Actress Lydia Lawrence has thanked God for sparing her life after a life threatening illness.
In a lengthy post on Instagram, the role interpreter explained that she intended to keep the bitter-sweet experience to herself but wondered how the devil would react if he knew she was celebrating his failure.
Lydia Lawrence recounted how she became so dreadfully ill that she required four pints of blood, which caused her body to respond badly and resulted in her needing oxygen to breathe.
She said she believed she wouldn’t make it because that was the most terrifying time of her life.
In September, she underwent another successful operation successful.
“Wanted to keep this moment of my life to myself but then I asked: how will the devil see me rejoice at the fact that he failed?
I need to share my testimony. Never in my life have I been so sick, that I needed, not 1 or 2, but 4 pints of blood to keep up.
“While taking the 4th pint, my body reacted so badly to it that I urgently needed oxygen to breathe. Scariest moment of my life cos I thought I wouldn’t make it. To cut the story short, the devil came again but God showed up for me like He has always done.
“Last year September I was fighting for my life while battling 3 ear surgeries. This year again, it went from flexing to another surgery and another fight for life.
