I really did not want to write this but in the words of renowned scriptwriter Syd Field, 'Writing is a personal responsibility. Its either you do it or you dont!' Like a snap shot taken from a vantage position, when you feel it... youve got to write it or that moment is lost forever. So here I am... Why my reluctance to write? That's because I dont like to mention or remember the passing to glory of anyone especially a young person.... in this case Caroline Chantel Johnson. When I heard about her passing, I hoped it was a rumour... one of those stories you hear that dont turn out to be true but with time the whispering got louder and spread and was confirmed on several websites.

I usually dont like to poke my nose into other peoples bizness especially health problems but this is a story that touched my heart. Some time ago it was in the news that actress, Caroline Johnson (Uju in Heavensgate)was diagnosed with leukemia. Money was raised for her to go to India for treatment. She did and is back in Nigeria.

Dear All, HE KEPT HIS WORD… This is Caroline Johnson and am happy to write this letter. Firstly, I would like to let you know that Jesus Christ really lives and I thank God for seeing me through.

My prayer is that our good Lord will rise up on your case as he did with mine. I am inspired and glad to write you all and with sincere appreciation deep down within me, I would like to say a BIG THANK ...
