For the first time ever, Julius Agwu and his family are opening up in
details about the comedian’s terrifying brain tumour experience.
Speaking
exclusively to Inspaya, the 43-year-old funny man revealed how he began
to suffer memory loss and several seizures shortly after shooting the
TV series The Vendor.
“All I remember was I woke up in the hospital and heard the story of my being in coma. I lost my memory.” he said.
Julius’
wife, Ibiere and his sister Theresa also shared that the incident got
so bad to a point where he stopped moving and was almost taken to the
mortuary.
“So now I am going to be a widow, how do I manage with these children?” Ibiere stated were her thoughts at the time.
It
wasn’t until after a trip to an American hospital, that Julius
discovered he had three tumours in his brain with one that was the size
of a gulf ball. “I started looking for my property documents to give to
my wife. One day when they were not home, i almost committed suicide.”
Julius stated in the interview.
Following his successful surgery
at the Park Plaza Hospital in Houston, America in 2015, the funny man
decided to drop a thanksgiving song titled Second Chance. He has also
vowed to use all his platforms to glorify God.
Last year, the
father of two was hospitalized in London for stress-related issues
however he has since recovered and assured his fans that he is hale and
hearty.
