Popular Nollywood actress Sarah Martins was hospitalised following a sudden health emergency, which she later shared on her Instagram page. The actress recounted waking up unable to feel parts of her body and briefly fearing she was lifeless.
Despite the alarming symptoms, Sarah reportedly pushed herself to visit her shop to carry out inventory and conduct staff interviews, where she eventually collapsed and was taken to the hospital.
Doctors conducted more than 30 medical tests, including screenings for cancer, fibroids, liver and kidney function, malaria, and typhoid, all of which returned negative results.
In her post, the actress wrote:
*”Woke up today and couldn’t feel any part of my body. For a second, I felt lifeless. I still struggled and went to my stores to do inventory and a few interviews for incoming employees, and that was when I slumped.
All through December, I worked every single day, and even when my staff travelled for the season celebration, I still kept working. No days off, no stretches, no nothing… just a walking corps working tirelessly to cater for others, forgetting myself.
I did over 32 tests today, and all came out negative, including cancer, fibroid, liver, kidney, malaria, typhoid, etc. I guess God took proper care of my organs while I neglected my body.
I am typing this from a sick bed, but I will be fine because the God that protects the vulnerable kids I struggle for will never fail me. They said I’m extremely exhausted and need proper bed rest. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for your constant protection over my life.”*
Medical personnel have reportedly advised the actress to undergo complete rest due to extreme exhaustion. Fans and colleagues have since flooded her social media with prayers and well-wishes, expressing support for her recovery.
