Multiple award winning Nollywood actress cum singer Adesua Etomi-Wellington has opened up about her medical struggles in 2024, revealing that her husband also had his fair share.
Adesua made the revelation in her birthday message as she added a new year on February 22nd.
In the lengthy post shared on her Instagram page, the mother of two revealed that 2024 tried to take the wind out of her sail, sharing how she battled hyperemesis for months.
Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a severe type of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.
The morning sickness is so severe it can require hospitalisation and treatment with IV fluids, anti-nausea medication and in rare cases of continuing weight-loss, a feeding tube.
Adesua Etomi who marked her 7th wedding anniversary in November, added that while she was dealing with her own medical issues, the love of her life, her musician husband Olubankole Wellington aka Banky W, had another surgery to remove a cancerous tumor.
As if that was not enough, the actress disclosed 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 expressed her gratitude to her doctors who looked after her in Lagos, Nigeria, and Washington, DC. She also thanked everyone who showed her grace even when they didn’t know what she was going through. Her post reads:
