Charles Mungoshi continues on the path to recovery and this morning travelled to Bulawayo to spend a month at the National Social Security Authority (NSSA) Rehabilitation Centre.

Mungoshi will receive free speech therapy and physiotherapy, courtesy of NSSA which made the offer to him earlier this year and also bought 10 copies of his latest novel, Branching Streams Flow in the Dark, for US$1,000 as another gesture of support.

He and his wife flew to Bulawayo, thanks to advertising and marketing company, Mediaserv’s assistance.

Expressing her eternal gratitude, his wife Jesesi said, “We thank the Lord, for His mercies endures forever.”

Mungoshi had an operation in April to correct a previous medical procedure that had seen an ineffective shunt inserted to drain excess fluid from his head to his stomach. The operation was made possible thanks to the generosity of kind-hearted Zimbabweans who responded to a call for help from friends and colleagues of Mungoshi who set up a fund for this cause.

Since the operation, Mungoshi has made a great improvement, but still does not have full mobility and his speech is slurred. His time at the NSSA centre will go a long way to help remedying this.
