GBTF Magazine

43 DZIDZO If I’d collapsed in Ghana, I might not be here telling you this story. Lemonade, Champagne, and the Spark for GBTF People say when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. I say: let’s make champagne—brains are too precious for the ordinary. The Ghana Brain Tumor Foundation was born from my desire to turn personal pain into collective progress, and from my realization that a dream only matters if it lifts others up. We will work to bring world-class neurosurgical care to Ghana, to help patients survive and recover, and to support families through their darkest hours. I share my story not just to mark my own survival, but to invite you to join me in reshaping brain tumor care in Ghana. Together, our journey can be about resilience, hope, and a future where no one faces a brain tumor alone. It is good to dream for dreaming is easy; it costs nothing. But the real power of a dream is in how it shifts someone else’s life. I quickly realized that this dream was bigger than me. To have any impact, I need you—all of you—to help make it real. “
