Video of a word of appreciation from the father of the baby with hydrocephalus,updates about his condition and a call for more support
Good day steemians, @steemhelpinghand is here again, we are here to show our appreciation for the massive love and support we have gotten so far from our introduction,to our first charity project.
the story of Daniel Adebisi the 8 month old baby suffering from hydrocephalus
Daniel Adebisi, a cute baby boy that came has a bundle of joy to his family, in may 2017, all of a sudden turned out to be their worst nightmare, after 2 months of Daniels birth the parents discovered something was terribly wrong, as his head was increasing as the day went by.
"The sudden transformation threw my wife and I into panic and fear as we have never seen anything like this in our lives"
Daniels father said,
"we took him to the general hospital here in shomolu, the doctor reffered us to the LASUTH(Lagos state university teaching hospital) ,
"Getting there my family was instructed to take Daniel for a computer tomography scan, while that was going on, the doctor took us into a hall where, we met 5 different families with the same condition, I felt so relieved, at least now I know we are not alone and I was able to cast away all the thoughts running through my head, but amongst all the babies there my baby's head was extra large"
when the scan result came out, it revealed that Daniels malfunction was as a result of maximal hydrocephalus.
This poor family had to charter a taxi when ever they had to take Daniel to the hospital,After several visit to the hospital, the doctor drained the fluid from the head,there was noticeable changes after the fluid was drained three times.
Daniels head has become so heavy that, when ever his head is placed down to lay him to sleep his head develops sores, for this reason, there is not much that can be done to help him, until sores heals in order to avoid further sores that can eventually affect his brain.
From our previous post we stated that
For Daniel to return to the healthy state and bring back the joy his condition has taken away from his family, the family of Mr Jacob Adebisi is seeking for help from the steemit community, according to them, the medical consultant, stated that the cost of Daniels surgery and rehabilitation is 1.2 million naira, which is equivalent to 500SBD.
we where able to generate 55 SBD from that post, yes we initially got over 200$ from the post but due to the Dip in steem our payout reduced to 159$, and of course the Dip in SBD price has doubled our initial SBD target. (screen shot of the cashed out money)
Donations
we got our first donation of 25sbd from @paradise-found and we where featured in his #greatfulvibes post, we really appreciate your support sir, we got a donation from 6sbd from @fr and a 10steem donation from @cryto , and a huge contribution of 250steem was made from @infovore.
@steemhelpinghand appreciate your support.
we paid our second visit to the Family of the adebisi's on the 3rd of February 2018,
basically to get updates and current medical documents.
Me Adebisi stated that their next appointment to the hospital
is Monday 5th of February, so we could not get enough current documents, we confirmed his words on their appointment cards below.
we took more photos with the family, and and gave them updates on our our effort to generate the money for third baby's surgery.
he sent his words of gratitude to the steemit community, and asks for more support to save his baby's life.
we plead with every member of steemit community, to continue with their good deeds you have all started no matter how small, let's bring back the beauty and joy of this baby back to his parents.
Why should you trust us??
The 4 members of @steemhelpinghand @phunke @stevendion @stevenmosoes @thomasgift are members of @genesisproject , @steemnaira and @steembees community communities that has contributed to the grow and development of steemit community.
when we do get the required amount for this project from the post @steemhelpinghand will be going to the hospital with this family to make payment, and proof of work will be shared with the community. Liquid payout from this post will be used for that course.
The non-liquid payout(steempower) will be used to create more awareness for the project, support other charity projects on steemit, also used to keep all new members @steemhelpinghand bring into the community.
