Quotes

“At this point, I am just taking things one day at a time because I have learned that sometimes you make plans and God has his own plans, so I am embracing everything that comes through.” – Anyoh Fombad

“I hope that this story that I shared with you will maybe encourage someone to go check themselves based on the symptoms that I listed or do that surgery if they have been afraid or just support some other person that they know who may be going through stuff like this.” – Anyoh Fombad

“We women, especially African women, go through so much. I can’t even stress how much we go through and we still brace ourselves; we still show up and show out. So this episode specifically is dedicated to all my African women. I just want to tell you to keep pushing regardless of whatever health issues that you may be facing.” – Anyoh Fombad
