”I had a cancer scare and I had like my thyroid removed. And it was like a journey for us because we had kids”.
Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson has opened up on how she survived her life-changing surgery.
She said this during the latest episode Youtube cooking show, where she had a special guest, Joke Silva, on for a chat.

She said;
“… Odi [her husband] and I have been here, and I have never discussed it where we had, like, Uhm, a scare. I had a cancer scare and I had like my thyroid removed. And it was like a journey for us because we had kids.
At that time, she and her husband had to accept the reality that surgery had to be done.
She furthered, ” And then we got there, they said I was going to be on medication for the rest of my life.”
