In line with the annual engagement of my over five years MSL foundation born out of my existential experiences, I visited Federal Teaching Hospital and Mile Four Hospital where my foundation assisted in discharging treated and detained indigent citizens of Ebonyi.
It was an emotional, yet revealing experience, especially with 3-year-old little miss Destiny from Ibeagu IZZI who has been treated for broken limbs and withheld by hospital authorities as a result of her parents’ inability to pay a little to half a million treatment bill four half a year. Her mother who was taking care of her had been amputated from a similar limb accident.
At the psychiatric unit of FETHA, we paid for the discharge of some Ebonyi youths treated for various mental disorders and detained as a result of financial inabilities.
At mile Four, it was festival detention of kids and their mothers after birth as a result of inability to pay hospital bills after birth, from mothers of twins to mothers of pre-teen babies where bills were visibly above parents’ financial burden. We were able to pay for as much as our foundation MSL foundation can bear.
Our Foundation is purposely in pursuit of MATTEW 25:40 that says
“Whatever you do for the least of my brothers, you have done it unto me”
I encourage our well-to-do brothers and sisters to join in occasional means of helping our brothers and sisters in various health Facilities who have been treated and detained From the hospital records, the number is increasing in geometric progression daily.
