Sudenly the twitching stopped, the spasmodic vibrations that emanated from Dé John's barrel shaped gut seized and a sudden stillness settled on the elder. For a painful second that threatened to stretch till eternity the villagers stopped everything they were doing, they stopped hitting the hospital doors with reddened fist, stopped shouting, chanting and even those brought to their knees by the poison stopped dying, they all looked at the elder as the stillness that originated from him spread within them. Later Osi would replay it in his mind and it still wouldn't be clear, all he would remember is the shout. One minute he's helping the mother hold the young child (as Jelemba hurriedly grinds the mixture) and from the corner of his eyes he's thinking: Dé John hasn't moved.. And the next second, Dé John is on his feet and his fist is in the air, shouting... "I'm alive...it worked!" If somehow time had paused for a second, those words were all it took to 'play' it. And it did just that in a frenzied pace. "It works! It works!" "Give me at once!" "I need it..I need it now!" The people turned from the door and crowded poor Jelemba making the young boy flinch away. The reverend noticed and placed a reassuring hand on the little boy's shoulder. Then he began shouting, his voice booming like a microphone was lodged in his throat as he nudged the people away. "We need to work as one..there are many coconuts and charcoal...we have to assist him" he boomed again and again, clapping his hands and gesturing like a coach might, to encourage dispirited players. And it worked, everyone got busy. Some of the villagers who were not poisoned joined them and before long they were divided in small groups, lending a hand, everyone playing his/her part to get the antidote prepared. Sticks appeared, more coconuts were halved, the charcoal sack was emptied on the ground and before long, the stillness had been replaced with the repetitive grinding sound of the charcoal and utazi Osi winced as he nudged the contents down the throat of the little boy. His chest felt perforated and basic arm movements as he administered the potion brought a wave of blinding pain that threatened to get him horizontal. Still he held on, positioning the child's head so the black liquid won't trickle down his chin. The bottomless fear in the mother's eyes, driving him, pushing him and forcing his lips to part in a prayer. Mama Ezinne appeared amidst the crowd and she hurried over to reverend Okorie (who was definitely in charge) "What can I do to help?" She asked the reverend. Before he could reply, Dé Nwachukwu shouted "The only thing you can do is tell me what you put in the palmwine!" "It...was grounded castor beans..." "What is that?!" Dé Nwachukwu was livid. He marched threateningly to where she stood. "I don't...I don't know...he only brought the powder form to me" she trembled. "Castor...that would be ricin is it not?" Gregory asked as he broke off from his small group(tasked with ripping and shredding the leaves) Mama Ezinne snapped her fingers and nodded eagerly "aha..yes.. rice....rice..." But all focus was now on Gregory. "How do you know all these things?" Joy asked with wide eyes. But Gregory was on a roll. "If it is ricin they ingested, then we have little time...they won't just drop dead without showing some kind of symptom...like diarrhea, for instance..." "Greg..stomachs have been exploding and erupting and you're still looking for a symptom!" The Reverend was exasperated. "What exactly do we need to know about this ricin whatever?" Dé Nwachukwu asked impatiently. "Well, if the ricin has been ingested recently, it can be stopped by pumping the stomach or ingesting charcoal" he snapped his fingers as the idea hit him. "Which is why the potion worked for Dé John!" "So the people in there have a chance with the stomach pumping?" Dé Nwachukwu asked, pointing at the hospital. "Well in cases like these, survivors often develop long-term organ damage. Ricin causes severe diarrhea and vomiting, and victims can die of circulatory shock or organ failure" Gregory explained causing both Osi and the reverend to draw their brows in surprise, who knew they had a walking mass of encyclopedia with them all along! "Well its up to us to stop the organs from failing...let's speed it up...hurry up....that group, grind the leaves, Amara...we need charcoal over here...You and you...more coconuts!" In his younger days, the reverend used to be the choir master, complete with the robe and drumstick and he seemed to tune into the act as he gestured and instructed and there was a bubble of activity wherever he pointed. °•°•°•°• The hospital was another matter entirely. Nkiru was the only experienced personnel and she had over a dozen poisoned villagers, vomiting and gripping their stomach in pain and wailing. She had a badly injured man whose chest needed immediate antiseptic and stitching, and what's more, she had the doctor, the man supposed to instruct her was sprowled on the chair (which had been stretched diagonally) and shouting for her attention. Amara could only run in circles, she knew what to do and at the same time she didn't know what to do. It would have been funny if the situation wasn't so sad. She knew that in gastric suction/lavage, the tube is passed via the mouth or nose into the stomach and small volumes of liquid, preferably warm saline solution is admisistered and removed. But this was her problem: she had to be sure the tube did not get in the lungs, that would be a disaster. Filling the lungs with water instead of the stomach. She could ensure it didn't happen through x-ray(but that wasn't possible, the doctor wasn't likely to get behind the light), or she could inflate the inserted tube with air while listening to the stomach (but she could hardly hear her own thoughts over the noise in the hospital) another method was by pH testing a small amount of stomach contents (but there was no litmus paper, no pH strip/meter and to be honest, she wasn't about to aspirate/suck stomach contents through the tube) That brought her to yet another problem; The tube. The tube looked like something that had been used to transfer fuel during the recent fuel crises and Nkiru was hundred percent sure it was clogged. She threw her hands up in helplessness, as the shouts from the doctor, the nasty sounds/smell that was the heaving and vomiting of the villagers, and also the butcher's shouts turned her head and got her dizzy. °•°•°• And outside a miracle was happening. 27 Likes 3 Shares |
