"An MRI scan revealed that I had 3 tumors in my brain.. I almost committed suicide one day" - Julius Agwu
In an interview with Inspaya, Comedian Julius Agwu and
his wife, Ibiere, have recounted what they faced during his
terrifying ordeal with brain tumours. Revealing what went
down, Ibiere Agwu said:
"The first seizure, I was actually in the room when it
started. I was talking to him and all of a sudden, he's
looking up and .. I called the doctor on our way to the
hospital and he was like, Yes, he's there. On the way to
the hospital, the seizure came again and I started praying.
We got to a point where everything just stopped.
'So now I'm going to be a widow? How do I manage with
this children? So I'll come back home and people would
call me and ask me, what would I say? That what? He's
dead? We would start planning for burial?'
"All those thoughts just kept coming. I was praying, at a
point the doctor too started praying with me.
After a while,
for someone that couldn't just move, couldn't feel
anything, nothing was happening...he just moved his hand.
The doctor and I looked at each other. He had no
recollection of who came to see him the day..like two days
after. When I come most times, he looks at me and
(moves head around) he's trying to figure out who I am.
On his 3 brain tumours, Ibiere said:
"The one at the back, they said was the size of a golf ball,
and they were 2 in front, those ones were kind of inside.
The whole process actually brought me to a point where
sometimes I sit and I question God and I'm like, I'm still
yoiung. Why do I have to go through all of this at my age?"
Speaking about the terrifying life and death situation he
found himself in, Julius said:
"I'm a living testimony of God's miracles.
My business is
show business. I need to show for the business to come.
What I remember was the fact that I woke up in the
hospital, and then I heard the story of my being in coma. I
lost my memory. I remember my Father who died in 2002
telling me to go back."
Adding that he told his wife they had to leave Nigeria to
find out what exactly was going on:
"We can't continue this, let's go to America and find out
what the cause of this thing is. An MRI scan now revealed
that I had 3 tumors in my brain. I started looking for my
property documents and giving my wife. One day, they
were not home and I almost committed suicide. I call it
second chance. That's God saying this is your own second
chance. After that experience, I decided to a thanksgiving
song to God and it's titled second chance,. My covenant is
that I would use all my platforms to glorify him."
Julius elder sister, Theresa Agwu also said: " I had this
belief that as a good man, with the good heart that he has,
that he's not going to die. God won't let him die. Doctor
already told me that they want to take him to the
mortuary."
