Doctor shares touching letter from cancer patient who passed away
A Nigerian doctor opens up about a heartfelt letter he received from a cancer patient who had passed away, leaving him deeply moved.
In an emotional video shared by @draizident on TikTok, he recounted his experience with the woman, affectionately referred to as “Madam Teacher.”
The doctor revealed that he first met Madam Teacher during her diagnosis when he had to break the news about her cancer. Their connection grew, but he was eventually transferred to another unit, preventing him from visiting her regularly as she continued her fight against the illness.
When he finally returned to her ward, he learned of her passing and was handed a letter she had written to him before her death.
The letter’s contents brought him to tears, as it highlighted the impact of their brief but meaningful relationship.
Reflecting on the experience, he shared insights about the emotional toll that such encounters can have on Nigerian doctors, who often face high demands with limited resources.
“I don’t think I will still cry much, but this is an experience I will carry for the rest of my life,” the doctor stated partly.
