My Orphan Mate

A woman was wheeled into the labour room looking tired and pale and the nurses and midwife rushes into the labour room, the nurses helpes her undress and she was naked while just a cloth was used in covering her from her breast and and her legs were held up and wide and the midwife says to her.

" Madam please push" the woman in labour tried to push but she could only tried she had no strenght to push".

The woman wheeled to the labour room had been in labour in one small hospital managed by just a single and a quack nurse due to no money, she didn't register in a better hospital because she and her husband can't even afford a three square meal not to talk of affording an hospital bill.

It was when the nurse couldn't handle the situation again that she quickly the husband that she should be taken to a nearby hospital.

She had been labouring for over 7 hours before being wheeled to the hospital, she was tired pushing out her baby before taken to the bigger hospital.

" Madam please try and push harder " the midwife says but she couldn't and the midwife removes the handgloves from her hand and dresses and washes her hand and goes to the doctor in his office to give him report while the doctor was studying online.

" Sir the woman brought in recently for child bearing is currently so weak and I don't  think she can push" midwife says to the doctor and the doctor stood up and follows the midwife into the labour room and he sees how tired and pale the woman was.

" Where is her husband? He asks the midwife.

" He is outside the word sir" the midwife replied.

"Please tell him to see me in my office and nurses please prepare the theatre" the doctor leaves the labour room and walks out of the hospital ward while the midwife goes to meet the woman husband at the reception to meet a man dressed in a faded shirt and trouser and a rubber slippers.

" Mr Akilo, the doctor would like to see you" the man stood up.

" As my wife put to bed?  he asks.

" please sir come with me, the doctor would want to meet you sir" she says and he follows her and she leads him into the doctors office.

" Sir this is Mr  Ben  Akilo " she says.

" Thanks ,you can take your leave"  he says.

"Sir , the truth is your wife is very very weak, she cannot push out the baby on her own so which means we have to operate her and if we do not start this operation very soon, we might loose both mother and child but if we have your go ahead and a deposit of atleast 40k we would save both life but if we waste too much time we might loose both life or try our best to save both lives, sir the ball is in your court" the court. 

  " please  doctor  help me to  save  my wife and my child , please ", says Ben. 

   " Mr Ben  Akilo go and try , maybe you can get money ", said the  doctor. .
