He added that the hardest part in all this was the fact that he staying alone.

''Sometimes if you were not careful it can hit you mentally plus eating patterns get affected.''

Check out his long post;

''The 1st thing I decided to do was to get some good sleep when I woke up later I felt some weird test in my mouth and immediately I knew it.

This is covid. I guess is coz of growing up in western Kenya whereby we used to be hit by malaria a lot when we were kids!

So any sort of malaise in your body it's so easy for us to pick it out. Then when I went for the test I remember I was talking to the doctor and straight away I told him I have covid even before the results came out.

One thing I decided during this time is to not stress my mind and body, try to eat well (this is a myth during this time wah..) and just keep my focus on GOD for healing.

Few days after I started my self Isolation I remember calling my mum telling her how hard it is for me just to sit and wait for the 14 days to be over without going to work and she replied and told me "count yourself blessed, others are in hospital right now and they don't know if they'll make it"

Adding;

''That was the moment I started to look at life differently.

Btw I have lost more than 3kgs in less than 2 weeks! U know kwa mluhya wen appetite decides to travel and leave u it's dangerous!

The hardest part in all this is the fact that when u staying alone sometimes if u r not careful it can hit u mentally plus eating patterns gets affected.

New curveball every season, I have seen it all this year! but through and through I still believe that my GOD has greater plans for me.

Glory and honour TO JESUS CHRIST for my healing. Finally am fine.. well.. going back to work.''
