Cassper Nyovest weighs in with help for a Lung Transplant patient
Cassper Nyovest has seen himself trending for good reasons. Nyovest recently weighed in for a lung transplant patient with some financial aid and a go fund me advert. We can all agree that few celebs weigh into matters likes this. Father to Khutso, the cub to his jungle, Cassper Nyovest has done it again.
26-year-old Nompilo from Swaziland has been living with Cystic Fibrosis (CF), a genetic disorder that causes severe damage to the lungs, digestive system and other organs in the body.
Nompilo is at the end stage of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and is said to be shutting down. She lived without medication that would treat CF for most of her life and because of that, her lungs are “exhibiting traits of the prolonged and painful decline, as represented by a recent lung function test which showed her lungs can intake only 9% of oxygen”.
Nompilo sought help from South Africa (the nearest country to Swaziland) but the doctors informed her that they will not be able to perform the surgery since she is not a citizen of the country.

A lung transplant in India is now her only hope for a better life. A GoFundMe campaign was started to raise the funds for the lung transplant which costs almost 2 million rands but only $4,824 (R68230.17) has been raised of the $100,000 (R1414390.00) goal.
The funds raised through the campaign will help Nompilo travel to India and get transplant surgery. Nompilo had lost all hope when Cassper came around and offered to be of assistance.
She said on Twitter: “Tomorrow my psychologist is preparing me for my next life since I’m at the end stage, so now I have to live my life knowing I might die soon, since lung transplant us far-fetched for now, Doctors are just going to try all they can to keep me in less pain and help me transition well”
Cassper said, “Hi Nkhosi. Your strength is encouraging. I am trying to get more info about how we can help with your current condition. I see there is a GoFundMe to raise 2M rand. Is that a medical bill or a guarantee of a new set of lungs? We wanna help raise awareness and the funds as well. How can we help exactly”
This has touched Nompilo and she seems to be very appreciative of the act of kindness that Mufasa is offering her. Nompilo has been a ray of sunlight to everyone on her social media and has kept the positive energy. As she topped the trends list in Swaziland under hashtag #SaveNompilo, people have shown her nothing but love and are pleading for assistance for anyone who may be able to.
