I’m tired of this sickness, Leo Mezie cries out

Actor, Leo Mezie has cried out to Bliss recently concerning his state of health. In a telephone chat with Bliss, the actor, who was diagnosed with kidney related issues, has said he is tired of the protracted illness he has had over the years.

“I am tired of all this. I cannot be disturbing people for funds all the time. Things are hard for everybody. Everybody has one issue or the other so I should not burden people with my own. But the truth is that I am really tired.”

It would be recalled that some funds were raised for the actor some years ago over his health, which he also used to travel to the UK to get treated.

“But in the conversation with Bliss, Mezie said he actually went to the United Kingdom but no kidney transplant was done.

“When we went to the UK that time, we were told there was no need for that alarm as at that time. We were placed on medications and checkups. After a couple of weeks, the funds were not there to continue all those checks and balances. I relapsed and it got more serious. I tried to manage as much as I could.”

And as he got back to Nigeria, Mezie said his health deteriorated as such, he had to go back on dialysis.

“I am still on dialysis three times a week. All the while we have been doing fund raise, we have not been able to get enough funds. Any time funds were raised, we couldn’t just cross our legs and wait, we would still be doing dialysis and before you know it, the funds would get depleted again.”

“It has been so difficult for my family to ensure that I get dialysis done even if it is once a week. I am just hanging in there hoping that one day, one miracle will come,” he said.
