Mercy Johnson speaks about cancer: Mercy Johnson, a Nollywood actress, has shared for the first time how she overcame cancer and had a procedure that changed her life.
This revelation was made by Mercy Johnson in the most recent edition of her cooking show on YouTube, when she was joined by Joke Silva as a special guest for a conversation. Mercy Johnson questioned Joke Silver about the condition of seasoned actor Olu Jacobs during the program.
Following the response from Joke, Mercy shared her story of how she was put on medication for life when she was diagnosed with cancer.
Mercy Johnson speaks about cancer: She said;
“… Odi [her husband] and I have actually been here and I have never discussed it where we had, like uhm, a scare. I had a cancer scare in quote and I had like my thyroid removed. And it was like a journey for us because we had kids.
My last was six months at that time and then we kept on saying “okay, we have to understand that this is the new us, let’s go get the surgery done”. And then we got there, they said I was going to be on medication for the rest of my life and it was a reality that we had to sit down.
You know, them giving me a timing and telling me you can’t miss your medication. Once you wake up that day, that’s the first thing. Telling me all of the side effects. So I’m reconciling with this you’re saying, it’s the truth. At the point you realize this is where we are, let’s grow from here, let’s live in this comfort zone.” Mercy Johnson speaks about cancer
