My brother's Agony of kidney failure

in STEEM FOR BETTERLIFE7 months ago (edited)

Hello Steemians,

My greetings to all Steemians around the world, I really appreciate God for this opportunity of life that God has made possible for we all Steemians today, may the name of the lord be glorified in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

It is very unfortunate that many people could not appreciate God for the life and good health that the Lord God has given to them today, this is because of their level of ingratitude and comparisons of their lives with other people's own.

Hmmmmm... how I wish some of this people know's the level of pain, stress, lack and sufferings that my elder brother has been passing through all this while ever since November 2022 till now.

My brother became sick by the end of November 2022 So, we took him to the hospital and alots of medical test were conducted and it was confirmed that both of his kidneys have failed.

Ever since that time he has been on dialysis all this while just to keep his life going because dialysis is not the solution to the kidney failure but it is just a function that the machine perform to flush the fluid in his body system since he can not urinate.

My brother use to undergo dialysis 2 times in a week and just be a session of dialysis cost 40, 000, and he has been doing it since 2022.

My brother's case has caused a lot of instability to all of my family members financially and emotionally, we have spent all we have yet the case is as it is. Hmmmmm...

Each time he doesn't go for dialysis because of the lack of money he will no longer be able to sleep and breath again , infact my brother is really passing through a hell right now.

Below are his pictures on dialysis:

Doctors has advised us for the transplant of the kidney but there is no money for it. My brother has sold his house, lost his job and we have spend all we have as family members.

The doctor said the transplant is 23 million naira but we don't have the money for the transplant.

I therefore used this opportunity to appeal to you fellow Steemians and the whole world to assist my brother in this his miserable condition so that he can under go the transplant of his kidney.

Please anything you have is not too small and God will bless you as you save his life.

Brother, I am so sorry to see your brother look like this, I know how hard it is because my uncle was in this situation for several months. In this case, I personally advise you not to set @worldsmile as a beneficiary to support your brother instead worldsmile will try to support you.

My friend had dialyses 3 times a week and only felt 'well' one day per week. It's suffering.
I wonder how much Steem you are talking about.
It will not stop after one "new" kidney he will need meds too plus that kidney, if accepted, will last about 5 years.

I hope Steemians can help out your brother.

Thank you very much for your concern, but what step can I take for Steemians to help my brother?

Can you tell me about how much Steem we are talking?

For now I advice you to join the contests!
https://steemit.com/contestalerts/@disconnect/contest-alerts-active-contest-list-on-25th-apr-2024

It is a way to reach out to as many as people possible.

You can start or end each post with a link to this post.

Or start with a piece of the text next the link. Say: I am writing this with a heavy heart because of my brother...

Even if another kidney is not possible the donations can help lift the burden but you need to be an active member as well!
You cannot stay away for months and come back asking for money since you are new, no one knows you so writing, engaging is important.

You can also write underneath your post: I write in the hope to support my brother's illness.

Note: Without posts people can not upvote you.

@el-nailul will see if @worldsmile can give you a hand with donations they receive and we hope Steemians will upvote you as well.

Since we all do not share the same time not everyone can answer on the spot.

We can do our best but not guarantee to solve this problem.

This is very painful, running a dialysis twice in a week, 40,000 thousand per day for almost two years now is not an easy task, despite the tough economic situation which we are all facing.

I pray Jehovah will help him to stay strong and get the support that you can from the platform.
Condolences dear friend.
