“HELP ME FIGHT!!
Tonight has been the most roughest night for me. I have been unwell because this covid 19 demon has hit me hard. I’m not gonna hide my status in fear of bieng stigmatized. It is the way it is.
It has been a tough night, breathing is an issue, I’m tired of the heavy breathing n deep breath, fevers skyrocketing, I don’t know which is the best position to sleep on despite trying to sleep on my belly. It is super crazy.
I just don’t know what to do anymore. Thank God my children are safe. They understand that mama has to be away from them n isolated. I pray for their minds n heart to be strong enough to help me go through this.
I thank God for my doctor. Dr Karanja of Laveen hospital thika. This guy is just the bomb, walking with me through this n showing me to treat it as any other normal disease has helped me keep on keeping on.

But all through the night last night has been the most crazy one. The way fevers are treating me is unkind. My oxygen levels are ok. Its is not easy for me n am crushing down emotionally, especially now I have to be alone, no one to hug me n tell me it’s gonna be ok or see friends over for a visit. Its just me against this this.
I know I need to keep a positive attitude in order to beat this thing but I’m human, I can’t help it but to get emotionally down sometimes.
I need your help family. The kind of help I need from u is to pray for me. I need to pull this through for the sake of my children. Say a prayer for me dear ones. I know I have enemies to who will rejoice when they see this but I really don’t care. I know I have few genuine friends here who will carry the burden of praying for me. Help me dear ones to fight this thing
I love you all.”
Kenyans in their thousands left messages of comfort and hope for Wanja who is popularly known for her philanthropic acts to the downtrodden in society.
