On the 12th of March 2021 on my way to work, I was attacked and robbed, in the process I was hacked by a machete on my left arm, I was bleeding profusely and if not for the effort of my employer the worst could have happened. I had to undergo a 5 hour procedure to repair the damage done as i had 2 nerves and 5 tendons severed, of main concern was the radial nerve which was cut through, after surgery and later discharge i left the hospital with no feeling whatsoever in my arm and at best slight twitches in one or two fingers. The Surgeon said to me ” I must be honest with you, there is a 50% chance your arm will ever work again but it will take up to 9 months to know “. I believed in my heart that no matter how minimal the chance I have I would take it and with God on my side nothing is impossible, days went by there was little or no movement but I remained hopeful, the finger twitches became more pronounced but there was still a long road ahead as I was still experiencing wrist drop, I could not keep my wrist upright and neither could I control it in any kind of way, that is when i got the good fortune of hearing of an offer to assist me from Isabel Mischke who offered to help me with my hand therapy pro bono.
I conclude by appreciating all the efforts and therapy and time that Isabel has invested in getting me back to 100%, her passion for her job is like nothing iv seen, Its countless times I’ve heard her casually mention how much she loves her job. I now know for a fact that angels do exist in human form.
