A 16-year-old second-year student of Abuakwa State College diagnosed with a brain tumor is seeking help to raise ¢18,000 to go for surgery.

Blessed Amponsah Addo told Adom News he feels nauseating very often and over time he lost control of his left leg and arms.

“Now I can’t walk without being supported and I can’t also read well so I have stopped schooling while my classmates are moving on to third-year,” he said.

Doctors at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital wrote that Blessed was diagnosed with a brain tumor and they would need at least GHC18,000 to perform the procedure to restore his health.

Mr Addo said he had wanted to join the military but because of the scare from the brain tumor, he is now thinking of becoming a broadcaster when he gets well.

His dad, Kojo Addo, a barber by profession said he has spent the little savings he had in trying to get his son’s health restored but to no avail.

“So I am appealing to Ghanaians to please help us to save my son’s life,” he said.

Adom FM is, therefore, assisting in raising funds to help Mr Addo to undergo a surgery.
