''I was sick for about five years … and on my sick bed, it dawned on me that people loved me but at that point, I was alone and wondering why,'' he said.

He stressed that one may have people around them and even family, ''but you will be shocked if you have to sit in a wheelchair for 10 years''.

''You will realise that what I said is true. I have been through it, so if I am saying this, you have to believe me,'' he added.
