You are as ill as you feel & think you are, and yes, you need help), to be admitted to hospital, to find out the love of my life needed another surgery to remove a cancerous tumor while being sick and pregnant, to end up with an emergency c-section because the devil tried it with my life AGAIN, to a harrowing healing process…it was a lot.
“I want to thank all the doctors who looked after me in Lagos, Nigeria, and the team in Washington DC that pretty much saved my life. I am here, and I am grateful. I also want to thank God for my incredible husband. Banky, I love you to life.
“I also want to thank everyone who gave me grace in 2024, especially those who didn’t know what I was going through. I know I missed a lot. I was missing a lot, but you extended grace and wrapped me in so much love.
“My village people are incredible.
“God has used this season to stretch me and show me that I am capable of much more than I ever realized.
“Now? NOW, I am coming for everything that’s mine. Nothing and nobody can stop me.
“Ps I woke up to the best gift ever. @jemimaosunde came to surprise me”.
