My Name is Susan, mother to HRH Queen Karen Kevin (An International Cervical Cancer Ambassador)

portrait of a beautiful african american woman.

My name is Suzan and this is my story. 

During my days as young lass, i had swelling dreams of becoming the lady whom the crown fits. I scampered from audition to audition, from one beauty contest to another all because of the unquenchable enthusiasm i had to become an Ambassador and a cervical cancer awareness campaign leader

I've heard and seen people die of different cancer diseases, I’ve read papers, watched TV and have seen groups campaign for the total eradication of these deadly diseases lurking around human race, hence the passion to join this fight encompassed me.
I tried many possible platforms within my reach, but all to no avail. I have always desired to be a role model to many, dreamt of becoming that woman that is worthy of emulation, someone from whom to seek council. My hopes were dashing. Frustration was beginning to set in. The moderators and event owners turned blind eye to my flairs during each contest, they couldn't pay heed to my natural inclinations. I cradled every miniature opportunity i get meticulously. The intensive propensity inculcated in me was dwindling. It was as though winds were against my progress. Time wasn't becoming friendly to me anymore, the clock was ticking fast, age wasn't on my side either. Then i met and fell head over heels in love with my beau, Kevin.

Kevin was a young vibrant man pulsating with life and vigor, with bigger dreams and hopes. He never stopped working hard. He tutored me. He stood by me and believed in my dreams. He became my succor, my solace in times of solitude, my inspiration. Always offers me his tireless shoulders to cry on in times of distress. I may not have accomplished the dream i crave for, which was to be a beauty queen, but i have a wonderful, dedicated and long-suffering man who is ever ready to work the lonely miles with me. 
A year after our courtship, we were joined together in holy matrimony. I won the queen of his heart and his home. His diadem perfectly fitted on my head, implying rank of dignity and preeminence. I couldn't have asked for more. Marrying Kevin was the best beauty contest i unregretful signed up for. We started raising kids…

https://fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net/rsrc.php/v2/y4/r/-PAXP-deijE.gifEighteen years had slipped by…. Our first child Karen - full of talents and dreams, vivacious and kinetic in nature. God's love and perfection radiates in her. She has always been a fortuitous and meticulous child  from the onset of time. I always make sure she actualizes whatever she sets her mind to. She was growing pretty fast with such a magnificent sight to behold , very pulchritudinous and gregarious. Our daughter has bagged many accolades even as a kid and has already been a role model to many, both Moppets and teeny boppers as well as grown-ups started emulating her fashion mode and locution. Each time i stare into her eyes i see a mini me, i see someone who would never give up on her dreams. I know she would tread on the paths i couldn't.

Years later, Kevin and I had three more kids as lovely and lively as Karen. Karen became a caring big sister to her younger siblings. She's very prudential and articulate in carrying out her duties. Karen always cuddle them and wrap them up with extreme conscientiousness that awes me. She knows what to do all the time even without an adult supervision…A mother in the making.

When Karen emerged 21 years of age, she was deeply engrossed to participate for one of the biggest and famous beauty contest of our time; QUEEN OF EMERALD NIGERIAa beauty pageant which is set to emerge beauty queens whose prior objective is to champion the fight against cervical cancer in Nigeria and beyond ,thus becoming an International Cervical cancer Ambassador.

Karen grew up with the same passion her mother had, the passion to be a campaigner and an Ambassador for cervical cancer. Unlike her mum, she won not just the crown but the heart of many. And today, she has gone places within and outside Nigeria with the sponsorship of both the organizers and international Cervical Cancer organizations to spread the word by raising awareness by setting up cervical awareness programmes in both secondary and tertiary institutions, market places and cooperate establishments.

I am Susan,the mother of an International Cervical Cancer Ambassador.

lets join the fight against Cervical Cancer with Queen of Emerald Nigeria organization.
