magicminister: please if you need clarification on something, say so, instead of jumping into wrong conclusions. The truth is Mayowa is a Sickle Cell Disease patient, and has been managed at LUTH for a long time. The hospital cannot start divulging that info now, can they? We are too quick to jump into conclusions and rubbish our institutions based on sheer ignorance. 4 Likes 1 Share |

ndujekwu:You just hit the nail on the head with that,a Lie is a lie no matter how you look at it.....yes the family might have wanted to give Mayowa a fighting chance but why lie about it to get help,that was just where they were wrong and Nigerians should stop being sentimental by saying toyin and linda wanted a share of the money,how about the aramide kashumu of lifestake foundation that started seeing the discrepancies even before linda came out to the public 1 Like |

magicminister: Despite the fact that the statement by LUTH lacked details, which could be attributed to the confidential nature of a patient's information, your MYOPIC, BIAS, and DEROGATORY statement only portrayed you as a frustrated individual with poor judgement***maybe a *wanabe* 1 Like |

emy77: Thank you, bro. It is even more amusing that some 150 people upvoted his clearly misguided, uninformed and silly "analysis". Terrifying to see how people can easily misread a simple statement and take off at a tangent. This is a sad commentary on our educational system. Comprehension o jawo mo, MCQ ti take over! 3 Likes |

Chartey: With due respect "LUTH is not a doctor" is a very irresponsible statement. Luth is a hospital and as such is bound by the same professional obligations as it's doctors. In saner climes the hospital would be preparing for a medical malpractice suit. For your information, the disclosure of the girl's diagnosis should be left to her to reveal. The fact that they revealed less than what they have doesn't give them the right to release anything. Whatever gives them the impression that they can decide to weigh in on their interests over a patient's interests is from the pit of hell. |

glossy6: This 31year-old lady came into the Private Wing of LUTH on Monday, 25th July, 2016 with a history and clinical features of an intra-abdominal mass. The family and the patient brought along some results of laboratory investigations ordered and done from outside LUTH. Three different Specialists were invited to review Mayowa. Did we read the same article? |
Re: Mayowa Ahmed: LUTH Releases Press Statement On #savemayowa by Bjergtrolde: 9:42pm On Jul 29, 2016 |
Rainmaker69: Lets get a few things straight, LUTH did not break any confidentiality as far as this case is concerned. Medical information is no longer confidential once it is in public domain as in this case. You should note that they did not reveal the information for which they know her for as that was not already in the public domain particularly if made public by the patient or her agents. This can be described as "implied consent" . This is more so as LUTH was linked in the story. There may have been a scam but then again they were just being emotional. They may have embellished the story so as to get funds to take her abroad , then again they may have done so simply to get as much money as possible from her illness in the short time she has in this world. If she does have an abdominal malignancy as the chaps in LUTH highly suspected, no hospital in this world would give her the treatment to survive at this stage in her disease. At most it would buy her a few months. It may be that I feel this way because it is not me but I hope and pray that when death comes to me, I would be brave enough to tell my doctors and my family to let me go home , sort out my affairs and die peacefully . Doctors are not and should not play God. 1 Like |

magicminister: B.S. Your write up only shows you don't understand anything about health care. Mayowa is a sickle cell patient and may have been visiting for the management of her crisis. She may not have visited LUTH when the ailment started. She may have patronized private hospitals. She probably came back to LUTH when she realized she wasn't getting any better. About misdiagnosis, even a third year medical student will never misdiagnose cancer. Stop misleading the public and keep your ignorance to yourself. 3 Likes |

bigmo1: I'm a medic and I've watched this go on. However, I need to say something. I work in a teaching hospital, though not LUTH. 1. You don't make a diagnosis of a mass that fast because you need to send it to the lab for histopathology (biopsy) and you can't get biopsy results that within 48 hours. LUTH cannot work blindly on the result of another hospital. What if it was benign?. Therefore, a new test must be conducted 2. If you're collecting public funds to the tune of over 30 million, yes, you can't be shaddy or hiding something from the public. You have to be plain. And saying nobody from the public can see you, Even Toyin Aimaku raises questions. You can't collect money and then say your donors can't contact you anymore. 3. There's a word we call immunocompromise. E.g HIV, HbSS patient., cancer This (combination of cancer and sickle cell) patient has a low oxygen level and to perform surgery, you need to intubate a patient during the procedure to make them sleep during surgery, a period where they have apnea (can't breathe). For someone that has low oxygen levels already, this seems like suicide. She MIGHT NOT be fit for surgery. Its risky forr anesthesiologist to prep her for surgery. However, she can keep fighting, a miracle is possible That said, it's good to hope for the best and not give up. However, due to large funds involved, she should have made things clear to the public that gave her the funds. I hope I helped people understand. Let's still pray for her. God does the impossible. 2 Likes |

Bjergtrolde: Generally well said. I guess we will agree to disagree on the issue of Luth's culpability. The hospital has no justification for releasing her medical information while she is still alive. The burden of confidentiality has nothing to do with public domain where the family has not given their permission. In fact, the burden even extends to court proceedings. I wish her all the best. |

all u doctors spewing trash in defense of ur institutions...God is watching u. What we could still leave for another day's debate is the technical competence of medical doctors in this country...but what cannot be debated is the appalling customer service they render in most hospitals especially government owned. This is not the first and will not be the last time our hospitals make"insufficient " diagnosis. I have had a personal experience of three different hospitals (one private two government)giving different diagnoses on an ailment all due to lackadaisical attitude to service delivery. ACCORDING TO LUTH's RESPONSE what was being treated "all this while" was "intra abdominal mass". I am sure it wasn't the patient that asked them to treat her for that, they must have "diagnosed" that. the patient tried other places when her situation wasn't improving and got another "diagnoses". Brought it back, luth then called three specialist to "properly" look into the issue. Luth now"tentatively discovered" "abdominal malignancy". well not sure, but both don't sound the same. if things were properly done i believe the right treatment would have been administered long before now with possibly no reason for all this drama. u are bullying this guy for "assuming" while ur counter arguments are all based on assumptions too. |

People tend to be so melodramatic when they hear the word sickness and death. because one hears the word sickness so questions shouldn't be asked. I remember that is how they swept diezani matter under the carpet because of the word cancer. Shaking my head. One wonders what hospital abroad will take a case with out proper referral from a hospital. Anyone can make enquiries. Did anyone bother to ask Emory to know how much of the case they are aware about . one thing is certain in this case .Nothing was concrete. No travel arrangements,no decisive decision on hospital, or how to stablize patient before the on ward journey abroad. Just a massive surge to raise funds . Afterward total quiet. suspicious??I will say yes.the intentions are in doubt . Yes the lady is unwell but what were the intentions of the handlers while raising funds. No one may really know. I leave them to their conscience. & God. I feel for Ms Aimakhu. One should always look before one leaps. She is guilty of making hasty emotional decisions. May God help her out of this one. I pray for Mayowa God visit her and divinely touch her |

My people perish because of lack of knowledge. Read about the condition, or ask a doctor. A cancer patient (advanced) is bound to get a lot of collateral conditions and at this stage, the treatment is just palliative. If the private hospitals are so good and LUTH doctors are just quacks, why do they keep referring to LUTH? See ehn, thereis sentiment and there is objectivity. No doctor will perform any procedure on a Stage IV Ovarian cancer patient with HBSS, not to mention the metastases to the liver ... I know we are a very hopeful people, but pause and think the rationale... Yes, even if it's half a chance the family/patient are well in their rights to TRY, but don't give the public halftruths, open up from beginning so later on, there'll be nothing to reveal, no drama.... magicminister: |

Luth didn't state any specific diagnosis , inrabdominal mass could be fat, faeces, fetus,fluid etc Luth as not stated any thing that breeched the patient confidentiality ,even patient herself has revealed more in order to raise fund. luth management made it clear they are yet to arrive at a diagnosis. |
