Hello nairalanders, I really need your help on this question about life. I went out with friends last night and you know the usual flexing things. After taking 4 bottles each, we entered into arguments. I then asked a questions, " if you have 60 million Naira and you were about to invest with it and then your mum calls and says JOHN, please come to the hospital now because your DAD is sick. Your DAD is about 80yrs OLD and the doctor says your DAD needs an operation to save is life and the operation would cost 60 million Naira. You go to the ward to see lying down helplessly. He then said, MY SON, PLEASE SAVE ME, I don't want to die". A friend said he would never drop the money because this is life and he needs the money to start up his life. I then asked him if the man was truly the father. He said he doesn't have a good relationship with the man. Please I need your help on this issue |

Pay half with and if the operation is successful, you can think of paying the rest, but write agreement with the management of the Hospital. Delicate situation but life is better than money. |

Miracles happen in unexpected places. Save the dad and life would produce for you more than what you require, Karma isnt always a bi.tch. |

I love my dad to the moon and back but let's be realistic here. I'll drop half of the money, and if the operation is successful I'll pay the rest. |

If the said dad deserve it, i'll drop the money. If he doesn't deserve it, like he wasn't a caring one, abeg, he's 80 years old, he has enjoyed his life a bit and therefore i will drop half and use the remaining half to set my life on track, afterall he wasn't there for us. This case is typical of reaping whatever anyone sows. It isn't wickedness, it's about calculation. |

The man is already 80 years old duhhh This isn't really about loving one's parent. You simply have to go with the practical option An 85 yr old person isn't productive as well as susceptible to all sort of health related issues so why risk all on such? 5 Likes |

mcocolok: No let confusion sucker punch you my guy.... An operation that cost that much will almost certainly require outpatient expense which may also run into millions What's the success rate of the particular procedure considering the fact that older people are more likely to suffer more complications when they undergo surgical procedures Consider the amount of time spent saving the 60M Might be better for the condition to be managed under palliative care since we're almost certain that the parent can't possibly spend another 85 years on earth Above all, why risk everything for something that isn't guaranteed? 1 Like |

Lol rofemiguwa: For my own dad I will spend the money shopping instead!!! I'll take him to MFM for deliverance He must have been possessed by the devil for him to need cool 60 mills for an operation  |
| Re: Need Your Help by kweenkong(f): 9:02am On Sep 24, 2014 |
A loving and responsible dad or parent will advice you to forget the operation and start up your life . For me realistically i will use the money for myself and younger ones. What if after the operation he develops common cold and dies barely a month after . I trust my father to tell me to use the money for myself with a promise thati help my younger ones . shikena 1 Like |

Hmmmm. I will give part payment before the operation and after a successful operation, I complete it. I will be feeling guilty anytime I remember I would have saved my father's life if I had given the money demanded for his medical attention. I don't know how many times he took me to the hospital while I was may be 1-3 months because of sickness. He would have said let her die after all, I will have other ones, let me invest the money for them but no, he spent may be his last to have and see me live. How will I be enjoying and my father is in the world beyond? At least, let it be I tried saving him with my possible best but at last he died. I will have a peace of mind, him on the other hand will know I tried. If at the end he die, he will leave me with his blessing. |

A loving dad will advise his son to keep/invest the money. Shooor, the papa stingy o. Which kind life he won enjoy again? He should be happy he is joining his ancestors at 80. And he should also be happy that, his son/family has something to live on to, after his demise.  2 Likes |
