Na wa o! these are the things we keep shouting about. Nigerian medical care has a long way to go. I just got off the phone with DJDOLAs elder brother and he said they are at the abeokuta hospital and are "waiting for their turn" and " their turn might be by 6pm". An emergency being made to wait for 2 whole hours? He did say the OP has been sedated and is now sleeping.

Na siddon look I dey. First impression they say matters. A proper medical set up would wisk the OP straight into ICU and not even sedated yet because already he is having difficulty breathing and is takibg shallow breaths. This is just a big mess.

Dats naija for u.

U might think health is wealth, but not in Nigeria. If two pple don manage buy jeep dat means the whole country is wealthy.

Dat was wat killed my cousin's bf. He collapsed at work and went into a diabetic coma, he was rushed to specialist hospital in Benin and the immediately fixed a drip for him. With 4hrs he was dead . They later discovered he was given insulin overdose which killed him.

No enquiry was done, no questions asked, no compensation .

tyson99:
What is this one saying Send him money for ticket nah pastor kor woli ni,sengbene

Tell pastor Kingsley to first heal all the sick pple in Aba.

DJDOLA:
I can still travel far if am comfort wit were am sitting down....for d abeoukuta hospital if the man see me and can not handle it my uncle said he will not admit me...and for LUTH..luth is not as before anymore am in ward 2a I swear some people are there morethan 2 years still yet they are not ok and dis people are spending money...the way treat people at luth is not wat 2 write home...and for some guys that said maybe I don't want 2 used d money NL send 2 me..my uncle don't no NL send me money only my brother my dad and mom no about it..my uncle said the man we charge me up 2 400k if he can do it...and if he can't do it I will from there go 2 ibadan teaching hospital....PLS GUYS DON'T GIVE UP ON ME....caracta thank for understanding

OK,

The man sees u and say he can treat u,

u pay advance, treatment starts, 10 days later GOD forbid u r not improving.

what next ??

by then u have spent maybe 200k on further test, medicine, admission fee etc.

if u can travel, why dnt u go for the most recommended?

ur system is being damaged daily with all the fluid and God knows wat that has caused that swelling.

also, contact ifyalways if she can help u with reddington, i hear its the best hospital in lagos.

r231:
Since Reddington is good, can't they just go there and we try and solicit for the rest of the money!!

seconded.

ifyalways said she can pull some strings there,
pls discuss with her.

thinkdip:
NL's should take this guy out of there, I sense the family are trying to play games, the money is already in the account, what's stopping them from taking him to luth, I sense something, pls, let's radically force them to respond and take the guy to the hospital so that they won't play games with his life.

The OP is still very much lucid.
he is an adult, he shud tell the family where he wants to be treated.

I wish him luck all the same

Caracta:
Ok. I just got off the phone with his mum. She made me understand the reason for Abeokuta and how similar cases have been treated there successfully. A family member has also been there. A case of "tested and trusted". She said it's no trado-med centre...all modern with equipped laboratory. Arrangements have been made concerning transportation.

I spoke with the OP too. He has never been to the hospital but I made him promise to let me know the situation of things as soon as he gets there. He has been to LUTH so he can make comparisons. The moment I hear that the so-called hospital is nothing to write home about, he has to leave IMMEDIATELY. Told his mum too.

I don't know if it's a good idea to have a Nairalander with them. I have a nice person on standby but I'm not too comfortable.

I'm sorry if I can't respond to all mentions. I've been on mobile all day.

So I guess, final decision for now is Abeokuta...first thing tomorrow.

my dear u have tried.
God bless u.
I dont think u should send a nairalander with them , it might feel like u r trying to monitor them or spy on them.

Once he gets there, then u can send someone to visit him and access the situation.

dapsy4u2:
.

My dear it is Reddington Hospital on Idowu Martins Street, off Adeola Odeku Street, Victoria Island. They are the best private hospital in. Lagos but the cost is way too expensive.

Tnk u jare

I for Google am fitst. Never been there but heard they are very good.

They could even offer some services for charity in this case.

Guys get this thing on tv in naija. U will be surprised one doctor will come out dat can pull strings in the health sector.

Artistree:
I just got off the phone with Hamed, he says his family is insisting on not taking him back to LUTH cos of the embarrassment they got when he was first admitted there.
Can someone or a group of people go down there tomorrow and discuss with his family pls? Op is NOT supposed to be at HOME! He should be following this thread from a HOSPITAL bed for Chrissake!!! I have my heart in my mouth as I type this cos I fear for him, I fear for his survival.
Whatever has to be done should PLEASE commence tommorow, time is of great essence here and sentiments should be flung aside. Once again, I sincerely thank EVERYONE who has made this campaign a success, while mankind awaits a sickness-free world, I hope Hamed regains his health soon. Caracta, Gboliwe and those I didn't mention, pls don't relent till Hamed is well again. May God bless you abundantly...

There are loads of bad reviews about LUTH but if the hospital knows that the eyes of the nation are on them while the man is there they might just behave themselves.

R.I.P to her

Saraha1:
Wow!!!!!! God bless you ma.

Uwc

Can Reddington not handle this case in lagos?
If not, how about getting an ambulance to take him to UCH tmrw?

Make this no go be case of too many cook spoils the soup.

His case is trending now, , it won't remain so.

Strike while d iron is hot.

Saraha1:
My sister I know how you feel.
Not having time for the family aside from weekend is not an essay task . But my sister do you think is by your power all is going smoothly the way you plan it?
Pls try and resume back to his presence. God bless you ma.

Hey sis

Went to church today.
it was remembrance Sunday

Hypraise:
U are strong and our God will continue to keep u strong till u get well. Amen.

I personally do not think it's ok for you to be carried up and down. U need to be certain that whichever hospital u are taken to now would be able to handle ur case well. What's the name of the hospital in Abeokuta, if I may ask please?

@babyosisi, av heard many sad stories about india o. So am not one to recommend 'run to india'.

Pls doctors in Nigeria here, u shld knw better private or govt hospitals that can handle his case, pls make haste to recommend if u think the Abeokuta hosp isn't best.

Dear lagosians, pls wats the best private hospital in lagos?
Remington??

DJDOLA:
Pls NL I can't go back 2 LUTH again there service is 2 poor...my uncle said he new one private hospital at ogun state that can cure me..he said if they can not do it they will not admit me...so we both conclude that we will try there tomorow morin....so pls NL don't give up on me pls

Madam cracta have been trying 2 call u but it not goin tru

Pls forget that private hospital u re thinking of unless u want to waste this money.

U shud face the ibadan hospital , it has a good reputation pple go there from all over the country.

Time is also of the essence here because damages are being done to ur organs which can become reversible.

Babyosisi who is a doctor has advised india, maybe u shud be thinking of that too.

otiigba1:

Dat one don catch ur attention abi?

Rate na 270 ooo

I keep forgetting to update my signature

otiigba1:
It appears this guy is still languishing at home, what's the point of the whole monetary donations if it is not put to use to get him fast treatment? Typical! I must say

I tire o,

Can he start going to the hospital already.

Richy4:
Excuse me if you miss understood what I was trying to say.
I thought you where somewhere in Australia. That was why I asked where you were doing your finance business.
you said Uk.
Then I said Nigerian ladies doesn't like coming to this part of the world because they feel it is far.
I was not hitting on you or any thing. I am way too classy for that ok.
And it hasn't come to the stage of giving me the number of years you have been married. I didn't ask for the information

Hitting on me ke?

U said single, I was trying to say u are wronh dat am not......

Never mind

msmon:
Hammed (a.k.a DJDOLA), I'm suppose to say this if I visit you but since distance won't permit me, I'm sending this invocation via this medium.

Laa ba 'sa tahoorun in shaa Allah.
'Do not worry, it will be a purification for you, Allah willing'

As 'alullahal 'Azeema Rabbal 'Arshil 'Azeem an yashfiyaka. (x7)
'I ask Almighty Allah, Lord of the Magnificent Throne, to make you well '
Ameen




After reading a few pages on this thread, I saw this picture of you lying on the bed and I feel a sense of empathy and wish I'm not an unemployed graduate.

With tear in my eye, I manage to speak with a doctor friend in UCH and send the pix to him via bbm, he said the ailment is cancer related and that UCH has necessary facilities to handle it. I can link you up with him if you wish to go to UCH in Ibadan. He also promised to do everything within his capacity to ensure you get proper medical attention.


I will not promise financial assistance but I hope Allah will surprise me to surprise you.

Peace Onto You Bro

***modified***
AND

On behalf of DJDOLA, I'm thanking. Every member of NL for their response and assistance (moral, financial, spiritual) and utmost appreciation goes to the mod and Oluwaseun Osewa.

This attest the fact that we love ourselves in Nigeria irrespective of religion, political and tribal differences.

God bless you all.

Tnk u.
I beg tell ur doctor frd say he is wrong . Cancer has been ruled out.

Its ascites, google the images.

Richy4:
Ok. That is cool. Thanks
I forgot you are a lady. And Nigerian ladies especially the single ones doesn't like the country where I am because they thought it was the end of the world. Have a good day

Are we still discussing about sending money home?

Wat has dat got to do with not liking ur country and being married.

for ur info am not single, been married for 17yrs.

Richy4:
the story is kind of funny. But this issue arises when a couple give birth to more kids than they can take care of especially when they are abroad.

Caracta:

Richy4:
I am not married yet but this is how it's gonna be like

My wife: how was your day honey?

me: oh fine sweet. It was hectic today. Though I took some time off to western union to send some money to my mum

My wife: oh that was good. I don't even know when I will have time to do same. It's been a while I sent money to my dad.

Me: why not try Saturday . They open on Saturday bla bka bla.


what is the big deal sending money to your parents

Like u said u r not married yet, wen u are married u will realise is not such a simple task especially if its a monthly bill and u are not very rich.

U both have responsibilities especially wen u have children and there is swimming, karate , extra lectures etc dat ur kids maybe missing outon becos u send money home regularly.

Ur woman will soon start thinking maybe the rest of ur siblings shud do more becos her kids are missing out.

Am into the business of money transfer and there are alot of couple dat dont tell their partner.

Only last week I went to dis couple's house to collect money. The woman kept walking up and down the stairs, panicking and looking nervous kept winking at me and am thinking wats wrong with her , its her husband dats my frd , me n her aint dat close.

I was about living wen she jumped in front overthrowing her husband from seeing me to d door only to squeeze some money into my hand it was then it clicked. I then knew wat all that winking was about

I never even drive reach the end of the street wen she called me explaining what the money was for.
And she has only been in the country for a year. Quick learner

ahnie:
what is wrong with the ichafu/gele?you complain alot.

Ok, sorry.

I proclaim ur gele shud be tied like dat on ur wedding day , oya say amen.

Bossforeva:
there are so many people that can donate two million without making the rest of nairaland know. Seun, Rich guys that live in lagos Island and all this auto dealers that sell Range Rover Vougues and Rolls Royce cant they do something so that this man will protect his identity a little bit by removing it from frontpage.

forget identity,
Person dey die u dey talk of identity

Ok dis is wat boils my blood with Nigeria hospitals.

2 weeks in hospital and no concrete diagnosis , No
Treatment.

If they where saying we need X amount to treat this man , at least u will know where we are heading at this point they are still testing . smh

Op pls put ur account details on ur signature.

RIDICULOUS!!

cant they innovate something we can drive?

How is this going to improve d living standard of the average nigerian?

Who tie this gele?

U really hate dis bride ooo

anyways, dats not the important issue.

HML

mufutau55:
Ah! OK. I didn't know you have tried Muyesky.. yes, may be he was too occupied.
But you got good prices for those burglaries and the door.. may be I will contact you in future when I needed to do more of those for the Duplex project. Let's keep on sharing ideas to keep our cost down. Is Agbara far to Sango-Otta?
Thank you.

Hajji M.

dat wud be great.
My plot is 100 X 130

So I still have main plot to build next year.

am going to Nigeria next march to inspect the project if it satisfactory then I will ask him to start foundation fo 5 flatss

think agbara is about 1hr frm Sango-Otta, or so I heard

mufutau55:
OK. Not bad for the door. I think that is the same price for the doors that Muyesky makes.. I am also in Ogun - Sango Otta.
Keep using the Contractor, just don't play with money with him. keep your eyes open. Good luck.

Hajji M.

tnks bro.

but I wanted to use muyesky, he quoted 60k for a door lile dis one.

few months later I contacted him for burglary proof he wanted 13k for the 6x4 one.

maybe he is too busy so he dey use style drive potential customers.

mufutau55:
That is good price for the work, where is the project, that will factor into the price too.. Mine is in Lagos - more labor cost.
(Sample of one of the window burglary 6x4ft is shown below)

Hajji M.

mine is ogun state agbara.

Am getting paranoid about my contractor, the pple dat introduced him to me have been telling me to stop using him, dat he is dubious.

but am yet to see a substantial issue wit him although 100k miss one time

Here is the door he bought for 45k.
I think its beautiful.

mufutau55:
They are made of 1 inch pipes.... The bigger one and the small one are both N60,000 for the sets. I paid N120,000 for for the two sets.
So the Charges are in pair... but he said N40,000 for bigger sizes and N20,000 for the smaller ones.
Bigger size is 11 x 8ft and the smaller size is 4 x 8ft.

My Window Buglary proofs (also 1 inch pipes) are:
6x4ft = N10k
5x4ft = N8k
4x4ft = N7k
2ft 6ins x 2ft = N3k

The total I did with him for window guards was around N106k, and I just paid him N100k even.
The same Welder did the Windows Buglary, Verandah Burglary and Iron Kitchen Exit doors (N15k each)

Hajji M.

tnx for ur response.

my contractor said mine is 45k for for the verandah burglary proof, he is using 1.5inch, after seeing urs
am going to ask him to use 1inch.

my windows 6x4 and we paid 7,500 naira

total 170k for both flats
