A man had an accident. He had head injuries and lost consciousness

He was taken to the hospital

The Neurosurgeon treated him, and he regained full consciousness and control of his body.

He jumped fence and escaped 🙃.

The man who absconded with the bills is an OFFICER of the Nigerian Army

Story Continues👇 It is not enough that he was given specialist care, and regained full health, he absconded and refused to pay his bills

After intervention and “calls” were made, he paid some and was let to go based on “recognition”

He got home, called his friends and they went to kidnap the Neurosurgeon.

All of this happened recently in Anambra state

I watched a TedTalk by Tim Urban on Procrastination - bit.ly/2oJCg67 and it succinctly illustrated a battle I had fought for a long time.

I noted some similarities between his points and mine, hence the thread.

RT! His Talk was fun and brilliantly described what goes on in the mind of a procrastinator, and pointed out a few pitfalls to that approach.

I found it enlightening and an easier way to illustrate the solution i have devised to curb procrastination

I hope it helps someone. 🙂

Recieved this on WhatsApp, I think it is worth a read.

It was a cold and rainy morning sometime in April, when one of the OPD nurses on duty knocked on the consulting room.

*Nurse KC:* Doc, are you free? There’s a new patient that will like to see you. *Me:* Okay, Please send her in.

*Me:* Good morning Ma’am, how may I help you?

*Patient:* Good morning Doc, I am about 3 months pregnant but still seeing my menses monthly and I am worried.

Dear Young Professionals, read this.

Peter graduated to be the best and finest surgeon in the world. At age 30, he became married. The joy of marrying a successful young person attracted, his wife, to him.

After the Honeymoon, he hardly spent some quality time with his wife. Their relationship began to go sour.
Not that Peter is flirting around with other ladies.
Not that he now had a bad friend.

But, at his work place, he was seen as TOO IMPORTANT.

Every patients craved him. The Nurses wanted him to handle the surgeries at hand.

“So you can’t take a bullet for me?”

Orin teased as the blood started flowing into the bag. “Its small needle you are complaining about”.

John smiled. He would actually take a bullet for her. He wondered if she realised that was how much he loved her. “How long would it take?” He Inquired.

“10 to 15 minutes”.

That wasn't so bad, he always imagined the process to take at least an hour.
All in all he had been in the hospital less than 30 minutes.
