Emma Ugolee: "Since My Kidneys Failed, Still Standing After About A Decade" by envoymedia(op): 2:59am On Nov 27, 2020
Media personality Emma Ugolee, whose kidneys failed about 10 years ago, took to Instagram to recount his journey while expressing gratitude that he survived what has killed many people, IgbereTV reports.

He explained that he has had 22 surgeries and one failed transplant since both kidneys failed. He has also had to endure 1, 296 sessions of dialysis and four 911 rides. Yet, he's still standing.

Sharing a photo of himself with tubes sticking out of his body and another photo of him smiling, he wrote:

"Look who is standing. Standing after about a decade since both kidneys failed.

After a failed transplant and 22 surgeries of all sorts, from the thighs to the eyes. With several cuts and scars

After four 911 rides and several near strolls to the other side.

After over 10 hospitals in 4 countries.

After 1,296.00 sessions of dialysis

After a colon cancer scare

After disappointments from men.

After almost a million dollars

After bouts of depression

Yes! Guess who is still standing?
Standing healthier, standing stronger, standing wiser, standing more hopeful and zesty than ever.
Doing everything he sets his mind to and making all his dreams come true

In the same journey where the graves have claimed many, on a day like this when everyone is grateful. I look back and then I look up and say Thank you Jehovah.

Look too at your journey and see that you too have every reason to salute the soldier in you. Keep fighting.

NB:Grateful to all of you for the support here.

#gratittude #thankfull.."

Emma Ugolee, one of the best entertainment connoisseurs in Nigeria. He's really been through a lot and I pray God continue to keep alive.

I have always learnt to thank God, if not for anything but just for being hale and hearty alone, one should never take that for granted.

if you read stories like this, you would realize all you need to ask from God is grace, for what is the use of toiling and gathering if you don't have a good health to enjoy it.

When it not time it's not time!

No angel or devil can kill anyone except whom He permits.

The Lord, sustainer and cherisher of all that exists!

Re: Emma Ugolee: "Since My Kidneys Failed, Still Standing After About A Decade" by Igbankpa(m):
This is nothing but grace at work. only if people look like what theve been through. when you feel life is dealing you dirty and you thinking of giving up just wait till you hear other people's story and you will have no choice but to give thanks for your own situation.

God bless every scientists that have put in effort to ensure a better life for humans. If things like this happened years ago, this guy would have kissed the dust
