My Brother Needs Your Help Please :( by Walexz02(m): 8:21pm On Apr 03, 2016
Good day to you all good people of Nairaland.
Last year I created a topic making enquiries on the illness of my brother who was brought to UCH Ibadan from lagos state.
He had an accident which resulted in leg fracture which he was managing untill September last year when he lost control to both of his lower limbs.

https://www.nairaland.com/2626954/doctor-should-oplease-us

At UCH ibadan doctors said he had chronic oesteomaleitis and upon doing further tests they said he had tubaclosis of the spine .
They commenced treatment and started giving him "anti cough" which they said would yield positive results upon taking it for 3-4months .
At some point they suggested that we should raise money for surgery if we want him to recover quickly. We raised 300,000naira.
Just a week after we raised the money they asked us to do MRI test which we did (it cost 75k) we did other tests too which gulp up almost all the money we have then.

4 weeks After these tests, they asked us to repeat MRI but we don't have the money, our consultant suggest that we should do ultrasound which is cheaper than MRI. We did it and after the test they said he may not be needing surgery again that he shoud continue taking the "anti cough".

He has multiple bed sours on his back and both hips which we have been managing few weeks after he was admitted into the hospital.
We have been in UCH ibadan since October Last year my good people, and bed fee is 1000/day.

Early last month when our consultant came he said we should bring money for surgery (to check what is going on in his back ) since he has used "anti cough" for more than 4months with out much significant result.

Two weeks later when our consultant came he asked that we be discharged from the hospital since we couldn't raise money for surgery. The bed sours are still there which we can not manage at home ourselves.

Please good people of Nairaland my brother needs your help, my family needs your help. Please come to our aid, we need 350,000naiara to perform this surgery. And we have only raised 120,000

Thanks @chelseaDr.
I am a prospective corps member and I have been praying that he be discharged from hospital before I leave for service.
Had I known we would be staying this long in the hospital I would have postponed my service year.
