Ghanaian female gospel musician, Ohemaa Mercy has shared one of her saddest moments in life–says she was once detained at a hospital due to her inability to pay her medical bills.

Ohemaa Mercy sharing some of the difficulties she encountered before rising to fame on Bola Ray’s award-winning show, Starr Chat on Starr FM said:

“Everything was ok until things were difficult and it became that bad, we didn’t plan for a C-section but after spending a week at the hospital and the baby was not coming, the doctor said if they don’t do a C-Section, I could lose the baby or my life and at that time it was cash and carry and we had to deposit money before being attended to.

“And we had spent virtually everything on us and so my husband had to leave me and go look for money, luckily for us we got money from one child who was staying with us and offered his tuition fee and that saved me because I was virtually dead on the hospital bed”.
