Heavy K is on a mission to raise over two-million rand for the best treatment for his son.
His son suffers from cerebral palsy and the treatment, according to a TimesLive interview this is what he revealed.
He said they’ve been told treatments cost approximately $180,000 (about R2-million) and he is on a mission to raise the funds.
“As a father to a special child, it is all in my hands. There are a lot of potential treatments that can be done to help him be the best version of himself. Even if he gets to be 100%, I want to do so much for him so he can have the best life possible. I and his mother have been doing our research and we’ve been in talks with parents of children with the same condition locally and internationally.”
The hitmaker said if he can be able to afford his son the treatment, it could allow his son to live his best life.
Heavy K said he had faced a few challenges when his son was born. The birth of his son was followed by the loss of his mother which was very challenging to accept.
He said it was his two-year-old son that inspired him to stay strong and change his life.
“The birth of my kids was also my wake up call. After I had my first born, I actually lost a lot of weight. Because the grieving process was weird for me. The night after my first son was born, my mother passed away. It was hectic and even bittersweet. I welcomed my son and lost my mother and that was tough on me. I then gained twice the weight I had lost and I knew my problem was not grieving probably. So I asked for help.”
