Please I need responsible advice

Many were coming as suitors but...

Now I'm pained for what he did to me .I'm grieved cos I wanted to lose my pride on my wedding night.
and I'm thinking of leaving him cos I'm hurting so much now.

I feel less of myself and sinful too


Please what should I do?


those that married non Virgin how did your spouse take it. I need to know cos it ll help reshaping my mindset
Sorry you had to go through this dear. From your report, he raped you. You should not treat a rapist with levity. Go to the Police, get a good lawyer and see to it that he spends the rest of his animal life behind bars.
Cut all ties you have with him and stop blaming yourself. See a psychiatrist ASAP for counseling.


Most importantly, rush to a nearby hospital to see a doctor so that you can be screened for STIs. Also, the doctor should give you emergency contraceptive so that you don't have more evil memories from that animal encounter.

HealthRe: 44-Year-Old Woman Dies With Her Twins After Refusing To Give Birth Through CS by gracein: 8:26pm On Jul 10, 2018
Maternal mortality

She was a fool. I don't think any wise person that has tackled infertility should be bothered about whether vaginal delivery or CS.
She was dealing with double high risk pregnancy. Her age already put her at high risk coupled with the multiple gestation.

A normal delivery is one in which both mother and baby are alive irrespective of normal labour or CS. Nigerian women please wisen up.
HealthWhat You Should Know About Drowning by gracein(op): 8:35pm On Jul 02, 2018
DROWNING

Introduction
Epidemiology
Causes
Risk factors
Pathophysiology
Management
Prevention
Complications


Drowning is the process of experiencing respiratory impairment from submersion or immersion in liquid. It is a panic experience. Contrary to what we watch on Nollywood and Hollywood, drowning tends to be a quiet and silent act. Victims expend significant energy trying to keep their head above water and may be too tired to shout for help.

According to WHO, drowning is among the 10 leading causes of death in children and young people in every region of the world. About 372,000 people drown worldwide annually.


Risk factors include
Age: commoner amongst children and young adults
Male sex: because they are more prone to risky behaviours
Alcohol: results in poor judgement
Injuries: could be due to a broken neck from diving into too shallow water which prevents the victim from swimming
Medical emergencies eg. Seizures, heart attack, hypoglycemic coma, etc
Flood disaster
Travelling on water


Causes of drowning depends on the age group of the victim.
¶ infants most often drown in a bathtub
¶ children most often in a neighborhood or backyard pool
¶ teens and young adults (15-25 years) most often in natural water bodies eg rivers and lakes.


Pathophysiology
Drowning occurs within few seconds. The victim struggles to hold his breath under water voluntarily until the urge to breathe due to hypercapnia becomes overwhelming.
Fluid is aspirated into the airways and or swallowed.
Lack of oxygen to the brain leads to cerebral anoxia which stops breathing and aspiration.
Prolonged anoxia leads to irreversible cerebral injury.


Management
Pre-hospital resuscitation begins at the edge of the water. Take off all wet clothing and cover the victim with a warm blanket.
Begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
Rush him to a hospital for proper management.

AVOID abdominal thrust to expel swallowed water as this could lead to aspiration and worsen prognosis.


Prevention
¶ learn how to swim.
¶ never swim alone.
¶ always supervise children closely around water and be certain that they are the objects of your attention.
¶ swimming pools should have barriers to prevent children from entering unattended.
¶ water floatation device eg. Life jackets should always be worn during activities on the water.
¶ never leave infants alone in a bathtub or sink.
¶ alcohol should be consumed in moderation when swimming.
¶ watch out for anyone who seems to be swimming ineffectively or are bobbing in the water in an uncoordinated way and whose head drops under water.


Complications
¶ Brain damage
¶ Aspiration pneumonia
¶ Hypothermia
¶ Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Quite boring. The one I found challenging is the story behind the hymn, "It is well" by Horatio Sparford.

And also the story behind the hymn, "I have decidedly follow Jesus".
