Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris has been discharged from the Aga Khan Hospital in Nairobi after a successful surgical procedure to address her recurring back pain.
On Monday, Passaris had informed her online followers that she was set to undergo the operation, which has now been completed successfully.
"Thank God my operation went well. I had my first pain-free night in over two months. Thank you all for having my back, for your prayers and for wishing me well. I start physio today with gratitude in my heart for the blessing of seeing another day," Passaris tweeted on September 17, 2019.
Passaris, who is a mother of two, had previously undergone a successful surgery at Nairobi Hospital in January to remove a goiter she had been living with for the last 10 years.
