My name is Maryjane and the woman in the picture is Okolo Beatrice, my mother.

In August, my mom started having constant headaches. She went to the hospital, and was attended to by a doctor, but the headache persisted.

At a point, she started having loss of memory and disorientation.

We were asked to go to the Neuropsychiatric hospital to ask for a Neurologist.

She went, but did not see a Neurologist on seat, but met with another doctor there.

She was given some medications and asked to come back in a month. She returned to the hospital on the 29th of September with the same complaints. She was given medications again and was sent back home.

At a point I was no longer comfortable with the complaints.

I assumed it was a result of stress. So on the 1st of October, I went to my parents house, picked her up and went straight to the lab, where blood work as suggested by a doctor was carried out. From the lab, I took her to my house. My plan was for her to rest well.

The results of the test came back on the 4th of October, and the outcome prompted me to start looking for a Neurologist. I started making calls. Fortunately, we got a number and the following day which was the 5th of October, I took her to the doctor in Onitsha.
