1. My wife had been worried. It was 4 months after we told ourselves "I DO" and families, friends and well wishers celebrated with us on that Tuesday morning, 16/4/19 at the Marriage Registry Magajin Gari, Kaduna. 
2. I told her she is primary to me, every other thing is secondary so there is no need for her to be pressured. Early September, she begin to notice some changes in her body system then reached out for a PT strip. It turned +ive. Joy all over her. We agreed for Anti-natal by ...
...October ending, that will be when we will be very sure.
3. Common pregnancy symptoms became glaring to me, the early morning sickness and co. Abdominal pain sets in. I ignored thinking it's normal. I even ban her from taking even ordinary Paracetamol. She kept enduring the pains and managing to go to work every morning.
4. She even threatened not to sit for the TRCN qualifying exams she registered for as she woke up one Saturday morning with pain and high temperature. I had to pamper and encouraged her to manage and sit for the test once and for all.
5. At some point, she couldn't sleep at night. I now became worried but still relaxed with one of my buttocks, still feeling it's normal. On the 15/10/19, it was severe pain throughout the night / early hours of 16th. Told her to manage to report to work, then I called my....
....office to notify them, then pick her up from her work place straight to a Teaching hospital and arrived there 08:15am.
6. Due to sympathy from those with mild health conditions, she was allowed to see the Doctor before her turn after additional 6 hrs of continuous torture with abdominal pain. The female Doctor couldn't prescribe anything, immediately recommended a #Scan after she managed to.....
.....describe how she was feeling.
7. Scan result came out after another 3 hrs as it took the Director himself to intervene in the scan process. I don't know how to read medical prescriptions even as I open the envelope and ran my eye through the result sheet as if I understood the content.
8. Immediately the doctor read through as I handed her the envelope, she said this is an emergency, it's an #EctopicPregnancy, it's life threatening. Ectopic Pregnancy is when the foetus is developing in the fallopian tube instead of the uterus/womb. After this explanation,..
...She gave me a note to the labour room. She could not be admitted there due to lack of bed space, then a referral note attached to the scan result, to a state's hospital was drafted.
9. Got there, the young male Doctor also told me it's an emergency and place her on admission immediately after going through the referral note. He also ask her to do another scan. She did and we gave him the result. This second scan result suggested "Emergency Laparatomy".
10. The Doctor said, my wife had to undergo a surgery so as to remove the foetus immediately before it ruptures the fallopian tube.
On the 18/10/19, at about 11:40am, was a successful surgery. The Doctor later confided in me that the fallopian tube in question has been removed,..
On the 18/10/19, at about 11:40am, was a successful surgery. The Doctor later confided in me that the fallopian tube in question has been removed,..
...and that's the only option. He also advised I should allow her heal properly that we can still have as many children as we want with the one fallopian tube left. My wife is fine and healing well and fast.
11. On my way to the office this morning, she called me that she had passed the TRCN Qualifying Exams.
