[Nigeria Health Watch] It can be quite devastating when your doctor tells you that the specialist care you urgently need is not available in Nigeria. I have been there before, so I know what it feels like. First you count the cost of treatment -- including travel -- converting naira into dollars, dirham, pounds, or euro. Then you worry about the emotional and economic cost on your family. But thankful that you have a chance at life, you do what you must to ensure that your health is restored.
