Kasaragod, July 25: Sauda, a 14 year-old daughter of Abdul Rahiman of Bayavalappu whose right leg was amputated due to cancer died in her house on Monday morning.


Sauda, an eighth standard student of the Angadimugar Higher Secondary School developed swelling on her right leg seven months ago. Doctors of a private hospital in Mangalore advised surgery.


Members of the Green Star Club and the Kerala Deseeya Vedi of Mogral admitted Sauda to the Regional Cancer Centre, Thiruvanandapuram six months ago where Sauda's right leg was amputated. After the surgery her agonizing pain on the leg stopped and she started walking using crutches. She hoped to continue her education as she told her relatives that she had got a rebirth after amputating her leg.


But last week she started feeling the pain all over her body. After admitting to the hospital for the second time, doctors concluded that cancer had spread to other parts of the body and there was no chance of recovery.


Two days ago she was admitted to a private hospital here. But she refused to take medicine and pleaded to take her back to her house as she decided to discontinue the medicine. She told her relatives that there was no chance of recovery and believed that she would die soon.


Students and staff of the Angadimgar Higher secondary school mourned her death and a holiday was declared for the school on Monday.
