“There’s a lot I’m learning through this tough phase, and I wouldn’t wanna go six feet under without sharing it.”

“I know it’s gonna help the next person. Please appreciate where you are in life; a lot can change in a split second.”

In response to a suggestion from a fan to focus on recovery offline, Chymamusique remarked:

“That’s the only place I interact and feel normal, coz I’m bedridden and don’t wanna sit in silence and be depressed. Is there a bigger problem here, maybe?”

Support from fans

Numerous users responded with supportive messages for the DJ and shared their own reflections.

@SimplyEXT commented:

“I’ve learnt and also decided to let people I love know, to give what’s in my heart, to care and be present. Holding back only frustrates you further, and living in fear is no fun. I’m really glad you’re alive and recovering. Your Dlozi worked overtime. Stay blessed and keep praying.”

@TMbuzi stated:

“Enjoy every minute of your life. Sometimes in life, we take things for granted. We have a nice life, a great career, nice friends and nice families. That’s wonderful, as long as it lasts. But you never know from one day to the next, what life will bring, and so, enjoy what you have, be kind to people, take care of your family.”

@Aubrey_Senyolo expressed:

“Strength to you, Collen 💪 May the Almighty God heal all your wounds, may He continue to guide you through this journey, may He also give you the courage to accept this tough phase, and may He continue to protect your peace.”
