This student had more guts and determination than most. She was in her early twenties, but she had leukemia, which at the time was in remission. She always wore a scarf on her head because she had lost her hair during chemotherapy treatments.

Despite everything she was facing, she had a cheerful attitude. She was responsible, prepared, and determined to continue with her education. She missed only a couple of classes because of her illness and never expected special treatment. In fact, some of the other students were not even aware of her condition.
