She filmed herself crying helplessly as she prayed for his recovery.

In the images she shared online, the child could be seen barely conscious and struggling to breathe.

Speaking on the matter, Becky said, doctors found the child to have suffered severe nasal congestion.

Tonsillitis, Allergic Rhinitis, and Enlarged adenoids among other conditions can cause this situation.

The singer said doctors informed her that the condition was likely caused by the medication the boy was taking.

They told me that the syrups we were giving him caused his nasal mucus to dry up and cause a blockage,” she said.

This is a common condition among children. I received many messages from parents, some of whose babies had to go for surgeries,” added the singer.

Becky’s decision to go public about her son’s sickness was received with mixed reactions, with some terming it as inappropriate.

Socialite Shanitah Namuyibwa aka Bad Black accused her of using the boy’s condition to “chase for clout and views.”
