Breath of Life Concert


A man’s true wealth is the good that he does in this world to his fellows – Moliere

Frank Muriuki is a vocalist with the best gospel group of 2012, Adawnage. His father, Josphat Muriuki, 59, has melanoma (skin) cancer. He is currently admitted at MP-Shah Hospital where they are administering Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy. He has also had to undergo various surgeries including lower leg surgery in December 2009; upper (thigh) surgery in December 2010; Head surgery to remove a tumour in February 2012; and a surgery to reduce the size of his prostrate in May 2012. Due to the expenses involved, the family’s accounts and savings have run dry. Frank has had to postpone his wedding twice already due to his dad’s medical condition.

My First Breath as a Dead Man


Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows – Pope Paul VI

I have had dreams, I have had nightmares
Some I remember but none as clear as this
This strangely is not a nightmare at all to me
This is my first breathe as a deadman

I rise up and take my first gasp
Oh my God, what is my body doing down there?
Its clear as light that am no longer alive
But also clear is that am not dead

How I died is still a blurr
But from where I rose, I know it was not far
I wonder if am already missed
mmhh!!! ofcourse what is there not to miss

I did not believe any of this when I was still alive
But then again why am I the only one here?
Is this the place where they keep those of little faith?
And out of billions there was only one?

The darkness is so thick I could hear it speak
But alas a dense light captures my sight
I hear voices, oh I am not alone
but then they fade away, what is going on?

I see angels all around me
But the light is turning out to be blinding
Movies convinced me that I would find them singing
strangely they were just there…….. talking

Suddenly it was all clear to me
I was never dead just in surgery
So i guess, till this day I await
My first breathe as a dead man
