17 Sep – Ella Koon revealed that she has been diagnosed with Bell's Palsy.
As reported on Phoenix News, the singer recently captured the media's
attention when she appeared at an event looking stiff on the right side
of her face. She was also seen tearing in one eye from the strong
spotlights.
Ella then revealed that she suffers from Bell's Palsy, a type of
paralysis that resulted in facial drooping due to a damage of the facial
nerves.
The singer pointed to the right side of her face and revealed that she
cannot even blink her right eye, let alone make a lot of movement.
"It happened last week when I woke up to drink water and realised that
the water trickled to the floor. I thought I had a stroke and was so
scared. But after visiting a neurologist, I was told that one of the
nerves was damaged," Ella disclosed.
"Aside from not being able to close my eyes, I also have difficulties
eating and drinking water. I have to put on surgical tape on my eyes
when I have to sleep and can't pronounce certain letters, like B and P,"
she said.
