Today we will tell you about our 21-year-old Gohar from Artsakh.
She is the second of 10 (yes, ten) children in the family and is very close to both her parents and all her siblings.
Gohar remembers the exact day and time when she found out about her diagnosis. On December 17th, 2020, at 4am the final results of her blood tests came in, and that’s when the initial diagnosis was confirmed – Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
At that time, our beauty was already a Dentistry Faculty student at the Armenian Medical Institute. Being a medical student helped her a lot while dealing with the side effects of the treatment, such as hair loss caused by chemotherapy, and having more philosophical approach to those. As a result, throughout the treatment process she refused to wear a wig.
The desire to continue her education and become a good specialist motivated and gave her strength throughout the treatment. This period coincided with the breakout of COVID-19 pandemic, which gave Gohar the opportunity not to interrupt her studies, but instead actively continue to join the classes remotely.
Speaking about her preferences, Gohar first of all mentions music, moreover, with the most unexpected stylistic combinations of hip-hop and classical genres. She also likes to watch comedies and medical TV series.
We are excited to tell you that Gohar has already completed the main treatment and is currently in the conservative treatment phase.
One of Gohar’s cherished wishes is having a professional photoshoot in traditional Armenian national costumes while wearing silver jewelry.
