Somizi's message to Zoleka Mandela: What an inspiring spirit

Johannesburg – Somizi took #WCW to the next level when he used the opportunity to show love to cancer survivor, Zoleka Mandela, calling her “an inspiring spirit.”

Posting a snap of Zoleka on Instagram, Somizi wrote, “It took me a few seconds to notice the scar because her smile says ‘I’m confident, content and a winner’ on Monday she went for her 30th radiation for breast cancer. This wud be the 3rd time the devil resurfaces. But still she rises above. She’s now in remission (sic).”

Praising Zoleka for her bravery, the choreographer added, “What an inspiring spirit. A fighter. A winner.”

My #wcw?? goes to this hero of mine. This pic alone speaks volumes. It took me a few seconds to notice the scar because her smile says " I'm confident, content and a winner" on Monday she went for her 30th radiation for breast cancer. This Wud be the 3rd time the devil resurfaces. But still she rises above. She's now in remission. What an inspiring spirit. A fighter. A winner. To be quiet honest I'm a strong person but cancer has been on top of the list of things I thought I'm so afraid of. But zoleka u have given me hope that this can be conquered. U have just given life to someone out there who was just about to give up. Thank u. @zolekamandela
