Dennis, the fiancé of late Justina Ejelonu, the 29-year old
nurse who lost her life to Ebola Virus Disease after coming in contact with
Liberian Ebola carrier, Patrick Sawyer shared a heartwarming story of how he
refused to abandon his fiancé, Justina despite her being diagnosed with the
deadly Ebola Virus Disease.
According to Denis’ revelation, Justina lost a two-month
pregnancy, vomited severally on him while she collapsed and had to be carried
to the hospital by him…hmmm...
Denis further revealed that after Justina was admitted at the Ebola Isolation center, he hung around the hospital, occasionally going into the Ebola ward to cater for her as nurses and doctors abandoned the dying nurse to her fate at the Ebola treatment center.
Fourteen days after Justina passed on, Dennis began to show symptoms of Ebola Virus Disease- had high temperature, and he was never afraid, he remained calm and even turned himself in to the treatment center for thorough medical observation.
An initial test was carried out on him, which showed symptoms suggestive of Ebola, and led the center to quarantine him, and a second test confirmed that he was positive, so he got admitted for treatment but after a third test was carried out, Dennis became positive and got discharged some hours ago.
Dennis left the Ebola Isolation center in good health according doctors who spoke anonymously to Saharareporters.
You could recall that late nurse Justina Ejelonu was a part
of late Dr. Adadevoh’s team. Both Justina Ejelonu and Dr. Adadevoh have all
passed away to glory as a result of Ebola Virus Disease they contracted from
Patrick Sawyer, the Liberian Ebola carrier who brought Ebola Virus into
Nigeria. May their innocent souls find peace in the Lord, amen.
