Mother Pleads for Prayers and Answers for Son’s Medical Condition  

Just after Mother’s Day, a Belama mom is making a desperate public appeal for help. Bernadine Young says her twenty-four-year-old son, Brenton Bishop, is in urgent need of a CT scan—but she simply can’t afford it. Young shared that Brenton’s health took a sudden turn for the worse back in March. Since then, his condition has continued to decline. He now struggles to walk and suffers from frequent seizures. Despite visiting several doctors, Young says there’s been no improvement—and now, she’s out of options and out of funds. Her plea is a reminder of the tough choices many families face when medical emergencies strike without the means to pay.

 

Bernadine Young, Seeking Assistance

“Fi experience this kinda problem especially, is like a nightmare as a mother. It’s not very easy. I’m trying very hard to see weh di happen to my son, but he’s not getting any better. Because he’s couldn’t like he’s bone when he gets seizure, he couldn’t open up his hand, his mouth. I have to massage in his mouth with a wet cloth so his mouth could  open up and we can make him drink water, eat or so. And it’s very difficult for me for every time he has to wake up morning, you see yo son di shake. If not that you, you just done give him his breakfast, he’s vomiting his food. Or you give him his medicine that he need to take medication like bendaryl and autrin but then it’s not working. Right now we don’t know where they happen, so I plead to the public out there, even to anybody, even if the Mr. Ladyville Highlight. Mr. Albert, if you could please. Here is outlook on this and on this program because I need help from my son and we want to see what happened. So he need a CAT scan. My phone is 635-5318. I don’t have any WhatsApp. I’m sorry.
