Abbian ‘Abbie’ Ntshabele has returned to hospital after picking up a fungal infection, a few weeks after her surgery.

Lerato Ntshabele, the mother of the 14-year-old who recently underwent a operation in Belgium for a rare cancer, Metastatic Immature Teratoma, had been re-admitted. “Abbie went back to theatre between March 27 and April 3 this year, for surgical procedures on the tummy. A post scan on March 26, 2015 showed fluid recollection in the tummy area and unfortunately it caused fungal infection and surgeons felt it was wise to disturb the wounds and wash out the fluid,” she said. Ntshabele said the same procedure was repeated on the April 3, adding that Abbie was put back on ventilation for 13 days where she needed help with her breathing and is on light oxygen.

Abbie will remain hospitalised until both the surgical and medical teams are satisfied.

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
