A doctor was flown in from Lagos to accompany Nchemty on his journey, a trip funded by his employers.

During his stay in the unit, Nchemty was supported by his uncle Philemon and his work colleagues from Green Peace. “We were sad to see him go but also grateful that we were able to help him return to his land, where he wants to spend his last days,” says Tersia Burger, CEO at Stepping Stone Hospice.
