Peasah has been battling this condition for over two years. Demyelinating disease damages the protective covering surrounding nerve fibres in the brain, optic nerves, and spinal cord. This damage disrupts the signals travelling along the nerves, leading to various neurological problems. For Peasah, this has meant a significant deterioration in his ability to communicate and move around, severely affecting his quality of life.

Despite these challenges, Peasah remains hopeful. He shared that he has been praying and taking his medication, hoping for a positive outcome.

Earlier this year, Peasah made a public appeal for financial assistance to cover his medical expenses in March. His plea touched the hearts of Ghanaians, with many, including Vice President Bawumia, donating to support him. This collective effort has enabled him to continue his treatment, but recent developments have indicated the need for further medical intervention overseas.
