Nollywood actress Adesua Etomi is recalling her trials as she marks her birthday today, February 22nd.
In a lengthy post on her Instagram page, she revealed that 2024 tried to take the wind out of her sail, so she is grateful to be alive celebrating another year and God’s faithfulness. She disclosed that she was ill for months with hyperemesis and was admitted to the hospital, and her husband Banky W battles with a cancerous tumor, all while she was sick and pregnant.
Adesua further revealed that she underwent an emergency C-section because the devil tried with her life again and she had a harrowing healing process.
The mother of two appreciated her doctors who looked after her in Lagos, Nigeria, and Washington, DC. She also expressed gratitude to her Maker for her incredible husband and to everyone who gave her grace last year.
“IT’S MY BIRTHDAYYYYY!!!
Long post alert.
2024 really tried to take the wind out of my sail, so I am so grateful to be here celebrating my life and God’s faithfulness.
From being ill for months with hyperemesis (if you’re going through this, I see you. It’s not in your head. 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”.
