A resident of Region Nine who had successful surgery to remove a malignant type of skin cancer from his leg, is grateful to Dr Wan Neng of the 12th Chinese Medical Brigade (CMB) for getting rid of the dreaded disease and preventing it from spreading to the rest of his body.
The man, Colin (only name given), did not mind one bit that becoming cancer-free meant his leg being amputated in the process.
He had sustained a wound to the back of his right leg when he was involved in a traffic accident a few years ago. He sought treatment continuously at the Lethem Hospital, but instead of healing, the wound became worse.
