- Doctors gave a seven-year-old boy in Cape Town just two weeks to live after diagnosing him with cancer that resisted chemotherapy
- However, three weeks later, the boy is still as strong as ever
- His family has called his defiance of cancer a miracle
Three weeks ago, doctors in Cape Town diagnosed a seven-year-old boy with stage 4 of a cancer known as neuroblastoma and gave him just two weeks to live. However, he is still alive and strong and was even seen riding a bicycle on Sunday.
Junaid Arendse and her mom Monique. He has defied cancer odds
Young Junaid Arendse initially complained of hip pain and his family took him to the hospital for examination. Doctors diagnosed him with cancer and told his family that it had spread to various parts of his body.
They also said it was resistant to chemotherapy and as a result, there was nothing they could do to help Junaid. Junaid's mother and grandmother were distraught at the news and sought prayers from their local church.
Junaid is as strong and vibrant as ever despite doctors' predictions
Three weeks later, Junaid shows no signs of slowing down on his life. He is as strong and vibrant as ever and was even seen riding a bicycle up and down his street on Sunday.
His grandmother Margaret is calling Junaid's defiance a miracle, while his mother Monique prays that her son's fight and zeal for life continues. She adds that her husband and Junaid's dad is in prison, and is hopeful that Junaid will still be alive when his dad is released next month.
