CELLULAR MONEY: IS IT ALWAYS ABOUT THE MONEY?

It is an exciting task to describe money in terms that the medic understands perfectly. Thus, I’d like to correlate the term money with the term cells
The beautiful thing about both of them is that they are both units.
A cell is the basic unit of life while money is also the basic source of life on earth. In financial institutions, in fact, money can be described as life. This means both the cells and money are units which could comprise a large pile of something relatively valuable and thus, are of utmost value.
Why would I be describing cells as money? Well, it is very hard as humans, for us to learn if we cannot link our consequences to our actions. That is why in simple terms, money and cells are being correlated.
Let us start with the description of actions and consequences. Are there any causative agents and consequences for having too many cells in for instance, the blood? Yes, there are and as a matter of fact, I just described LEUKEMIA!
However, someone might ask, what are the consequences of having too much money besides the problem of how to spend it? The bottomline is, supply lessens demand and as well, value. Having/seeking too much money without knowledge of its appropriate usage could warp our value for money as well as life.
Let us take a look at how cancer of the blood resulting from too many blood cells (either from lymphoid or myeloid cell origin) could cause warped value for blood cells. The body responds to leukemia by filtering out these too many cells, thus destroying cells which would have been valuable if it was in adequate proportions.
A basic question to all of us is: Do we value life above money?
                                                   Do we value our normal cells above proliferating cancer cells?
If we really do, we’d find reasons to preserve that which we value so as not to become warped beings.

ITS NOT REALLY ABOUT THE UNIT OF EXCHANGE (MONEY), ITS ABOUT THE VALUE INHERENT IN THEM.

 EPISODE 3 ‘Oya sorry now, we’re almost there.’ Felix kept saying as he partially carried his dear friend.  She wouldn’t hear the last of this episode once it was over, that much he knew! ‘Awww…you don’t know how painful awww… this is’ ‘Sorry, sorry’ ; he kept saying So they eventually got to the ER and after pulling out her card, used ‘medical student connection’ to see the resident that was on call in Internal Medicine unit. ‘Hello dear’ , Dr. Brown said, looking keenly at the girl that was almost doubled over in pain ‘I think you should lie down on that couch’ ‘What exactly is the problem?’ ‘She just started complaining about her abdomen about half an hour ago’ ‘Oh’. ‘Can you point to where exactly the pain started?’ he asked ‘Here’ . Linda pointed to the area around her umbilicus. ‘Have you had any episode of vomiting?’ ‘No sir’ Felix answered spontaneously. ‘You must be her boyfriend, right?’ Dr.Brown asked, with a mischievious grin ...

EPISODE 5 ‘So, really, whose patient is she?’ Doctor Afuarida asked with impatience written all over his face Bola indicated, her body language reeking of timidity, ‘Sir, she was supposed to be my patient, but I haven’t been able to clerk her’ ‘Oh, really? She was supposed to be?’ ‘Do you even have any other patient on the ward?’ ‘Ehm…no sir. But my other patient has just been discharged’ ‘Please, leave my ward round. You are obviously unprepared to truly learn the art of medicine.’ She knew better than to plead and therefore, walked out with the little dignity she still had left. He continued lecturing the rest of the students ‘You know, whatever you do now will speak later in life and especially in your medical career. If you want to be a good doctor, it definitely begins from now- taking responsibility’ Dr.Amao, please give me a summary on this patient ’22 year old female, had appendectomy done. 1 st day post-op. Mild pain at op-site. Currently on IV Met...

CHRONICLES OF A NIGERIAN PHYSIOTHERAPIST by 'Bola Abioye

EPISODE FIVE ‘Mum, who called you this time again?’ I finally asked. ‘Oh… Charles, that’s what matters to you now right. What matters to you is if it’s Prophet Jabesh or Prophet Judas that called me?’ Then I burst into laughter. I can’t help but wonder why these prophets must bear names as Judas, Jabesh…if you know, you know. Then she changed it for me straight up. ‘Charles, why exactly are you laughing? You know I get scared anytime you get close to that girl and you know that I am at the risk of having stroke with the way my blood pressure rises in little situations.’ There she goes again. My mum gets little information on health precautions and that’s the end. We hear nothing else save what she has learnt in the house for about at least a month. She subscribes to all sorts of health tips on her network and then tries to confirm her newly found information from me. She has several facts on why eating eba, using an onion bulb that has been cut once and use...
