Stay Away From Unprotected Sex, Doctor Warns Vast Of Bracket Group

Vast and Smash became popular with their hit banger, Yori Yori.
As such, it was a big blow to his fans when the story that he was
diagnosed with cancer hit the newsstand.
Some pictures of him looking very ill went viral and the singer said
the development saddened him.
“When the picture leaked, we were not happy initially. I was very
skinny but when I saw the response from the fans, I was shocked.
I did not know people liked me that much. Trust me; there was a
female fan that said that if I died, she was going to die. I nearly
cried and said God, if you save me, I would make these people one
of the happiest people on earth. That was why I went to the
studio and began singing like I never did before. I took myself back
to the days when we sang ‘Yori Yori’,” he said.
Recounting how it began, the dark-skinned singer said he thought
it was fever. It was when they went to London for an extensive
test that they knew what was wrong with him.
The young man narrated his ordeal.
He said, “It all started when we went on an American tour and I
started feeling feverish. I found myself taking my bath with hot
water even on a very hot day. That was when I started noticing
something was wrong. I noticed that whenever I drank alcohol, the
fever would come in an aggressive way. I eventually went to a
hospital in London. The doctor told me not to worry that
everything would be fine. He said to start the treatment, they
would have to do something that would allow them take something
from my spine. It was a very painful procedure.”
He told Saturday Beats that there were times when he felt like he
was dying.
“There was a time that I felt I would die. My only fear was that I
was not close to God. I was afraid that if I died, I would not make it
to heaven. We musicians have a particular lifestyle. You may plan
to be upright, but when you go into entertainment business, it
would change you. I was regretting that I was not close to God. I
did not want to go to hell. I felt so happy that I survived,” he said.
Assured that he is healed, he said that at the end of the
treatment, he did a blood test and they said he was okay. The
singer told Saturday Beats that the treatment cost him about
£58,000. He was supported by some close friends like P-
Square, KCee, Flavour and a London-based friend, Ugonna, who
offered them both accommodation and about £30,000.
 “After the treatment, I did two other tests and the doctors
confirmed that I was okay. After three months, I am meant to go
for a PET scan. I could remember that before the treatment, we
had a meeting and agreed that we had to bring £50,000. After
the seventh chemotherapy session, the whole money finished.
They had to send more £8,000 into the account I was using. The
last time I went to withdraw money, what was left there was
£120. So I used about £58,000,” the singer said.
 He told Saturday Beats that the doctors warned him to stay
away from unprotected sex for about three months. They said if
he impregnates a girl, the baby may not form normally as he still
has residues of the chemotherapy in his system.
