In a quiet village in Bomet, the echoes of grief are still loud in one home months after a heartbreaking moment went viral — a woman being wheeled into her husband’s funeral while confined to a hospital bed.
Her son, in an emotional conversation with TUKO.co.ke, has now given Kenyans a somber update on how his mother is coping after the man she loved and lived for was buried before her eyes, while she lay helpless in an ambulance.
“His death broke her,” the son said, his voice heavy with pain. “Since that day, she hasn’t smiled the same. She’s still crying, but in silence.”
The mother, who was hospitalized at the time of her husband’s passing, insisted on attending the burial despite her fragile health. It was a moment that touched the nation — not just because of her physical condition, but because of the raw, visible pain of a love interrupted by death.
Since then, her son says she’s barely spoken, often staring into space and whispering his name. Though doctors are treating her body, her spirit is what seems hardest to heal.
“She’s lost weight. She hardly eats. It’s like her soul left with him,” he said.
The family is currently juggling the weight of hospital bills and the emotional toll of grief. Neighbors and well-wishers have offered support, but the road ahead remains uncertain.
What’s clear is that this isn’t just a story of illness or even death — it’s a story of love, heartbreak, and the quiet agony of those left behind.
“She loved him with everything,” her son added. “And now… we’re just praying she doesn’t follow him too soon.”
