I wish to inform you that I was recently diagnosed with 5th stage renal failure also known as end stage renal disease (kidney failure) occasioned by unmitigated high blood pressure at Lagoon hospital, Bourdillion street, Ikoyi, Lagos. It was recommended that my only chance to stay alive is that I must undergo haemodialysis twice a week until I am able to raise the sum of N25,000,000.00 (25 millon Naira) for kidney transplant.
“On my own I have spent about N3.5 million for the one week I spent at the aforementioned hospital. The cost of keeping alive is way beyond my means right now. I therefore seek your help dear brothers and sisters to surmount this terrible illness.
