Big Smith News Watch Reports. Twenty‑eight‑year‑old Mark Emmanuel has died after a brief but tragic battle with a brain tumour that family members say developed following an accidental head injury.
Emmanuel, a devoted husband and father of three young daughters, was reportedly struck on the head with a sledgehammer in what his family described as an accident. Initially dismissing the blow, he later began suffering severe headaches and fainting episodes. Medical examinations revealed a blood clot at the site of the injury that developed into a brain tumour.
Over recent weeks Emmanuel’s condition deteriorated rapidly. Doctors advised that he required specialised surgery overseas, but his family said they were unable to raise the funds needed for treatment abroad. They launched urgent appeals for medical and financial assistance while Emmanuel underwent repeated hospital visits and intensive care.
He passed away on Tuesday night at the hospital where he had been receiving treatment. Emmanuel leaves behind a grieving mother, a wife and three very young daughters.
Family members described his hopes to recover, return to work and care for his children as simple but profound, and said his death has left them devastated both emotionally and financially.
The family has not yet released details about funeral arrangements. Authorities and medical personnel involved have not released further comment. Investigations into the original accident and the full medical circumstances surrounding his care were not immediately available.
