Dear IAB Readers,
Below is a message of Appeal for Donations from the wife of Meka Akerejola of Rhythm FM Abuja. He is fondly called "Meka, real name no gimmicks". Please help!
"I am a wife and a mother to a three year old. My husband was
diagnosed in 2011 shortly before the birth of our son, with chronic
Kidney disease (CKD). Along side the CKD, he has also been managing
associated symptoms like High Blood Pressure, anaemia, Oedema,
Uremia and several infections. He has been to India twice and he was placed on drugs to manage the disease. We were told that the drugs won't make the kidneys get better but will only extend the time for which he will require definitive treatment (Kidney transplant). On 14th of march 2015, he had to be admitted for a week in the hospital and has since then has been in and out of hospital. Consequently, he has been placed on dialysis twice weekly. The doctors have also advised that prolonged dialysis is deterimental to his health. I would appreciate any monetary donations towards Meka's Kidney transplant surgery, as we are running out of funds even for the weekly dialysis and house keep. My husband is the sole bread winner of the family and I am a stay-at-home mom. I will like to have him around longer for me and most importantly, for our little son".
P.s. For those in Nigeria who need an account to pay into, here are the details:
