Editor,What a heart-touching story. Even though she’ll never be the same person again, but I’m very glad that Jeannette Atete is still alive.I read this story and I felt really sorry for the young woman, then one question that I am still grappling with is this: How many people die or cheat death to become disabled just like Atete simply because they can’t afford proper medical care (even when available in the country and at a government hospital)?Surely if Atete had had the means to go to King Faisal Hospital at the time the accident happened, she would be a different person. I am not saying that KFH should offer free medical care to patients who cannot afford the bill, what I mean is that "life is priceless” and should be treated as such.Once life has been saved, then the bill will be paid either by the individual or their family/friends. In fact, I think this is where funds such as "Caisse Sociale (SSFR)” should come in handy.Once again, I’m deeply sorry for what you went through dear Atete, and thanks for sharing the story.Albert Kamanzi, Aberdeen, ScotlandReaction to the story, "When it rained, it poured for Jeannette Atete”, (Sunday Times, June 9)
