Thanks for sharing this personal issue with us and I wish you the very best..

I'm def gonna miss reading your posts.

oh geee... so sorry to hear that... may God's grace and comfort be with you. will definitely keep you in my prayers.

The adjusting might be difficult... but with time, I am sure you wont wake up thinking "I have an amputated leg... " rather it'll be .."okay what things do I have to do today... "

I am sure you know of prostethics (probly wrong spelling)... any chance of using one? amazin it is what technology does these days...

again, Gods grace to your and your fam. really nice & proud to see your own son excel and help you in that way eh....

Eziachi: Hello people, due to serious health reasons I will be signing off for a while. I HAD AN ABOVE THE KNEE AMPUTATION OF MY LEFT LEG ON WEDNESDAY at my own hospital in central London. The surgeon was my own son, which made it a bit comforting. The leg had been problematic for a long time and I had used all my knowledge and skill as an orthopaedic to managed it until now when it worsen, I was told two weeks ago that the leg is now almost dead and had to go.

I have performed this surgery on hundreds of people over a span of forty odd years, but still, it was mentally challenging waking up for the first time as an amputee. So I will be reading your posts when I can, but will be signing off for a while. You take care.

This goes to show that people NL are indeed good Nigerians and not really what NL has turned some of us into.

Get well sir. I Pray that Angels of God will be your guide all through. AMEN

Wow, get well soon sir.

Wow - one of the very best on NL - take comfort in knowing that most everyone here wishes you the very best and looks forward to you re-joining us after convalescence!

Best wishes and hope that you recover soon, dear Sir!

Get well soon bro...
God is ur strength

The Lord is your strenngth. Get well soon Sir!

Your are a gentleman for sharing personal problem with us. Kudos!

My wife has been an amputee (below the knee) for 2 years. It was not easy in the first 6 months. She lost her leg on Christmas day 2010 to systemic lupus after 4 years of excruciating pain in both legs. My wife is a beautiful lady but this illness has turned her to a 60 year old woman with grey hair, she is only 32. Imagine having 4 different specialist doctors attending to your sickness.

Mazi Eziachi, I wish you speedy recovery and God's blessings.

Your posts will be highly missed in the meantime.

Get well soon, sir.

WOw! May the Almighty be with you. Wish you the very best.

I cant say get well, because you are already well,
With the kind of strong spirit you have! just know we all have you in our prayers, both the ofemmanus and omo ibos!
In this matter we are all together and all wish you longer fulfilling life irrespective of your health challenges

Be strong Sir!

Get well soon. I wish you and your family the strenght in such a challenging period.

Sorry for this challenging situation and I pray that God give you the grace to continue to appreciate her, if not for anything for being the mother of your children.

It is well.

sorry about your wife's condition. It is good you stood and still love her despite her condition. It is very rare for men to show the kind of affection and love you still have for your wife. some wicked and heartless men would have abandoned her to her own fate. God will surely bless you for being a good husband. It is well with your family.
