I survived nasal-bone fracture – Wendy Shay breaks silence
Multiple Ghanaian musician, Wendy Shay has disclosed that her recent accident led to her surviving a Nasal-bone fracture.
A nasal bone fracture occurs when the nose impacts against a solid object, it is a break in the bone or cartilage over the bridge, or in the sidewall or septum (the structure that divides the nostrils) of the nose.
Recounting the accident on Hitz FM with Andy Dosty, Wendy Shay said she was returning home after visiting label mate Kiki Marley, and when she got close to a junction leading to her home, she felt a big push behind her.
“I Was going home, I had finished creating content to promote my new song Every Man Cheats, and I passed by my label-mate Kiki Marley just to say hi, and to help her with her content as well,” she disclosed.
According to her, “I had to branch to my junction and all of a sudden I felt a big push, I almost lost control. I remember all I was screaming was Jesus because it happened so fast.”
Wendy Shay further added “I didn’t know what was going on. I entered the gutter, it was when I realised I was safe.”
The Survivor hitmaker noted, “I didn’t even realise when my head hit the dashboard, but all of a sudden, I realised I was blacking out, so they had to rush me to the hospital.”
She disclosed that “I survived a nasal-bone fracture, my face, everywhere was swollen, so now I cover the dark spots with spectacles, I am better now.”
Wendy Shay was involved in an accident on the ACP Estate-Kwabenya stretch after visiting a label mate, Kiki Marley on September 10, 2023.
