Akeem Adams has improved to the point where he can now watch football on television, the media in Budapest has reported. Adams, 22, had been in a Budapest heart clinic since September, when he suffered a massive heart attack in his apartment which ended his professional career. His mother, Ancilla Adams, has vowed to remain in Hungary while he remains in hospital. “While Akeem heals here, I am not moving away. I’ll stay in Budapest. Every day I talk to him, hold his hand, to me it is the most important (thing),” mom Ancilla Adams, told the Budapest media.
Adams has had four life-saving surgeries, including the amputation of his left leg, and currently survives on a mechanical heart. He still needs a heart transplant, but is still too weak to have the procedure. Adams signed for the Hungarian club, Ferencvárosi in the summer, but has had a lot of support since his tragedy. Over 250 members of the Hungarian public have donated blood and His club Ferencvárosi recently raised some 10 million Hungarian dollars for Adams’ rehabilitation.
