How sad and how hopelessly tragic! Another life cut short through the negligence of the hospital management board! I wish there were expert lawyers who could handle medical malpractice suits in this country. Epe General Hospital deserves to be sued from top to bottom. From the Medical Director to the doctors and nurses on duty, they deserve to be behind bars! If they could not get a mere generator to power a ward, so that oxygen could be used by a patient, then it means their ICU unit would definitely be in shambles. Couldn't they make arrangements to rent one? Each year, the number of patients whose death can be attributed to negligence on the part of doctors and nurses, needs to be reviewed. And the medical personnel in charge of such cases, need to be brought to book, to pay for their crimes. Every single life is precious. We cannot afford to lose any. Finally, a bone marrow transplant is fvcking expensive (i.e. it costs millions) and its' still not a definitive cure for sickle cell. I had relatives who got BM transplants, and still died months after the procedure from SCD. May God help us all. My heart goes out to Aderinsola's bereaved sister. May the Almighty God bring peace, healing and comfort to your soul.... |

seguno2: Na di same Epe, o! The same Epe General Hospital, was where Deji Tinubu former Chairman of Lagos State's Sports Commission, was rushed to, when he collapsed playing football in Epe. They could not revive him, despite the fact that the poor man battled to stay alive. Poor Deji Tinubu, slumped while playing five a-side match at a retreat of members of the Lagos State Executive Council and permanent secretaries in Epe, in January. May God deliver the citizens of Epe, from that useless general hospital. 1 Like 1 Share |

kemifemi: Ah madam, sorry o! I sympathise with you on your loss. Honestly, until nurses, medical doctors, and their directors are sued from head to toe in this country, for huge sums of money, these medical personnel will continue playing ludo with people's lives. I am quite sure you must have paid upfront for the cesarean section and other procedures, before being take to their theatre. Yet they still chose to be stingy with fuel and generator usage, at that late stage? Yet they could not provide an incubator for a premature baby? Why didn't they refer you to a hospital with incubators, instead of carrying out the C-section in their own premises, knowing fully well they did not have the right facilities to care for such a baby? God will judge them, o! |

salt1: How old is she? I am not sure of bone transplant centers in Nigeria and if there are, the chances of success will be quite slim. Meanwhile, regular use of supplements and a healthy lifestyle will go a long way to prevent any form of crisis. That's the best bet for now |
