Painful. What help do they need? Most likely she got into prostitution like many Nigerian ladies in accra and eventually got a terminal ailment. There are many good Nigerians living in Ghana that can help. What are the phone numbers you have and the names of friends in Ghana she associated with? National Security team in Ghana like our DSS are quite effective but depends on what you need them for

I have the phone number, I've called the person and he claimed it's a wrong number

I will go online and check their national security number

@Op go to human rights/berekete family radio in Abuja, they can help to unravel this through the Nigerian High Commission in Ghana if possible.

many thanks

This problem is bigger than me

please I need your help to locate the body of igede lady named Deborah that died in Ghana some days ago.

She travelled all the way from Nigeria to live with an unknown person in Ghana for several months if not years, she fell sick recently and she was itted in the hospital, Deborah was communicating with her mom back home during that period but the sickness took another dimension and she was placed on oxygen according to her mom who narrated the story, Her mother maybe out of shame kept everything to herself instead of raising the alarm in the village for help which could have saved her daughter's life in Ghana.

The mother said Deborah was only asking her for forgiveness and prayers when her condition became very critical in Ghana hospital, the mother spoke to her a day before this stranger called to inform them that Deborah is no more.

this stranger in Ghana is not even an igede person, we don't know his identity, we are all confused right now because the person is not helping at all, he's even asking for money and he has threatened to bury Deborah's dead body if the family refuse to send him money from Nigeria in four days

The worst part now is that we don't know where he stays in Ghana, we don't have any information about the hospital and mortuary Deborah was taken to, we don't have anyone in Ghana that will assist us to track the phone number of this stranger and get him arrested.

This is a very complicated issue right now, Deborah's family don't even have any of her picture or port both past and recent because I asked them yesterday.

How do we go about this issue?

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment that provides a patient with 100% oxygen in a pressurized environment. By increasing the amount of oxygen available to brain cells, this can facilitate healing and neuroplasticity.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can improve blood flow to damaged brain tissues, help with brain swelling and activate dormant cells in stroke patients as well as memory recall.

I posted last week about the condition of my mum and someone recommended this therapy. Can she ever get her memory back?

With God all things are possible. But heavens help those who help themselves.

This is stroke. The quickest way for recovery is HBOT.

I'm sorry your mom is sick and I understand this is a difficult time for you.

Here's what we know: your mom was okay one minute, and the next she couldn't move her legs or speak properly. This is shocking and new to you, and I see how it may seem almost magical or spiritual... But it's not. We aren't shocked or surprised by this because we see this all the time.
We understand why this has happened and where to go from here; it isn't spiritual or mysterious.

You are inclined to believe whatever you were told at the facility you took her to since they are supposed to be more knowledgeable on the matter, but I can assure you that this has nothing to do with typhoid. They've only successfully wasted your time, money, and some of your hope that hospitals know how to treat diseases.

It is not arthritis either because that affects the ts gradually over years in an entirely different way from this.

What it appears she has is a Stroke, just as you suspected. Most likely this was caused by high blood pressure.
How?
Well, when the blood pressure is really high, especially when it's been that way for a long time, it usually causes damage to the blood pipes, especially those in the brain. Instead of blood flowing around gently throughout the body like a steady stream, it rushes around the body like a raging storm. That is where the damage comes from.

Unfortunately, that often causes the blood pipe in the brain to be so damaged that it can suddenly become blocked/or blown and whatever that part of the brain is meant to control will simply not function properly. It's usually the arms, legs and speech that are obviously affected.

What to do next:
Ideally we would need a brain scan to confirm what we suspect (a stroke). The scan will cost upwards of 50k depending on where you are, and it will show us evidence that a stroke has occurred. Additional tests are usually needed to check on the heart, liver, kidneys, sugar level, and cholestrol , since we often find problems there in people who have high blood pressure. Those tests may be fine, and some of them may not be fine. Better to know so we can start treating early.

It would seem to make sense that the priority is to control the blood pressure, but that's not the case. Meaning: the fact that her blood pressure is better doesn't mean things are fine now.
With a stroke, it's a matter of how badly damaged that part of the brain is. If it's a minor injury then many people will recover the function over time; if it's a major damage, there's usually nothing that can be done. There's hardly any way to tell that now so we just have to wait to see how she recovers.

You will hear a lot of random ideas about some spiritual or herbal treatment, and you'll be so confused by it all you'll just try whatever you see. It doesn't help. It's almost always a waste of time and money, and hope.

What can help: go to the general hospital closest to you. They will stress you but they will help.

What does that help look like?
Well, the tests already mentioned.
Then the appropriate drugs.
And usually physiotherapy later on.

If you take her home, she may or may not show some improvement but you will not see the next stroke coming if one does happen because the biggest fear in someone who has suffered a stroke is a repeat stroke. Please go to the general hospital so your money and time spent would actually count for something.

I hope you have a better understanding now and I hope you are able to make the right decision in this difficult situation.

thanks so much, I appreciate your input

Gen Z and misplaced priorities

I was about to send 100k to someone when I saw her comment about boycotting GTB because of VDM's arrest.

I told her I'm not sending and that I'm disappointed in her.

You guys want to boycott GTB because Very Dark Man was arrested? Isn't that an act of wickedness and foolishness?

Very Dark Man isn't feeding you, doesn't know you, and you have relatives and friends working at GTB yet you are encouraging people to boycott GTB.

Would you prefer having them jobless because VDM, who allegedly committed a crime, was arrested?

You need to think twice before speaking.

I know you love Very Dark Man, but please, let your love not be blind.

When he's wrong and we point out his mistakes, don't abuse or attack us.

Use your head and don't be carried away because you're VDM fans.

We who correct him are actually his biggest lovers.

You guys who hail him when he's wrong are his biggest problem and haters.

Take it from me, I'm disappointed in you guys.

ChybuzzDD:


This is superstitious bullshit.
Inheriting things from her mother is normal and doesn't have anything to do with her current illness.
If you believe it's spiritual, why is/was her BP high?

tradition is real, but we believe more in medical treatment

ChybuzzDD:


Your mom has had a stroke.
Have you got a brain CT scan done?
Take her away from that useless roadside hospital that's treating her for Typhoid and take her to a standard hospital, preferably a teaching hospital or FMC.

we're also suspecting stroke

Nlfpmod

We are also praying for God's intervention

There's a traditional angle to this problem, her own mother died two years ago and going by our tradition, a woman cannot inherit or take anything from her mom when she dies, except the one given to her willingly when her mom is still alive.

My mum collected some money from the property of her late Mom that was sold, just a little money, she handed it to my brother to keep it, but we've returned it since last week, it is a complicated issue, she actually wanted to use the money for the cleansing of her late mom's remaining property

Is my grandmother behind what is happening?

I need some help from doctors in the house

My mum complained of severe headache last week Wednesday morning, but she was able to move around on her own, infact she cooked the food we ate that same day, she said she did not feel anything in one part of her brain down to leg which is a sign of stroke

we bought some drugs from pharmacy and she took them the evening of that Wednesday, but by Thursday she couldn't talk and walk on her own without , you just can't understand anything she says till this moment, she doesn't recognize anybody

we took her to hospital on Friday morning to run some tests and she was itted, her blood was taken for test, result came out and the hospital commenced treatment, her BP was very high then but it has come down.

The doctor said my mom has serious typhoid which might have triggered the current condition

My question now is, can typhoid cause this kind of situation? Is this a stroke or arthritis because she can't move her two legs

We are planning to bring her home because there's no improvement since we we took her to hospital, except her BP that dropped, more tests will be conducted outside and we are considering using herbal drugs for the treatment of stroke and typhoid together with other supplements.
