This is Gabriel Madinda a few days before his radiation treatment is due to start. For 4 years Gabriel ignored the lump growing on his jaw until it began to bleed and he couldn't ignore it anymore. Father of 5 and a farmer in a remote part of central Tanzania, Gabriel has a mixture of hopes and fears. He's hopeful that the treatment of his cancer will be successful, but fearful for his family's well-being while he's in hospital. He feels helpless being a days journey away from home with no way to communicate.
