“I thought it was malaria, I never knew
my health was deteriorating. Only God has sustained me todate with financial
support from my aged father who has sold off all his properties just to keep me
alive. Adeola had a daughter when she was diagnosed said: “I was rushed to
National Hospital, Abuja in October, 2015. On 3rd April, 2016, my husband drove
me and my kid to my parents in Lagos, under the pretext that he was going to
source for money for my treatment but he never returned till date.”

N50,000 per session since 2015 requires the life saving transplant as soon as
possible. A relative has offered to donate the replacement kidney, but the
procedure id being delayed by lack of funds. Adeola and her family are pleading
with kind-hearted Nigerians to come to their aid financially. If you are moved
