IN SOUTH AFRICA: Bobby van Jaarsveld goes through healing after surgery

Local singer and former Voice SA coach, Bobby van Jaarsveld shares with fans his last two days experience in ICU for another vocal chord surgery and hernia operation.

The singer shared series of snaps of his look at the Wits Donald Gordon Medical Centre in Parktown, Johannesburg.

“We usually only share the good stuff. But not today. This is how my last two days in ICU have been. Crap, yes. Through all the pipes, catheter, plasters and pain (and to be woken up multiple times at night to have blood drawn and at 04:00 for tea – when I’m not allowed to have tea and can only lick ice – who has tea at 04:00?) I’m thankful that everything went well. I’m not allowed to talk or make a sound for the next 5 days, so I’m just reading. Hernia is fixed and now it’s just the healing process. Thank you for all the prayers. #GoodIsHere #Hernia #Nissen #VocalChordSurgery”

Ons deel altyd net die dinge wat goed lyk. Nie vandag nie. Wel hierdie is hoe my afgelope 2 dae in icu is. Crap Ja . Maar deur al die pype, kateter, pleisters en pyn (en baie kere ñ nag wakker gemaak word om bloed te trek en dan ook 4am wakker gemaak te word vir tee net om vir haar te wys ek mag nie TEE drink nie ek mag net ys lek …. en hoekom maak hulle mens 4 uur wakker vir TEE ? )…. is ek dankbaar dat alles goed gegaan het. Ek mag nie praat of geluide maak vir 5 dae nie so ek lees maar. Mantelvlies is gefix so nou is dit net die herstel proses. Dankie vir almal se gebede 🙏 #GodIsHier #hernia #nissen #vocalchordsurgery
