Tanx bro. I just tried registering and got stuck at a point that stated I must have a bank account with an American Bank. No hope on that. Except u help me in creating the acct since u are based there.

olu4life:
^^ I quite get u. Finally opened d account but its restricted to my fbk page and TT. Also d video thing might not work out due to some reasons. Thank God some nairalanders called the doctor and also the hospital he was diagnosed.Tanx so much bro

EfemenaXY:


Why won't the "video thing" work out? For what reasons?

olu4life:

I have opened the account on the site but its only giving option for my Facebook friends only. No external sources

EfemenaXY:


Do you have a video coverage of the child receiving an echo, and an interview with his doctor as suggested by KA24DETT? On your facebook page perhaps?

olu4life:

The video idea is actually out of it. Cos of the father isn't really down with the video aspect. Plus I uploaded all medical records there for verification and all

EfemenaXY:


Why is the video out of it?

How come the child's father isn't really down with the video aspect - especially if this would make your claim more authentic, and knowing time is of the utmost essence for this very sick child?

olu4life:

Stated earlier the stand of the dad on his child issue being made public. I was d one who persuaded him and had to get his confirmation before coming online. Before I could lay hands on his medical records,took a while. Plus don't think d video is really necessary since its restricted to my facebook page (which most of them are already aware of) and we have given the relevant details and documentations for verification on the site.
Lastly,I'm not close to his residence at the moment. And I know my friend. Hope u now understand?

EfemenaXY:


No, I don't understand.

The father as you claim, is against his child's issue being made public, but yet has no qualms receiving donations from the same public?

Nothing stops you from posting the video coverage here on nairaland to support your cause with nairalanders, seeing as you've been fervently campaigning for aid for this child - especially as it'll support the validity of your request.

What have you got to lose?

olu4life:

Madam,I quite understand your stand. Pray we never be in the midst of trouble to actually understand d situation. Its hard for someone who is well to do to just put his life in public eyes due to reputation and stuff. If not for d treatment dat has really drained all his pocket,he would have footed the bill himself. But the current circumstances is d p.
Then for the video,can only tell him,hope he replies positively.
And can the video help this topic to be pushed to front page? Cos I'm doubting since TEHN refused to help on the issue

KA24DETT:

I have a bank account in US here you can use .
You need to make a video of the kid . You guys need to make a video and interview the doctor. The more convincing it is , the more money you can get . A video of the baby having an echo will be more convincing than an echo result . 3-4 mind video is okay.
Open a Facebook page for him and link that Facebook page to your Facebook and we can like the page . Post updates and pictures of the child with his family .
Get to work on it . $10,000 is nothing. Americans can raise that money in an hour

olu4life:
Sorry for not updating. D zeal is going down cos NLders refused to be of help. Presently they were given appointment at d embassy for 30th. So waiting till then so as to be able to get the visa. Brian is doing fine at the moment with loads of precautionary measures in place such as no one carries him and no form of outing for him. this has been of great help. God will see us through

olu4life:
Finally making plans on getting visa for India. Though money is yet to be complete but we are hopeful. Having appointment at d embassy towards month end. Just pray they can backdate it. And if anyone can be of help in d embassy we don't mind pls. Thanks

olu4life:
Also we got hold of an info recommending us to a particular hospital in India who accepts part payment. And the source also treated his son there. Sent a request already to the hospital and they have given feedback. Just hope it works out.

EfemenaXY:


The more I read your responses, the more confused I get.

You're saying the father's reluctance towards you for putting up supporting evidence to back up your claims, even though his child is in a critical state (as continuously outlined by you on several threads) - is due to pride?? And reputation??

So which is more important, his pride and reputation, or saving his critically ill son at all costs? But more importantly, why are you the one chasing after this instead of the dad in question? Shouldn't you, no matter what your feelings are, respect the wishes of the parents?

A nairalander took the time to detail how you might want to broaden your horizons and possibly get more help by suggesting you do this as far back as the 7th of this month:



Nearly three weeks later with you not taking up the suggestion seriously, you come back, trying to guilt-trip Nairalanders with this post of yours:



And then you decide to push deadlines on people with this subtle threat:



No supporting video evidence or recorded interview with the child's doctor, and yet you eagerly state this vague statement:



What's the name of this hospital in India willing to take on the child's case? Who are the hospital contacts if one wishes to follow this up from that end?

olu4life:
This is the letter from thee hospital. I hope this clears ur doubt finally

olu4life:

Sis,pls calm down and digest what I wrote. Did u get the response TEHN said? And did u follow up on where someone verified by calling the number on the hospital report? This is clear sis. I think u can help out by confirming if the hospital is real cos I'm yet to see where I'm mixing it up. If its scam,it should have fizzled out by now. By d way,the father isn't a nairalander

EfemenaXY:


I am calm.

Whose mentioned anything about this being a scam?

You've got a smart phone haven't you? So how hard is it for you to do a 2 - 3 minute video footage of this sick child receiving an echo, plus an interview with his doctor?

It's not like it's going to cost you anything, is it?

olu4life:

And u finally mixed it up. I stated earlier that I don't live with them and I'm not living close to where my friend resides. Was only able to visit him 2weeks ago. The ball is in his court to send or not cos I'm not on ground presently to pay him a visit or to see the doctor. I work sis. Cool?

olu4life:
EfemenaXY Have u gone through the report from the India hospital I stated? Any further questions ma?

EfemenaXY:


So why are you campaigning so hard for this then, seeing as you've been too busy to go pay them a visit even though it's been nearly 3 weeks since that suggestion was given to you?

You say the father isn't Nigerian. So I take it you're going to tell us neither he, nor his family reside in Nigeria? If not, then where do they live?

olu4life:

Gosh... Pls kindly quote where I said the father isn't a Nigerian. I'm waiting. Thanks

[s]You say the father isn't Nigerian. So I take it you're going to tell us neither he, nor his family reside in Nigeria?[/s] You say the family doesn't reside near you. If not, then where do they live?

EfemenaXY:

Stop trying to digress from the issue at hand.
If this child's life means anything, anything at all to you, you'll get that video coverage of him and a recorded interview with his doctor. The more you kick against it, the more you make your cause look less genuine.

EfemenaXY:


Okay, you did say he's not a nairalander - not a Nigerian. My mistake.

But my earlier questions to you still stand:
