Dear diary,

IMG_20250212_114158_340.jpg

I woke up today very early as usual, I took my bath brushed my teeth immediately after our morning devotion.
Today I couldn't go to work early in the morning because I scheduled today to take my brother who is also a steemian by the user name @samuelernest on steemit to a specialist hospital in side town.
He had a dislocation on his right leg during a football game (match) ending last year in the month of December 2024.

He has been treating the fracture locally using traditional experts which really worked, though he can walk but the challenge that emerges here was the fact that the whole treatment was based on what we call "rule of thumb".

After the incident there was no ex-ray that was carried to get the accurate impact of the injury, and so therefore effective treatment was not in place.

The traditional experts was focusing on treating his ankle which had a twist and was out of joint not knowing that the incident also affected his fibula bone in the right leg. Because we it wasn't discovered it after about a month when some tissues had already covered the bone which now required a necessary surgery.

I plug the electric heater in other to warm our bathing water since there was light. When our bathing water was ready I turned it inside two different bathing buckets, one for me and while the other one for my brother; I first took the two buckets containing the hot water to the bathrooms and returned to warm another bathing water for both my wife and baby boy with the use of electric heater too before I entered the bathroom and showered.

By the time I was done bathing my brother was already done too, I dressed up and ate breakfast before leaving to the Specialist Hospital. We used my bike for mobility, on our way I branched at a fuel station as you can see in the picture below, where I bought fuel to augment the one in the tank.

Afterward, we continued our movement to the hospital which took us another 35 minutes from the fuel station to the hospital. Reaching the hospital, we were directed by the securities to where we parked our bike. The security at the park registered the bike, collect my contact address and issued me a pass which is to served as evidence to prove that I am the real owner of the bike upon return.

From the park since that is our first time entering the hospital for this kind of occasion, we don't know wether to go left or right considering the hospital is very big and busy.

We approached a woman whom I presumed to be a security staff by the way she dressed wearing a complete security outfit up and down, we made the purpose of our coming known to her and politely seek for her guidance.

She directed us to the records desk where we also explained the purpose of our coming, having had why we came they responded that we were already late and can not booked an appointment with the doctor for consultation, I had to check my time and I discovered it was some minutes to 11pm.
They advised that we have to go back home to returned tomorrow as early as 6:30am for early booking.

I wasn't comfortable with that due to my nature of work but I was left with no option than to comply with the arrangement seeing that there are a lot of people already in the hall as you can see in the picture below and nothing can be done to remedy the situation.

We returned back to the park to carry our bike, we were asked to pay some amount before we could obtain permit to move the bike out of the hospital which we paid and left.

On our way back home, I took advantage of the journey to enter Central Market to a shop I booked for curtains to meet the shop owner for some important discussions.

Afterward, from there we returned back to the Church. Reaching the Church I went upstairs to my office and started my usual office routines as it is unique for Wednesdays. I planned our evening Midweek program for the week. For today's program I assigned one of the Pastors to teach today as you can see in the picture below.

The program was very Impactful with testimonies to show, to God alone be the glory as He is the doer and not man.

After the service we left the Church to returned home using my bike which made the movement very easy.
Arriving home I took a shower and also ate my dinner as you can see in the picture below (spaghetti cooked by my lovely wife), I also had a little good time with my family before I retired to bed.
