ideykwum: Lol! I like your honesty! Very refreshing, especially in this cocktail of deceit called Nigeria. Women are very interesting subjects! I have a theory that says every woman is a world of adventure of her own, and fraught with different heights of excitement, risks, profits and losses! I'm getting curious about Mikwus...
On a more serious note, I think this is where the power of strategic focus comes in! If we can all do personal SWOT analyses, we would find how best to seek for knowledge that aims to accentuated our strengths, shore up our weaknesses, aid in securing opportunities and ameliorate threats! Strategic directional reading is the name of the game!
Alas, I'm blown by every wind of doctrine, especially the gospel according to Mikwus...m.

It was even difficult choosing which one book to read....and then all of a sudden certain factors will simply give me a greater pull towards a particular one. I have so many interests. Politics.

I even know medical doctor couples with children with sickle cell disease despite enormous information at their disposal ! It's because the system has failed us. We need re-checks and cross-checks because 1 or 2 labs don't get the results right. Stop the blame game |

What problem will flogging them solve. These parents have only succeeded in increasing their curiosity because obviously, they see them do 'it'. So why flog me and then daddy and mummy do it at night.
They are both old enough to be taught about sex in a the way they can understand, and told the virtues.
Sex is not bad. Flogging them will only make them more curious and feel dirty each time they do it when they become old enough or married.
A lady was told sex is bad and she got married as a virgin and wouldn't let her husband come near her because she was told it was BAD
Its time to know when to begin educating kids and when to draw the line in terms of our attitude and words around them.
My opinion though. |

Lamispaco: Was having a discussion with an aunt of mine over the internet,facebook in particular...
We were talking about different feelings people have when it gets to that moment during a white wedding in church...when the pastor ask the congregation
"Is there anyone in the congregation that has a reason why the groom and bride shouldn't be joined in holy matrimony"
Now this is a question for the married ones,how was the feeling at that particular moment..
To the players and runs girl aiming to get married legally how would it be then...repent... It happened in Enugu a few years back. The guy's side chick heard about the wedding and caught a flight from Abuja to Enugu that morning. She said the guy promised to marry her and she was pregnant at the time. Parents of both parties and Reverend held a little meeting while invitees waited. About an hour later, they seemed to have had an agreement and the ceremony continued, I doubt if they are still together. |

HungerBAD: In the entirety of your story, not once was the word LOVE used. You never loved him, but AGE was on your side and that is the only reason you got married.
I feel no pity for you. Love is not enough. Even the so called love birds have issues. Would you marry a woman that would respect and honour or the one that loves you but disrespects you? |

Hmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!! I weep for this young lady and my heart goes out to her. From her story, all she needs is money to get by since she says her parents pay her school fees.
I don't know what city she currently resides and schools in but, there must be something she can do to salvage the situation. As she is right now, she doesn't need to jump into any other relationship until she heals properly, emotionally, physically, socially etc.
You can mail me or she can mail me through nairaland 'cos i won't leave my email address here.
I know someone who will be glad to help. We will help her. |

Dahjhi: Now this is wonderful... I will try out Jobelyne also.. Although my story is also similar to all. Do play like other kids as a toddler, soccer, running e.t.c. (although I do feel weak after those activities but the next hours I will be fine). Missed many classes in school due to malaria as a kid, I do wounder why are other children not having !malaria like myself -my bro is also a warrior but I noticed he's more fit than me-... until one day in J.S.S 1 I will say a friend said to me after a fierce fight 'you that you won't reach 14 before ur death.' Since that day I knew what I'm I, the next available person is my mum, I asked her if thats true. Then she said to me 'You shall not die but live'.. Since then I tried to know myself. I got answers: I knew the reasons why my mum want me to be a doctor (lol, ala n shiere.. For her dream..) Along the line my mum got saved and belief solely in God.. Then her faith was transfered to me too. Whenever a warrior in the neighborhood 'stopped running' mum will come to us and lay her hands on us and prayed.. We've got an uncaring dad though.. He want another male (which aren't coming till date).. Finished my sec school.. Warriors stopping running at the left n right.. 2008 was the last time i got admitted and it was malaria. Anytime i fall sick and mum ask shall we go to hospital if i said yes then she knew im really sick, i hate the four walls of clinics.. I was admitted and just transfused with 5packs of water 'I'm dehydrated- Twas that years I gain my admission. My 4 years in school was fun at its peak. I took part in every activities (each year with one political post or the other, from S.U.G. to association.) Through my years in school i met other 2 warriors 1 'Stop running' in the second year the other after weve graduated. Till date I haven't been transfused nor admitted again. Only treating malaria as a matter of whenever it arises.. I will clock 28 in July why my bro will clock 30....To make it easier I'm recruited into a govt hospital.. Surviving on and on with the spirit like..''I Cheated on my death, broke up with my fears.. Though it took so long but now I'm married to my future''
You're such an inspiration.Whenever people told me I could not live to a certain age, I always respond 'I will attend your funeral' seemed harsh but I had to make a confession more superior to theirs. Fear is the only thing that limits humans. For a warrior, its good you've broken up with it. I'm 30yrs old. I have 2 siblings who are warriors as well, ages 38 and 40 respectively. We will keep being a wonder to our world and generation. Keep trusting God. And please try out jobelyn |

treasuremabel: Huh?? Unripe plantain? I thought we are supposed to avoid those cos of its iron content??  Wow thank you so much! You are the only one here who has made me known that am on the right track on my refusal not to depend on drugs. Thanks for sharing, am also trying out a routine free of drugs, just taking fruits n enough water n I want to see how it goes, if you can do it, I can do better after all,we are all warriors! Thank you very much ma  You're most welcome dear. The iron in unripe plantain is different from the iron in drugs. So unripe plantain is good for you (feel free to verify from your doctor) Feel free to eat anything that has been given to us by GOD. Eat foods and fruits in season. Some other things I do are the use of natural remedy for very simple ailments. I use honey a lot. I never run out of honey. Garlic for antibacterial purposes ....etc. You can inbox me for more info Take care. |

treasuremabel: Wow! I've never had blood transfusion but currently my PCV is around 28% that's why doc prescribed astymine. What's your secret to stable PCV? Any special diets? Please share cos I'd like to learn more And do you take folic acids everyday or mayb bico, or multivitamins? don't take folic acid and B Complex all the time. I only use those whenever I'm treating malaria which is like every 4 months. Jobelyn is a good herbal supplement. Its a wonder drug made by 'health forever' try it for just 1 week and check your PCV, you will be amazed. Though I've not used it in about 3yrs but I used it for so many years and I never had issues. In fact we used it (my siblings and I, 2 older siblings of mine are also warriors - aged 40 and 38.) I am 30 years old. So for eating healthy, I eat lots of vegetables even in with noodles. I drink lots of water and anything that's fluid. I don't take alcohol at all, no matter the pressure. I don't stress myself at all. Growing up, doctors used to warn my parents. So anything that would give me heartache, I avoid it like a plague. Whatever I can't do, I don't force myself to do it. I cover up real well when its cold. I sometimes wear socks in the office and I just don't care who is looking. When its hot, water is my Buddy. When its cold I force myself to drink lots of water as well. I try not to worry about things after all HE said 'cast my burden in HIM' My family loves me. My friends are a blessing so I'm never looking for care or love out there but find ways to give love back, this in turn keeps me very happy. I just believe and tell myself each passing moment that I'm beautiful, I'm loved, I'm brilliant and I'm stronger than even someone with the AA genotype. (Trust me, it works). As you can see, nothing really extraordinary, but you can try anything here you haven't been doing or use jobelyn. One of my favorite food is unripe plantain. Its really healthy, I prefer to eat it as porridge with lots of vegetable in it |

shadowripper: treasuremabel
What medications do you take?
Cos I still cant beliv you dont use drugs even if you dont depend on them
At least hydroxyurea I am a warrior. I don't use drugs. I had my last blood transfusion at age 8. I last had crisis about 7yrs ago. Before I completely stopped medication, I used to take jobelyn. I stopped about 3yrs ago. I just eat healthy, stay away from stress, drink lots of water and cover up well when its cold. . My PCV is always above 35%. I check every month and my doctor is amazed. So if she says she isn't using any medication. Believe it. All things are possible if we just believe. #SickleStrongByTheBloodOfJesus |

What used to be known as 'the black man's disease' is now celebrated globally because it's now everyone's headache. The level of ignorance amongst the educated about Sickle Cell is appalling. The most people know about it is ' a man with and woman with the AS genotype will produce off springs with SS genotype' shikena  But what do you think it is? Is it a disease? Is it an evolution? Is it a mutation? Is it a curse? Is it a burden or a blessing? Let us educate each other thereby creating awareness about Sickle Cell Anaemia. Ignorance is the real disease and 'can kill'

Nicklouse: This is my second nairaland account and not my original just for the sake of this post and other stuff. I recently married this beautiful 24 years old Lady about 4 months ago. We married in a church and the wedding was great. Our honeymoon was also great.
She is always demanding sex.. When i say NO she would romance and seduce me so much that i have no choice but to give in up to 8 times a day. Especially weekends. During the working days, she would ensure we copulate at least 3 times in the morning before she leaves for work and up to 3 times at Night before we sleep and sometimes in the car in traffic as our work places are very close so we leave together.
I am getting tired of this. The day she came visiting to my work place.. we had sex there in my office. I dont know whats in her head right now i need help. Nairalanders please help me.
I reported to her family they have ignored my complaints.. She is a very young, beautiful and irresistible girl so i can barely control my self even when i do not want it. I threatened to divorce her, she said i cannot divorce her just like that. She is right, i cannot. I wont dare judging by the family she is coming from. An iron born family.
I am now angry, sad, and confused.. She is even sleeping by my side as i type this i am sure by 5:00am tomorrow, another round.  Hypersexual disorders are linked with some kind of hormone imbalance in some women. Unfortunately, there is no cure and this in turn can make it "difficult" for pregnancy to occur. You don't need all these pastors and family members who are clueless, go and talk to a gynaecologist, one who knows his job. If you're in Lagos I can direct you to one. This same issue almost destroyed a relative's marriage. Its a rare case and unfortunate you're one of the men to suffer from this. She's fine and its not her fault cos she was born this way, its time for you to dig deep and understand this thing and work it out. Goodluck |
