Save A Soul -Lttle Boy Needs $20,000 For Heart Surgery.
Master Chudubem Godswill Tom, 13 months old, has a
congenital heart defect. His parents, Mr. Abochi and Mrs. Ngozi Tom, from
Ariam-Eluelu in Ikwuano Local Government Area of Abia State have appealed to
Abia State Governor, Chief Theodore Orji, to help fund their son’s open heart
surgery in India.
The distressed mother disclosed that all arrangements has been
concluded for Tom’s open heart operation in India but, cried that securing the $20,000 (three million
naira) needed has remained a great challenge.
Narrating what the baby has passed through since birth, the mother said Tom’s life has been that of pains. “Three days after birth, we discovered he had jaundice. So I took him to Airforce Hospital, Ikeja. Tests were conducted on him and we were told he had a heart condition. So, we were advised to take him to Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH).
The doctors there said the same thing. “From there he was referred to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH). There, he was admitted for five days. Since then till date, we’ve been visiting LUTH and my baby has been on medication and we buy the drugs every two weeks. In December 2010, an echo test was run on him.” Continuing, she said their search for funds has taken them to Governor Theodore Orji.
“We do not know who to run to for this help except God, of which we believe He can use anyone to save our son’s life, as He has been using people in other areas.” “We believe Governor Orji sincerely wants to help. But then, we can’t just sit and watch our son die. This is why we have come to beg Nigerians to please not allow death snatch away our joy.
We know Nigerians will not allow our son continue to pass through this pain. So, please, for God’s sake, in anyway people can, let them show some milk of kindness towards little Tom,” she said. Tom’s medical report from LUTH, signed by Associate Professor/Consultant Paediatrician, Dr. C. A. N. Okoromah, stated: “We have enjoyed surgical outcomes for our patients treated at the MOIT Hospital and we are referring Tom to the same hospital.” Note: You may reach Mr. and Mrs.Abochi Tom through Diamond Bank Account number 002 392 2906.

Ears, nose, throat (ENT) surgery comprises many different types of surgical procedures and is one of the oldest surgical specialties. It is also one of the most elaborate fields of surgery, using advanced technology and encompassing a broad range of procedures including major reconstructive surgery.
Typically, ear surgery is used to correct defects causing hearing loss or impairment. Such procedures include tympanoplasty (reconstruction of the ear drum), stapedectomy (removal of all or part of a bone in the middle ear), and cochlear implants (implantation of a device to stimulate nerve ends within the ear to enable hearing). Myringotomy (insertion of ear tubes to drain fluid in persons with chronic ear infections) is another common procedure.
Care of the nasal cavity and sinuses is one of the primary skills of the ENT specialist. Common Surgical procedures of the nose can include sinus surgery, correction of a deviated septum (septoplasty) and relief of chronic nasal congestion. Advanced endoscopic surgery for sinus and nasal disorders can eliminate the need for external incisions and major surgery.
