I’m still in a bit of pain-Singer, Banky W speaks on skin cancer

February 15,2018

By Patricia Uyeh,

‘Blessing me’ crooner, Banky W in an Insta-live video on Instagram addressed some questions concerning  the rare strain of skin cancer tumors found on his shoulder before the surgery removal he did last year.

The singer said his still in a little bit of pain but from his recent test result his in the clear. Banky W said:

“The good news is that I did do my pathology test and I’m completely in the clear. I’m still in a little bit of pain if I’m completely honest with you and it’s more difficult because people in Nigeria love and greet aggressively. So when people see you, they want to greet you and slap you on the back and that hurts a lot but it’s getting better”

In November 2017, In a lengthy post on Instagram, Banky W showed pictures of his surgery scars, thanking God for his mercies and successful operations.

He wrote;

“A wise man once said this: “Scars. A sign that you had been hurt. A sign that you had been healed.” Scroll through the pictures to see mine.

“I’m sharing these because they’re proof of what God has brought me through. And because somewhere out there, I know there’s someone who needs to hear this.

“For those who’ve been wondering why I’ve been away so long..I had my 3rd surgery on a rare strain of skin cancer tumours in my shoulder last month. The first 2 times were over 10 yrs ago, then it recently resurfaced. But this isn’t a sad story as much as it is a reminder, and a testimony.

“A reminder that you should never take life for granted. You only get 1 shot. Some people went to sleep and never woke up. Many others have lost the battle to cancer and other illnesses. Many are still fighting. U never know when your time will be up so don’t waste another minute. It’s also a testimony about the goodness of God. I think I had to go through this again to remember how merciful God is to me; Lord knows I don’t deserve it but He saves me time and again anyway. I keep saying I need to write a book. I really, really do.

“The past few weeks of recovery have been tough, but beautiful. I’m finally back on my feet, feeling stronger and ready to get back to life. I’m especially thankful to my Nurse Susu for loving me and being by my side every step of the way – I don’t deserve U ??, my parents & siblings, in-laws & close friends for the love, support and prayers, my Pastors – Pastor Tony Rapu & Pastor Del Balogun of TPH, Pastor Taiwo Odukoya and Pastor Bayo Adeyokunnu – for constantly praying with and for me. And of course to Dr Wodajo & Dr Miralli & their teams – who God used to operate on me successfully.

“I’m thankful for life, provision and healing. Pls don’t feel bad, or msg me with any worries. God has done it, just thank Him for me.

“The pain will eventually go away but the scar won’t – and I’m glad because it’s a reminder to me of what God has done, and evidence to you of what He CAN do. I’m not stronger or better than anyone. I’m just a living testimony that no matter what u face, U can survive & thrive, by God’s grace.
