WATCH | The magical moment when Mark Pilgrim finally sees his daughters

Mark Pilgrim had a wide smile on his face when he finally had a chance to see his daughters in what he called a "magical moment".

The radio jock has been away from his girls for three weeks since recovering in an intensive care unit after surgery. 

Taking to his Twitter timeline recently, he shared snap of himself with his children in a passage at the hospital. 

“Magical moment. After almost three weeks I got to hug my girls. They’re not allowed in ICU, so I got permission to step out and visit them in the passage.”

In his mentions singer and entrepreneur Leanne Kistan- Dlamini shared a short prayer with Mark.

“Jesus please heal Mark.  Please. You are a miracle-working God who can turn any situation around and we are trusting you for his complete healing and recovery. We speak life, healing and wholeness in Jesus' name thank you that this family will be reunited in your might name. Amen,” she wrote. 

Mark underwent surgery to treat a lung that collapsed during his treatment for cancer. Taking to his Instagram timeline in his regular updates, he expressed how much he missed his children.

“Feeling much better today. Little bit of cabin fever after so many days in the room connected to tubes, but I know it’s all in the name sorting out the lung issue for good. Got a few more days here.

“Adrienne and friends visiting every day, a good book, my radio and Netflix passes the time somewhat. Missing my girls (children not allowed in ICU). This journey is a lesson in healing, patience and simply believing. I choose the outcome. And I choose life,” he wrote.
