Tweeps inundated the tweet with well wishes and prayers for Zoleka
My only worry is those young children of hers. They still need their Mother, the thing with cancer is when it is in remission it comes back and it comes back more brutal than ever. Strength to her.đź’”

Being informed of your terminal illness is a blessing from God. He is letting you know how long you have left so you can spend your last days on earth working on your salvation by getting baptized in water and the Holy Spirit. You should not spend your last days on leisure etc

Idk how much one person can go thru. Her upbringing wasn’t so “glamorous” as we’d think, alcohol, sex and drug addiction, losing children, cancer over n over again, losing ur grandma THEN 2yrs later ur mom, marriage not working out, baby daddy leaves u THEN terminal cancer.💔💔 pic.twitter.com/Bzuy14C38j

I just see God's grace in you, I love you, and what you going through is felt by many. Be comforted that your children will be under God's sovereignty and they are going to have good memories of you after you being called home. You are in my prayers always.

"Yesterday (29.08.2022) marked my official diagnosis, the CT scan has revealed cancer both in my liver and lungs. I am yet to receive feedback regarding my Bone scan, to establish whether I have cancer beyond my ribs. I am hanging on by a thread.
She also thanked all who have been praying for her recovery. "Thank you all for your outpouring of love, prayer, and support. Peace. Passion. Positivity," she wrote.
The diagnosis came after she decided to consult her GP, who diagnosed her with Bone metastasis - a condition in which cancer cells spread from their original site to the bone.
