Ohemaa Mercy recounts harrowing childbirth experience [Video]

Gospel musician, Ohemaa Mercy has shared the deeply personal and challenging experience she endured during childbirth.

In an interview on Adom TV, she said it was a life-threatening situation after being in labour for three days.

Ohemaa Mercy went into labour on a Tuesday, and by Friday, her child had still not arrived, despite medical interventions.

She recounted how the complicated labour posed significant risks to both her and her baby and the medical team decided to perform an emergency caesarean section.

The surgery, though successful, was followed by a further complication. Just a week later, her surgical stitches removed, causing her wound to open.

Due to this complication, Ohemaa Mercy said she was rushed to the theatre for another surgery to save her life.

Whiles the doctors were battling to save her life, the gospel musician said she was thinking about the medical bills.

This, she stated put her through physical and emotional stress.

However, in what Ohemaa Mercy describes as a miraculous intervention, her mother’s friend, a nurse, stepped in with alternative treatment and also provided essential support during this critical period.

For six months, Ohemaa Mercy said she had to walk with caution, bending to prevent further strain on her wound.

Ohemaa Mercy said the challenging recovery process not only tested her strength but also her faith.

She indicated that, being alive today is a testament of the goodness of God.
