During my recovery, Engineer Chika from Brain & Spine Foundation Africa provided invaluable support, inspiring me to keep going. My dreams of regaining my mobility and being there for my family remain strong, and I'm profoundly grateful for the assistance I've received, especially from my mother and Engineer Chika, who have been pillars of strength during this challenging journey.
