DJ Krowbar’s wife facing fifth attempt at kidney transplant

Kenyan veteran entertainer DJ Krowbar recently shared an emotional update on his wife, Wanjiru Karumba’s, ongoing battle with kidney failure.

In a recent conversation, he opened up about the challenges his family has faced as they navigate this difficult journey.

Wanjiru Karumba has been courageously fighting kidney failure, with DJ Krowbar by her side every step of the way.

Despite their relentless efforts, including a public appeal in September 2023 for help with medical expenses, Wanjiru has not yet been able to undergo the much-needed kidney transplant.

Recurring infections have repeatedly postponed the procedure, creating additional obstacles in their path. “My wife is still coping,” DJ Krowbar explained.

“We’ve attempted the transplant several times this year without success. Infections keep coming up, and you can’t proceed with a transplant if there are infections in the body.

We are trying again for the fifth time this year.”

This challenging experience has deeply impacted DJ Krowbar and his family, teaching them valuable life lessons.

He acknowledged that the journey has been incredibly tough but also emphasized how it has strengthened their family bonds.

“The experience has taught me that I’m not as strong as I thought I was.

Thank God for therapy and a good community of friends. It’s a tough journey; it’s not for everyone. But we’ve grown stronger over time—me, my wife, and even the kids,” Krowbar shared.

Therapy and a strong support system have been crucial in helping them cope with their ongoing struggles.

DJ Krowbar also spoke about the profound effect his wife’s illness has had on their children.

He revealed that his kids have had to adapt to a new normal and have shown remarkable resilience.

“There’s one thing my kids learned in therapy: three things are guaranteed in life.

Someone around you will get sick, someone around you will die, and you will start life all over again.

Two of those things have happened—someone in their life is sick, their mother is sick, and they’ve had to start life all over again,” Krowbar explained.

Despite the hardships, DJ Krowbar expressed immense pride in how his children have handled the situation, developing strength and grace beyond their years.

As a father, he has taken on the responsibility of guiding his children through this difficult time, grateful for their maturity and resilience.

“I have three kids. With the first child, you parent the most. It’s like kids get to a point where they parent themselves.

I’m in a space where I’m raising kids, but they’re also raising themselves,” Krowbar reflected.

Through these trials, the family has remained united, drawing strength from one another as they continue to face the challenges ahead.
