Heena’s determination; Standing tall with each fall

It was during the lively days of the presidential election. Heena, was managing important responsibilities of the then opposition party, PNC, when the devastating news of her health came to light; she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Filled with shock, distress and disbelief, her world had felt like it was ending.

With today’s celebration of Cancer day, Heena, former TV anchor who now serves as CEO of NSPA (National Social Protection Agency), wrote on Facebook that after leaving her fate in God’s hands, she had hastily begun her treatment, blissfully unaware of the challenges and pain it would bring her.
