When Khadija came to house block three, she was put on a spur. She was always in her cell and she had to get help from her cellmate and other women on the spur. She couldn’t clean she couldn’t feed herself. She never left her room unless she was going to meds. With the help of her cellmate, we knew she couldn’t keep the food down, and she was weak and in pain, but no one really did anything, and nothing used to happen. One day, she was taken into hospital by ambulance, and we all got locked behind our doors during this

because they didn’t want us to see how sick she was. After she went into hospital, we found out she had stage four stomach cancer. Months later, I remember seeing her, and she looked much better. She was able to walk on her own without her cane and with no help, which showed that maybe if she had been taken to the hospital way before, she could have got help she needed. I worked in the kitchen, and we were told to just blend everything on the menu that she chose, and we didn’t do anything special for her, and sent it a soup or mush. Once in a while, she was sent a shake. That’s what kitchens used to give her with mild seasoning because of her stomach cancer, it’s such a shame she’s died. She was a lovely woman, and I’m sure her death could have been avoided if they just helped her before. Evidence from Jessica, who lived with Kaijah throughout sprint and summer of 2024.
