Sarah Ofili celebrates her mom on her 67th birthday as she opens up on her near-death experience

Sarah recounted the scary experience on Instagram. She said she and her mother had flown to France to attend her brother’s wedding ceremony. All through the flight her mother was a little ill. And 48hours after, she was hospitalised and went into coma.

Doctors told her family to say their last goodbyes. 

They said her mother had contacted ecoli in Nigeria and her body had gone into septic shock. 

At that point, Sarah said she needed help and called her friends but they turned her down. She however said the person that stood by her then was her boyfriend, now husband. 

Celebrating her mom, the model wrote;

”Happy Birthday To My Mummy! Strongest woman ever liveth! I don’t share my life struggles here on the gram coz I hate dwelling on the past and sadness. But I have come to realise that sometimes we touch hearts with our own experiences. 3yrs ago I and my Mum flew to France for my brothers wedding, she was feeling a lil sick throughout the flight. Upon arriving France, within 48hrs my Mum went into Coma! Yup u read right! From slight headache to fever to straight coma! (Swipe to see d pic in hospital) And then on it was one organ failure to another. In fact the doctors had said we shld prepare for the worst n say our goodbyes. That was the first time I saw my older bro cry. Believe me when I say he’s a macho man chief sergeant in the army.. sigh. Well eventually she was diagnosed with contacting ecoli somehow in Nigeria and her body went into septic shock. During this period I lost some so called “friends” who I actually turned to for help… yes the classic when u need pple u really know ur friends blablabla…Long story short… in the midst of the sadness waiting patiently by her bedside, my bf then ( now husband) flew to be by my side. He had planned a beautiful proposal but had to stop it due to the situation, he did still propose tho… and on That very day he proposed my Mum woke up! Call it miracle.. I dunno! Well today we are celebrating her 67th birthday! She is well, strong and living her best life! Ain’t God Good! Cheers Mama Ofili! You Rock!”
