Actress Nana Ama McBrown has shared details of the physical, emotional and financial toll of her recovery journey following a car accident more than a decade ago.
Speaking on TV3’s New Day programme with Cookie T on December 17, 2025, McBrown disclosed that her medical expenses in recent months alone have approached GH¢500,000.
“If I should tell you the money I’ve spent on this hand, it’s almost GH¢500,000 since May till now. And remember, it’s not just the money — the pain, the stress, the emotional trauma. You need to go through it yourself because you can’t rely on people,” she said.
The actress, who was involved in a car crash in January 2013, explained that her recovery has involved intensive physiotherapy, including early morning sessions at the 37 Military Hospital, followed by continued therapy at home.
“I had to work on my arm every morning and evening, using the stimulation machine they taught me to operate,” she explained.
Despite the challenges, McBrown expressed gratitude for her progress, revealing that she has undergone five surgeries in total.
“This was my fifth and final surgery,” she said. “I’m thankful to God that as I speak, I don’t feel the pain again.”
She added that while support from family and friends is important, recovery ultimately becomes a deeply personal process.
