As her post circulated, users began to send donations, each transfer adding to a large sum that soon surpassed the amount she earlier hoped to gather.

Instead of receiving the sum of N400,000 required to settle her hospital costs, she eventually had an amount that exceeded her target by a wide margin.

When she realised the total amount collected, the young lady broke down, unable to contain the emotions that came with the sudden easing of a burden she had carried for months.

She expressed deep gratitude to everyone who had responded, reiterating how the support restored her confidence and made her feel seen at a moment when she feared being unable to continue her treatment.

Her mother also reacted emotionally, moved by the kindness shown to her daughter and the reassurance that she would no longer struggle to fund the last part of her therapy.

In the lady's words:

"Guysssssssssssssss. You people don’t know what you’ve done for me. I needed just 400k to finish my chemo and you raised 2 million naira for me. TWO. MILLION. I still can’t believe this is happening. What? Tears running down my face since morning. God just reminded me why I should never stop believing. My mum is crying."
