Lord Mayor Erias Lukwaga has for the past couple of weeks been battling with throat problems that saw him bedridden at different hospitals in Kampala and later, Kenya.
The hospitals he checked in as he sought treatment included; Rubaga Hospital, Nakasero Hospital, Kampala Hospital, Mulago Hospital, Ultima Orthopedics Center, Tendo Clinic, Dr Kisekka’s Physio-tech Rehabilitation Center in Mpererewe, and Nairobi Hospital, Kenya and others that he did not mention.
It is from Nairobi, Kenya where he was transferred to India where he underwent improved treatment, and has since extended gratitude to a team of Neurosurgeons and health experts at Fortis Memorial Gurugram, India for the expertized treatment extended to him.
Erias Lukwago is at the moment nearing full recovery and he will be returning to Kampala this very month on the 11th. He thanked his well-wishers who have shown him love and support during the days he has been down.
He had a successful neck surgery after doctors at Fortis Memorial Gurugram, India used high-end cutting-edge technology to navigate around his throat and were able to access his spine and replaced the hitherto niggling herniated disc with an artificial one.
He is going to take some good time without decking on his throttling neckties and suits since he is slated to start living a new normal since he has an open-chest appearance.
I found it quite inevitable given the fact that an open-chest appearance is going to be my new normal for some good time without the almost-throttling neckties and suits accustomed to.
He also thanked his family members for always keeping him in prayer, caregivers in India, and his fellow political leaders, technical staff at KCCA, Law school classmates, The Uganda Medical Board team, UAP insurance, the bonafide FDC fraternity, and other comrades in the struggle in different political formations, the team at Lukwago and Company Advocates among others who have stood with him in his trying period.
I am also profoundly touched by the outpouring love and support extended to me by my family members, caregivers in India and Uganda, fellow political leaders and technical staff at KCCA, The Uganda Medical Board team, UAP insurance, the bonafide FDC fraternity and other comrades in the struggle in different political formations, the team at Lukwago and Company Advocates, fellow Law school classmates and other members of the legal fraternity, different media houses and corporate entities, Kampalans and Ugandans from different parts of the country, friends of all walks of life and sympathizers from near and far, known and unknown etc.
Erias Lukwago further bragged about how he is now an expert in advising and counseling about issues concerning paramedic neurology and orthopedics.
Below is Erias Lukwago’s letter in full
I’m at great pains sharing with you images of my emaciated self with an unkempt white-ish stubble all over my face, and more particularly that gut-crunching (but fast healing) surgical incision around my neck through which the incredibly meticulous neurosurgeons skillfully- with cutting edge technology- navigated around my throat to be able to access the spine and replace the hitherto niggling herniated disc with an artificial one. However, I found it quite inevitable given the fact that an open-chest appearance is going to be my new normal for some good time without the almost-throttling neckties and suits accustomed to. I particularly feel blessed that this morning I woke up in a rather high and febrile state having had a delta or low-wave sleep without any sedative inducement or constant check on my health vitals. Indeed, Thy Name should always be glorified!.
I owe a great debt of gratitude to a team of Neurosurgeons and health experts at Fortis Memorial Gurugram, India through whom the Lord blessed me with a new lease of life. I wish to convey similar thanks to an amazing number of neurosurgeons, orthopedists, physiotherapists, chiropractors, and other health experts in Uganda who professionally and diligently handled my life before traveling to India. InevitabIy, I have had numerous health facilities in the chain of my medical journey to wit; Rubaga Hospital, Nakasero Hospital, Kampala Hospital, Mulago Hospital, Ultima Orthopedics Center, Tendo Clinic, Dr Kisekka’s Physio-tech Rehabilitation Center in Mpererewe and of course not forgetting Nairobi Hospital, Kenya and others. Truly, this is the kind of health challenge our ancestors aptly referred to as “Lubuna-malwaliro!”.I am also profoundly touched by the outpouring love and support extended to me by my family members, caregivers in India and Uganda, fellow political leaders and technical staff at KCCA, The Uganda Medical Board team, UAP insurance, the bonafide FDC fraternity and other comrades in the struggle in different political formations, the team at Lukwago and Company Advocates, fellow Law school classmates and other members of the legal fraternity, different media houses and corporate entities, Kampalans and Ugandans from different parts of the country, friends of all walks of life and sympathizers from near and far, known and unknown etc.It is trite that every experience in life (good or bad) is an opportunity for one to pick lessons. I would like to state without any hesitation that at the end of this ordeal, I will be an uncertified paramedic and counselor in neurology and orthopedics. I hope in the coming days, the lead and adept neurosurgeon at Fortis Memorial, Dr. Sandeep Vaishya will issue me with a certificate of fitness to fly and be able to return to our beloved city, Kampala as a passenger and not cargo by the 11th day of May 2024.God bless you all
FOR GOD AND MY COUNTRY.
