Emergency Medical Fund For Dr. David Abdulai

By -

Dr. David Abdulai is an amazing doctor who has dedicated his life to serving the poor. He runs 2 free health clinics in the Northern Region and serves a variety of populations including the mentally ill, HIV positive, homeless, etc. He is the only survivor of 11 children (all of whom died from poverty related illnesses) and had the opportunity to be educated; eventually finishing medical school with the assistance of the Catholic Church. 


Dr. David Abdulai won the 2012 Martin Luther King Jr. Award for Peace and Social Justice,
 
 
Dr. David Abdulai, is also a winner of Airtel’s flagship corporate social responsibility initiative “Touching Lives” and other awards and recognitions world wide. 

 Although he initially worked in government hospitals, he always realized the great need to return home to Tamale and provide medical assistance to the poor. He eventually returned, building 2 clinics and has seen thousands of patients since the 90’s. He furthermore established a “Meals on Wheels" program that has fed up to 100-150 people per day for over 20 years. All of this has been done through donations and he has never taken a salary for any of his outreach efforts.



Unfortunately, this past May he was diagnosed with stage-4 thyroid cancer which is quite aggressive and spreading as each day goes by. He is in dire need of radiation therapy, which is not offered in Tamale or many other parts of the country. This type of therapy could save his life and, given the many lives he has saved, family, friends and sympathizers  are raising money for his medical treatment and the continued operation of his clinics. All money raised on will be chiefly used for his medical condition.

Kindly send all donations to:
- MTN Mobile Money Number (Ghana) - 055-555-3517
- Name - "Heeden Foundation"
- Reference Code ( Yourname + any 3-digit code)
Whoever is  interested in volunteering with or supporting Dr. Abdulai’s work to contact info@shekinah-clinic.com.

Professor Hans-Heinrich Reckeweg on PORK Biological Therapy

In World War II, soldiers in North Africa were taken ill in ever increasing numbers. They were suffering from abscesses of the lower part of the leg called “tropical ulcers”. These ulcerations left the soldiers unfit to fight and necessitated lengthy hospital confinement, often requiring their removal to more temperate climates. Every possible form of treatment as well as chemical therapy was exhausted without positive results. It was then suggested that these leg ulcers could possibly be connected with the soldiers’ eating habits, as the natives showed no signs of this disease. Rations to the soldiers were then based on a diet free from pork, much like that eaten by the Islamic population. This resulted in the immediate relief of the leg ulcer syndrome. During the lean years of the war and especially those after the war, the health of the population was, practically speaking, good. Few people could
