In a recent update shared via video, Wizarab confirmed that Baddy underwent a 7-hour operation on his right leg, which doctors described as successful. However, medical experts advised against operating on both legs at once due to the severity of his condition.

“Baddy has carried out a successful 7-hour surgery on his right leg. According to the doctors, they can’t operate on both legs at the same time. The left leg is a bigger operation and will require two surgeries. When he recovers, he will return to operate on the left leg,” Wizarab explained.

In the video, Baddy could be heard acknowledging the excruciating pain he was experiencing while also expressing gratitude for the successful outcome. He revealed that doctors decided to focus on his right leg alone, as his body might not have been able to withstand simultaneous procedures on both legs.

The medical team emphasised that once the right leg heals, the next stage will involve two separate operations on the left leg, which presents greater complications.

This is best time they can stand with him, cheer him up, serve him a lot of hopium. He needs serious hopium at this stage, hopefully he finds the one worthy living for.”
