I would like to share my story with you and at the same time, I would like to express my special thanks to Nurse Khadiga.
My child K suffers from anemia. Since birth, he has been on treatment, from time to time K needs to be admitted to the PEC due to symptoms that suddenly appear.
Recently, I was traveling outside the country and my sister took K to the Emergency Department and she was not aware of the health problems which he was suffering from. K was examined by the doctor; medicine was given to him and then the doctor decided to discharge him home.
Luckily,Khadiga was on duty that day. She noticed that K was pale and immediately she asked the doctor to order a blood test to check his hemoglobin level. The result of the hemoglobin was 4, which required K to be admitted to the hospital for blood transfusion.
I was in contact withKhadiga all the time by phone, she supported me and assured me regarding my son's condition.
K was discharged from the hospital after a while, in good condition.
