“Cancer was and will always be the monster that killed our mother.”

Those were the words of Davila Speight the eldest of the five Speight siblings who lost their mother, Adi Litia Levulevu Iloilo Speight to cervical cancer in 1996.

At the time of her mother’s passing Davila said she was 14, Lucy 13, Sam 10, Henry 7 and Jerry the youngest 4.

Davila said their mother was a strong woman and because she wanted to protect them so much, she did not disclose her sickness until just a few months before she passed away.
