Cancer survivor dedicates masters degree to Dr Victor Calvagna

Cancer survivor dedicates masters degree to Dr Victor Calvagna

The late Puttinu founder and doctor Victor Calvagna left his mark on many throughout his life and career. Among them was Martina Fenech, who dedicated her Masters of Arts Degree in Health, Medicine and Society to the late doctor.

Posting to Facebook, Fenech opened up about how 10 years ago in March of 2012, she received her cancer diagnosis. She said that thanks to her family, friends but also Puttinu Cares, Calvagna and his team, she survived cancer. 

‘Yet, I did not stop there’ she said. ‘Perhaps it was part of my grieving, my own therapy, or anything else that led me to focus my studies on oncology from a social perspective.’ 

She revealed how she coincidentally graduated with her Masters of Arts, with a dissertation about life after cancer for childhood/teenager survivors, on the birthday of Calvagna, ‘her lifesaver’, himself. 

‘Dr. Victor Calvagna, I dedicate this masters to you as hadn’t it been for your courage to introduce paediatric oncology to these islands, I wouldn’t be here today with this research close to my heart’ she said. 

‘I did regret that I did not manage to give you my study for you to read as you requested, but am sure you are witnessing this from heaven with my guardian angels.’ 

She went on to send a strong message to other cancer patients. She said that despite having to stop her studies earlier on in life due to cancer, she managed to overcome all her obstacles.’

‘Do not give up. If you loved your life before cancer, do not be afraid of life after cancer. You will find beauty again.’

Dog abandoned because owner thought he was gay adopted by gay couple

A dog who was abandoned by his owner because he thought he was gay has been adopted by a gay couple. 

The dog, Fezco, was recently dumped at the Stanly County Animal Protective Services, which is an animal shelter in North Carolina. This was because his owner saw Fezco humping another male dog. 

According to staff at the shelter, the owner said he didn’t want a ‘gay dog’ and left him in the shelter’s care. The shelter took to Facebook to share Fezco’s story, describing him as getting along well with people and other animals. 

Fortunately, it did not take long before someone decided to come forward and welcome the dog into their family. Steve Nichols and his partner John had been together for over 30 years and came to Fezco’s rescue after hearing about the story. 

‘It’s just such a silly reason to turn in a dog’ said Nichols. ‘We just thought it would make sense for the gay dog to be adopted by a loving gay family.’ 

Nichols went on to open up about discrimination, saying that they’ve been subject to ‘that kind of bigotry and ignorance throughout our lives together, and we couldn’t always do anything about it.’

Fezco’s name was changed to Oscar after the late gay Irish poet Oscar Wilde. Addressing the issue, Dr William Pressly of Pressly Animal Hospital said that ‘mounting, thrusting and humping’ are normal behaviours exhibited by most dogs. All dogs do it.’
