FamilyRe: My Wife Poisoned My Mother With Salt by AkaraAndBread: 11:06am On Jan 04, 2022
Karleb:
Na you Sabi o.

Maybe you know better than the practitioners that told the old woman to use as little salt as possible in the first place.

Firstly, the wife love excess salt according to the story and the man claimed the wife lied he fed mama with salt laced meal just twice. Who knows the knows the amount of slalt laden meals the old woman consumed?

If you don't know high blood pressure could lead to seizure and some other diseases which could lead to death, then I don't know what to say.

You can as well provide us the non-hogwash version of the story. Wale Adenuga!
Sorry Chief. You know best. Who am I to question your sagacity?

Oga... your problem is ignorance.
I am a doctor and I can tell you that salt did nothing to your mother. It may slightly increase her blood pressure but that is about it.
Your mother is unwell. You have to accept that she will sometimes be even more unwell than she presently is.
If you like, destroy your home. Don't let ignorance destroy you.
Do you know how much salt will be required to make someone unwell? If your wife put in the amount of salt that would have made you mum unwell, your mum would not have been able to to eat that food.
What baffles me is that he said that it was the doctor that told him that.

That is taking "low sodium diet" to the extreme.

NL doctor, Pele o!
My good friend, sorry to burst your bubble but the person you seem to be mocking is actually correct (ironic isn't it)

High sodium levels can lead to fluid retention and also raise blood pressure but any doctor that reads this story will know that this story is pure hogwash.

So our good doctor that attended to Mama now alluded cause of death to hypernatremia abi? And the hypernatremia was caused by consuming excess salt in a meal that was eaten by other people (really??)

And the good doctor could confidently say this to the relatives of the deceased without an autopsy report ( see as some stupid doctors dey scatter family).

Medical practice in Nigeria is indeed amazing.

Obviously you have not visited JUTH in a while.

Do a little investigation about the crisis that has bedevilled JUTH over the past 6+ years before coming to this narrow minded conclusion.

This your story get as e be.
I doubt the kind of salt that would make your mum have a seizure is one that anyone would be able to eat the meal, including your wife who likes salt. And this happened in about a week.
I would look into another cause for her seizures.
Hope she had a brain scan at the hospital because she might have suffered a stroke or ministroke.
Or was Mama having more than the number of tablets she should be having for her diabetes? Was she deliberately/unintentionally being overdosed on antidiabetic drugs that can cause low glucose, which in turn can cause seizures? Who is in charge of giving her the medicines? Can she be doing that by herself?
Or Mama has been avoiding eating food prepared by your wife because it's too salty, and she's still taking her diabetic medication on an empty stomach?
Please investigate further and ask your mum how she has been using her medicines.
It may be better to get her a weekly pill box with days of the week and times to take her medicine, so nobody gets confused about how she should be using her medicines
Both the doctor attending to the deceased as well as the OP are complete idiots.

This story has many holes in it. I would like to meet that doctor who alluded that excess salt intake was the cause of a seizure in an elderly diabetic/hypertensive patient and ask him which medical school he graduated from.

It is even unethical to tell the patient's relatives that the cause of death was from excess salt intake when you don't even have an autopsy report to back up your "hypothesis".

I bet he is the type of doctor below...

FamilyRe: My Wife Poisoned My Mother With Salt by AkaraAndBread:
yemi1504:
The views saying it is intentional seem to have a point! Because if it is really more than twice, that is not even in the negligence territory anymore!
Since we are in the business of trading blames, then I blame the OP and his doctor for his Mum's death. Ignorance should no longer be an excuse in this information age. I will explain...

His mum (from the story) had a seizure, most likely a stroke which led to her death.

Seizures could be from other causes too (electrolyte imbalances, infections, brain tumors etc.) Only an autopsy could help in identifying the actual cause of the seizure post-mortem.

Health guidelines (JNC-VIII) advise that daily consumption of salt should be between 2 to 3 milligrams of sodium or 1 teaspoon of salt per day.

One teaspoon of Dangote iodized salt contains about 2 milligrams of sodium. Even if his wife used FOUR teaspoons of salt to cook the pot of food, it will be (4 x 2mg= 8mg total of sodium) of salt in THE ENTIRE POT of food.

So unless Mama (may her soul R. I. P) ate the ENTIRE POT, then I don't believe that her sodium levels hit the roof like OP is alluding to.

Seasoning like Maggi and Knorr have high sodium levels too (up to 25g equivalent of raw salt per cube) but these will equally be diluted in the entire serving. And Mama would only have eaten a portion of the whole serving.

In fact, I advise my patients to cut down more on seasoning (especially the ones like Ajinomoto) rather than raw salt.


If Mama was hypertensive and diabetic, she should have been on a diuretic to get rid of any excess sodium (*** I'm throwing a shade at the finger pointing doctor***)

Here is what I think happened; Mama had a heart attack which compromised blood supply to her brain (cerebral hypoxia). This now made her to have a seizure (most likely from a CVA).

Most Nigerian doctors with limited experience underestimate the frequency of coronary events in elderly diabetics; a patient population notorious for having several episodes of silent, sub-clinical coronary events (aka mild, silent heart attacks). These mild heart attacks are usually a warning sign of a major heart attack looming.

Now I ask;
1. Was Mama ever screened for coronary heart disease when she was alive?

2. Was she on anti-platelet therapy when she was alive?

3. Even when she was brought into the emergency room were protocols to screen for/counter acute coronary syndrome ever implemented?

If the answer to ANY of these 3 questions is "NO", then please the man's wife should be left alone (in fact if I were her brother I would advise her to divorce that idiot. What manner of man will come to Nairaland and start accusing his wife of such??)

Likewise, what doctor will tell a patient relative that "Cock and bull" story of excess salt being the cause of a seizure??

OP should have taken his Mum to a better hospital for specialist care.

And the doctor should invest his time and money in medical textbooks and current journals to improve patient care and reduce blaming others for his own shortcomings.

R.I.P. to the deceased, but doctor and OP should both learn from this experience to avoid future occurrences.

Don't mind these people calling you a simp.

What your gf needs is to expand her business. The stress of running her business from a shop she shares is telling on her (as evidenced by her sour attitude towards you).

Here is what you should do;
1. Call her aside and talk to her about her attitude towards you.
2. During the discussion tell her that you have rented a bigger shop for her in an upscale neighborhood, preferably Lekki. (Have the keys at hand)
3. Send her a surprise credit alert immediately

You will be surprised how her attitude towards you will change over the next couple of weeks.

PS: All these moves are not a guarantee that she will not dump you eventually after milking you dry (which is most likely going to happen). At least, if she does that you would have learnt a valuable lesson)

Let me get back to the stuff I was reading. I should have finished reading it before replying to your post but there was no time.

SportsRe: EPL: Odion Ighalo To Join Manchester Utd’s Rivals, Newcastle by AkaraAndBread: 8:00pm On Dec 25, 2021
Amotolongbo:
So where is the best option for a 32year old pensioner playing in Saudi Arabia?
Ighalo is a mercenary. He's a good striker that just seems to dislike competitive leagues (just like Asamoah Gyan was) probably because he doesn't want the stress and just wants his money.

He could have had a much stellar career but he always chose the easier way out.

The fact that he is interested in this Newcastle deal (as well as him agreeing to the Man Utd previously) may mean that a part of him still hungers for a bit of glory... Not necessarily titles, but to be a cult hero at a big club.

Some people can pretend and tell you such heart wrenching stories that you would assume that their rugged face is from over-hardship.

That is when you will say to yourself "Let me try this person and see". With time you find out whether you were right or wrong.

This does not justify murdering an 85 year old woman.

Even if the maid was being maltreated what stopped her from resigning and leaving the house. Must she kill the woman?

It is only an evil person that will kill an 85 year old woman. Even if she was maltreated by the Igbinedions, then in hindsight she deserved it.

She should be sent to the gallows where she will be hanged until she is dead.

Hmmmmm....see wahala



If the HIV itself does not kill, the toxicity of the constant retroviral drugs will damage the kidneys, liver and God knows what elsesad


All ways now lead to express cry

Modified...to all those quoting me and telling me I know nothing about what I am talking about...


Please feel free to go get HIV because according to you guys, the retrovirals have no side effect...

It's basic medical knowledge that the kidney purifies whatever is ingested...and when the kidney keeps being overworked by purifying daily ingested drugs, it's just normal it will run into problems sooner or later and allow the toxins in these drugs into the bloodstream...and na dia the raggae go turn to blues

I personally know some people who are living in Nigeria with HIV and the honest truth is that it's not funny for them...strict dieting and compliance with drug dosage, all sorts of precautions to be taken before having sex or even conceiving, and a slow but sure decline in normal immune function...small sickness wey on a normal, no suppose disturb you go kpai you sad

Forget what Mainstream media brainwashes you with. .these HIV guys are sitting on a time bomb...

Life is already hard enough without having to deal with daily drug intakes and immune supplements...HIV is actually a death sentence....sooner or later

I don't know if this dude is even discussing with his lawyer at all.

This matter is most likely going to end up in court. With that in mind, it would be counter-productive to continue giving press interviews or posting things about the case on social media. That would be sub judicial, and may end up causing more harm than good.

The other day the family disclosed that a black substance was found in the late boy's stomach at autopsy, and we're insinuating that it was the concoction he was forced to drink about a week prior (like for real ?? huh).

Stop talking to the press. The message is out there already. Don't give Dowen College ammunition that they will use against you in court with all theses press conferences and social media posts.
