Actress Omotola Jalade recently took to social media to express her gratitude for life and health after a harrowing medical ordeal.
Sharing a video of her hospital experience, Omotola recounted the intense pain she endured over several days, during which doctors struggled to identify the cause of her suffering despite multiple tests. At one point, she was told there was nothing more they could do.
Eventually, the root cause was identified—her gall bladder had become severely dilated, requiring immediate surgery.
The actress detailed the frightening experience in a heartfelt post on Instagram:
"Happy Thanksgiving!
🍁🦃🍽 Please join me in thanking God for life and good health.
Have you ever been told by a doctor, 'There's nothing more we can do,' while feeling like you’re dying? That was my reality.
I had been experiencing intense back and chest pains, leading to two emergency room visits in one week.
The doctors suspected high blood pressure and acid reflux, but the symptoms would mysteriously subside the next day. By the third episode, after a night of severe vomiting and excruciating stomach pain, I was rushed back to the hospital.
This time, after undergoing CT scans, an ultrasound, and an MRI, doctors discovered my gall bladder was dangerously dilated. Surgery was unavoidable. The medical team was shocked at how much pain I had endured.
Today, I am grateful to God for preserving my life. Whether or not you’re celebrating Thanksgiving, take a moment to thank God—not just for life but for good health and the ability to dream of brighter days ahead."
Omotola’s testimony serves as a reminder to cherish the blessings of life, health, and resilience. She ended her post with a heartfelt message to her followers:
“#HappyThanksgiving, friends. God is good. 🙏🏽”
This inspiring account of survival has resonated with fans worldwide, who continue to shower her with love and prayers.
