Current State Of YOLO Actor Drogba’s Disease
It was reported on Friday, March that the actor diagnosed with a disease condition called Demyelination.
Demyelination is a disease that causes damage to the protective covering (myelin sheath) that surrounds nerve fibers in your brain, the nerves leading to the eyes (optic nerves) and spinal cord.
When the myelin sheath is damaged, nerve impulses slow or even stop, causing neurological problems.
His colleague actor Jeffrey Nortey was the one who broke the sad news and appealed for support and financial assistance for John Bredu Peasah popularly known as Drogba.
Following the news, Hannah Mensah, his sister has shared the ongoing condition and treatment processes for her brother, Drogba.
Speaking in an interview on Hitz FM on March 11, Hannah said Drogba has not been in the best of his health since the last season of the YOLO series.
They visit the hospital for once every week for treatment, she said. She also noted that they are at present awaiting a result of a test which had been flown outside Ghana for diagnosis.
“I think in his last season, if you can remember, he was not performing like he used to do in the previous season, he tried to act but could not. So, he has been in the house.
“Right now, we are in the hospital because of his eyes, he is having double vision with the right eye, and he’s having pain with it. We come once every week for treatment and medications prescribed.
“Last week, we came for the extraction of the fluid from his spine. And that is what we are waiting for the result. They said they have to take the test outside for more inquiries before we have the results out,” she stated.
Hannah added that her brother is still weak and only able to do some actions with help. She appealed for support from the general population to assist her brother to recuperate completely.
“In cash, in kind, in any way… a lot of people are calling, including a lot of doctors. People are calling with ideas. So we just pray that they have a solution,” she said.
