The stroke woman in her early 60

Hi good morning everyone. I am happy to see the brightest of today. Hope my post meet you in good condition. Many blessings to you as you carry on your activities today.

Yesterday was a busy one for me. I went to Cambridge school as i planned to impact lives of children. While i was there a call came in and i was asked to come to see a stroke patient. I promised them that i will be there in 2 hours time. Immediately i was through with the school, i paid my way to Ndonebom in Uran LGA where the woman is.

To my surprise, her husband was also on stroke. His own started 2 years ago while the wife own was late last year 2022. They are in a pitiful condition. Their Son Samuel who is in His early 30 is the one caring for them. The young Man explained the situation of His parents and i gave way to tears. Even the Man who directed me to their compound could not hold His tears as this young Man was telling the story with tears.

I could not take the picture of the husband. While this young Man was talking to us, His parents were crying too. The father said His Son has suffered so much and the wife cried uncontrollable.

How will I help.

Hmmmm, it wasn't easy for me to make decision on what i will do because it will cost a lot of money. I started by giving them some comforting word from the Bible. I quoted what is in Isaiah 33, 24 where God through His prophet Isaiah gave mankind hope that a time will come when no resident will say i am sick.

They wiped out their tears as i said comforting Bible messages to them. I also related experiences of those who are in the same situation and how God helped them. There is this common believe in Akwa Ibom State that stroke is caused by an enemy so they try to get solution from prayer house and things like that.

I helped them to see that stroke is caused by insufficient blood flow to the brain. I explained what poor blood circulation can cuase. As an adult, always eat healthy and check your blood percentage regularly. Keep your beep in check and avoid food high in calories.

Practical steps for their recovery.

  • Drink water leaf juice 3 times a week to strengthen the bone and supply needed vitamins in the system.

  • Drink blended fresh tomatoes with onions to strengthen the wall of the bladder.

  • Drinking of warm water early morning to activate the organs to function very well.

  • Eat more fruits and vegetables to help the digestive system to avoid indigestion.

  • For the wife to chew chewing gum to help her jaw so that she can speak well.

  • To use Neem oil to massage their body regularly.

  • They should avoid cold food or cold water.

  • Then by next week, with the help of family members and friends. We will be able to buy Ayurvedic products for their complete healing. Although it will take a little time.

Conclusion

In conclusion, I thank God for his blessings. Please do all you can to prevent stroke. Women are suffering stoke so much this time. Many of them are too busy to check their health while taking care of their families. Please my fellow women, take care of yourself. If your body need rest, give to it if not you may pay high when the challenges come. No one will love to experience that.

I appreciate you all for reading.
