The beloved actor John Peasah, popularly known as Drogba from the hit series YOLO, is currently facing a major health crisis.
His sister, Hannah Mensah, has come forward to share details about his struggles after being diagnosed with a Demyelinating Disease.
Drogba’s health issues surfaced while filming a scene for the final season of YOLO, causing him to experience double vision and extreme sensitivity to light. As a result, he has been unable to tolerate daylight or flashing lights.
Hannah revealed that her brother is now housebound, receiving regular medical treatment for his condition. Various tests, including eye fluid extractions, have been conducted to determine the underlying cause of his symptoms, but the results are still pending.
“Drogba has weekly hospital appointments for check-ups and relies on medication to manage nerve-related pain, making it difficult for him to carry out everyday tasks on his own,” shared Ms. Mensah.
The family is anxiously awaiting the test results to determine the best course of treatment moving forward. They are also actively seeking financial assistance to help support Drogba in his ongoing battle with this health crisis.
