Good day all I'm Madelain smit
I came and ask for hulp with my mother in law Loretta coetzee. In 2019 my mother in law started to be sick and we didn't know what was wrong with her,so we took her to the doctor to see what is going on. When we arrived at the doctor he diagnosis her with esophagus that was torn from her stomach. So we took her to Letaba hospital in tzaneen and when we arrived there she was stated to vomiting blood they said that they couldn't help her there so we go to a private doctor where they help her to stop the blood and swallowing in her throat and give her treatment. In 2020 my mother in law started to get a setback so we took her to another private doctor in tzaneen for a 3rd opinion where they said there's nothing wrong. So did my father-in-law loose his work so we didn't have any financial to take her back to the private doctor's. So we was referring to Maputa-Malatji hospital in phalaborwa limpopo and my mother in law was very bad dehydrated,so they put her on drips and hold her there for a few days after that they discharge her and send her home with medication that didn't work. In 2021 we moved from phalaborwa to hartebeespoot where we also tried to get help for her then she went to Brits hospital where sy was lying there for week's but there is no doctor's there is only students she was also on drips to feed her but they also can't help her. In 2021  May month we moved to jakopsdal in the free state for the reason of a better work opportunity so we took her to the clinic in jakopsdal so the clinic referred her to the state hospital in jagersfontein where they saw my mother in law esophagus is very close and so small of the back of a needle she was in the hospital for a week and she had a physio dietician that was looking after her so she can see if she maybe can help her we thought  we gonna loose her because she couldn't drink or eat. The 22nd November 2023 we went to Bloemfontein to the universitas state hospital where the doctor take her in to theater where they was 9 hours busy to open her esophagus with out any anesthesia because she was under wait we had to go back 6 times to the hospital to open her esophagus but still Gooden find the problem of the esophagus. In 30 October 3023    she went for a scan where they saw she had 2 construction and a tumor in her throat so we went back on the 4th of December so they can open it again and on February 2024 they told us that they couldn't open it again because it is too thin. So they book her for a tub but the tub still doesn't work she can now not even drink water at this time. From the wait of 80kg she is now 39kg. We all asked if you can maybe help us just to get her by us in phalaborwa limpopo and to get her by a private hospital so she can get help and can drink and eat normally again......
