I was told my bones were 20 years older than my age — Gospel singer Tim Godfrey

Nigerian gospel singer Tim Godfrey has disclosed that he was told by some scientists that his bones were 20 years older than his age.

Godfrey, on his Instagram page, on Thursday, narrated his battle with an illness which almost left him paralyzed.

He said his illness started with back pain.

The singer wrote, “This picture right here was when I was admitted to the hospital. It started with me feeling some pain in my back, then a hellish pain in my arms.

“I went for an MRI and the scientists told me that my bones were 20 years older than my age—over 60 years old when I’m in my 40s. They also told me that my spinal cord disc had shifted and all these other complicated things were all happening to me at the same time.

“I was always in pain. Sometimes I would hold my hand to my face and cry so badly. They told me that I had overstretched my body and a lot of other evil reports.”

He added: “But as the song says, when there is a chance for evil, God turns it for good.

“I went home after some treatments and intensive prayers believing that I am healed and it is so.

“Right now, I’m really grateful to God for the gift of healing. I imagine the plan of the enemy was that I’ll be paralysed, but God turned it around.
