A doctor forgot a scissors in my sister stomach after surgery and we lost her 😭 On the 28th March 2026 my sister okolie ngozi blessing ,went for a fibroid surgery at OAR medical center in ilepo abule egba ( igoke estate) ,which led to the beginning of of my sister dilemma .The operation was said to be successful 3 days after the surgery(on March 31st) my sister was complaining about serious stomach pain ,and her stomach started bloating ,we suggested that the hospital should run a scan to know what is going on but they refused telling us even if we do scan we can’t see anything that will cause for Alarm ,but the severe stomach pain didn’t stop . After the back and forth for 10 days (April 7th) after the surgery they finially referred us to a clinic to do scan,and a nurse from the hospital followed,on getting to the clinic ,we found out they don’t even have a scanning equipment 🤦♀️.we decided to take her to another clinic to run a scan ,the nurse that followed was against it but we insisted .The scan result showed that they left An Artery forceps in my sister stomach 😭🤦♀️. We got back to the hospital showed them the result they decided on operating her immediately but as at then my sister was already too weak for another operation we begged them to refer us to a better hospital they refused and went ahead with the operation. Two days after the second surgery, she was still weak, her stomach still swollen. We kept on begging them to refer her, but they refused😭. On April 11, around 3 a.m.when their fuel finished while she was on oxygen, and they said they don’t have fuel again. We took her out of OAR Medical Centre and drove her to LASUTH . Six days before we took her out of the hospital Dr Abiodun Ojifinn, was nowhere to be found. Every time we called, he kept saying he would come the next day, but he never showed up. At Lasuth, they asked us to pay for the ICU immediately which we did, and she was admitted. Just one day in the ICU, they told us her heart had stopped. My sister Blessing Okolie could no longer breathe. Cc: Zubby Allstreet
This is exactly how some Nigerian Doctors still want Nurses to carry tray ând follow them like dum baby. Don’t get me wrong, if I have a duty to perform as a Nurse, like setting up the trolley for a procedure or passing over an instrument to my doctor during a procedure in order to maintain sterility, why not? It’s my duty ând I was trained for it but carrying stuffs like this behind a doctor during ward rounds is archaic and primitive, though it’s very possible some of them (doctors) still operates like this in their different private hospitals. I can use tray or trolley to perform my professional duties ând not to carry it and follow a doctor like mgbiiiiiiiii Hehehe 😂 #Humour #humourbuttrue
@HubWendy I have been in a hospital where a nurse catheterised the vaginal for a woman going in for myomectomy So many other repeated errors! Nurses would rush Ca Gluconate, Aminophylline. Medications you're supposed to give over 30mins.
Wait! Pharmacists, Nurses, MLS, Radiographer and others to be under MDCN. From where to where, like as how nah???🙄🙄🙄🙄
