Gospel musician Esther Smith has opened up on the touching story of her son, who recovered from a hole-in-heart condition to become a footballer.
The singer said she gave birth to her son prematurely and he used to have respiratory issues and sometimes bled through his nose.
She explained that although she was initially reluctant to allow her son to play football, he was later cleared by a doctor and has since been signed by a club.

How Esther Smith's son recovered from hole-in-heart condition
“God works in a mysterious way. I gave birth to my son prematurely, and in the seventh month, I was bleeding profusely,” Esther Smith said on Joy Prime.
“When I gave birth to him, he used to bleed from his nose every summer and also struggled to breathe properly during the winter.”
She added: “So we were visiting the hospital every time. My son started playing football at the age of six, but I tried to stop him because of his heart condition. The doctor advised that we could allow him to sometimes play football because the hole in his heart was not sealed yet.
“Later, the doctor cleared him to be able to play football. He’s so good at football, even better than his sibling with no health issues, and scores a lot of goals. Just last month, he was signed by a club and he plays without any problem now.”e
Meanwhile, Esther Smith is set to host her homecoming live concert at the Perez Dome in Accra on Friday, August 30, 2024.
