“I was in final year, I was in Form 4 for 2 days, we were the last batch for the 4 years SHS programme,” Adelaide said and disclosed that her condition started with normal fever and headache.

Speaking about how exactly she lost her sight, she said ” the time it actually happened, I lost my memory. I went into coma for days so it was after I recovered from the comma that I realized everywhere was dark“.

“I was in a coma for 4 days. After I lost my sight, I was becoming paralyzed and after I recovered from the coma, I realized I was completely paralyzed so I went through physiotherapy to able to walk again,” Adelaide said.
