Kenyan supermodel Ajuma Nasanyana has been diagnosed with pulmonary embolism.
The supermodel who has graced both local and international runways was fighting for her life a few days ago after she was admitted at the Aga Khan University hospital.
Ajuma revealed through her social media that she was diagnosed with pulmonary embolism.
‘’My feet just touched the ground for the first time after 5 days from being diagnosed with Pulmonary Embolism (blood clot in my lung). My life was spared. I will be posting more about what I experienced, just to caution people when I’m clear and out of hospital in a day or 2. My family, friends and I are still in shock and horror.’’ She wrote.
A pulmonary embolism is caused by a blood clot in the leg that breaks loose and travels to the lungs. A blood clot in a vein close to the skin is not likely to cause problems.
But having blood clots in deep veins (deep vein thrombosis) can lead to pulmonary embolism.
Her friend and fellow model Namnyak Odupoy however made her day better by taking a photo of the supermodel with her son Willow to her hospital room a few days ago.
The striking photo was taken by none other than fine arts photographer Krisjan Rossouw.
The mother of two was released yesterday and her joy could not be measured as she posted a comment alongside a hilarious video.
‘’Us leaving the hospital???????????????????????? *this is not a political post please* God bless Kenya in the coming month and I pray for a peaceful election!’’ She wrote.
