Mrs Olufunke Mary Oladeji could not have wished to set this kind of record. But it was inevitable the 38 year old had to do. To save her life.
The private wing of Ward E7 of the University of Lagos Teaching Hospital (LUTH), Idi-Araba recently for home after coming under doctors’ knife as he first kidney transplant patient in the hospital, relatives, friend, and well wishers practically rolled out the drums to thank God for her survins a two year ordeal.
She was heavy then, to lose the pregnancy after eight months.
Pastor Oladeji who is the Registrar of the Mission’s Bible Crusade at Mafoluku, Oshodi said as Christians they began to pray for divine healing, backing it up with medical treatment.
“With money, prayers and Faith we forged on. Right from November 7th, she commenced dialysis. This was thrice in a week. That consumed much of our money. Per week, we spent a minimum of N70, 000. That is, if there were no complaints. The amount covered vaccines and drugs. But if there were complaints, the money would shot up”.
The dialyses and drugs ate deep into their savings with some drugs costing as much as N26,000.
Specialist at LUTH, however, warned that dialyses offered no permanent solution, and encouraged them to embrace transplant. The cost? Seven million naira.
