“Yesterday was a huge step to recovery for me ,
The last image was before my last surgery few months ago, have had 6 surgeries in total now and currently in therapy ,
That was the lump I had growing in between my vocal cords , after my tracheotomy tube was removed from my throat, the tracheotomy left my vocal cord ruined ,as it was an emergency surgery to save me cause I stopped breathing , and i couldn’t speak for months ,
A big thank you to all my Amazing team of doctors who have been working on me tirelessly for months to get me back on my feet and thanks to wonderful and my amazing family for being by my sides all through ,
all through this ordeal,
Told you all I was going to take two years off cause my doctors told me it will actually take two years to get me back to speaking and breathing properly again ,
Cause most times I stop breathing in my sleep
And my meds keeps making me blow up
I still wake up paralysed atimes ,
Still have a bad leg and still have pains from the implants in my neck ,
But in all I thank God
But it’s a year today and it can only my be the glory of the lord that I can hear myself speak and make sounds , and not struggle so much while I speak , while the chest pain is less ,
It’s not perfect but I’m grateful,
My thanks Giving and big come back is coming ,
Help me thank God for this new phase,
I’m on bended knees in his glory
Thank God we don’t look like what we are going through
Starting my speech therapy next week wish me luck ,
And a big thank you to my Amazing clients,
Fans , God bless you all.”
