Hello NL, I made a post here few days ago about the doctors suggestion of amputating my mums leg as a result of diabetic gangrene. The post can be found here https://www.nairaland.com/6836435/doctors-want-amputate-mums-leg It has been a trying time for us. Thanks to all of you who counselled. I received many replies and emails with great counsel which guided our decision. Many sympathetised with me which gave me a sense of belonging. Thanks nairaland. We yielded to the doctors suggestion for amputation because of the urgency so as to avoid the gangrene from extending to other parts of the body. My mum was amputated within the week and She feels much better now. I must say she is strong now. The wound is fast healing. I have assured my mum that we will get an artificial limb for her so that she will be at rest. My mum is hypertensive and I wouldn't want her to be thinking much. Beyond just making her not to think, We'd like to get a prosthetic limb for her so that she will be able to walk again but my family is financially contrained at the moment. I was told by someone that there are NGO's that give prosthetics to amputees for free or at a discounted rate. I'd sincerely appreciate if you can help recommend any that you know so that my mum will walk again. Thank you very much Nairaland! Cc: Seun Dominique Mynd44 Lalasticla 1 Like |
