyans battling cancer it was a very sad state of affairs.

to watch them struggling and the stress their families were put through.

There is two particular families I really felt pity for and I paid their bills.

One of the patients later died and I do not know where the second patient is at the moment.'

'When it came back again we even tried PRPP a nuclear kind of treatment that is new and it's being used on cancer patients, But even that did not work.'
