I really don’t know when they are going to do the PM,” the dead woman’s partner, Nathaniel Leandrew said.He opined that the constant delays in the PM could be “a spiteful move” by medical personnel at the Bartica Hospital, since according to Leandrew,Jacob Trouba Team North America Jersey, the doctor accused of performing the botched abortion on his partner, had threatened him.“He (the doctor) tell me that if I go to the newspaper, no one from the Bartica hospital will look at me and my family,Joakim Nordstrom Jersey,” the man claimed.According to Leandrew,Andrew Shaw Jersey, when he tried to find out from workers at the hospital, what is causing the constant delays, no one from the health institution was willing to assist him.Athina Kennedy,Paul Stastny Jersey, of 44 Second Avenue, Bartica, died at the Bartica Hospital around 02:00 hrs two Wednesdays ago, despite undergoing surgery at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) to repair an alleged perforated uterus.The injuries were reportedly sustained during an abortion which was reportedly done last September at a cost of $8000, allegedly at the clinic of the doctor in question.The young mother was three months pregnant when she had the pregnancy terminated.Kaieteur News was told that one week after the woman had the abortion done, her health started to deteriorate.Her partner explained that the woman was slightly paralyzed. “She couldn’t walk or move around too much, so I took her to the Bartica Hospital and the doctor said that it was Chikungunya and he gave her an injection.”Leandrew said that the third time he took his partner to the hospital, she was admitted and subsequently transferred to the GPHC where she was hospitalized for seven weeks.“They (doctors at GPHC) said that her uterus was damaged because of an abortion and they had to fix it. At first,Mikael Granlund Jersey, she went in the ward and then they transferred her to the ICU (Intensive Care Unit). She was unresponsive and was on a machine,” Leandrew said.He added, “I went to the doctor who did the abortion on her and tell him that he has to assist us financially, or I will report him to the newspaper. He gave me $20,000 and said that’s all he can give. He said even if I go to the papers, nothing will happen to him,Neal Broten Jersey, and that me and my family will feel shame.”On November 1,ED Belfour Jersey, last, Athina Kennedy was discharged from the GPHC after her condition improved, but was eventually rushed to the Bartica Hospital after her condition deteriorated again.
