Ocean Academy Accident Victim Still in Critical Condition
With the CT scan at KHMH temporarily out of service, the Ocean Academy accident victims had to turn to private hospitals in Belize City. Eighteen-year-old Alexander Bainton has already had five CT scans at a private facility. He was supposed to have another scan today, but his condition is so critical that it had to be postponed. His mother told News Five that moving him to the private hospital would mean disconnecting him from the machine that’s keeping him alive. She went live on Facebook today to share an update.
Voice of: Nikita Marin, Mother of Accident Victim
“Light a candle for Alex and pray for him. Alexander was scheduled to do a CT scan yesterday. But they postponed it. Alexander’s pressure is all about the place. He is doing really bad, and they don’t want to risk moving Alexander because it could cause more complications. It could cause a stroke or a vein to burst and more problems. So they do not want to be moving him right now. Alexander was scheduled for his CT scan today, unfortunately this morning I went in again and they postponed Alexander CT scan again. He is still not doing well. He is not in a medical coma. He is in a coma because his body has him there in a coma. As a mother it is hard. So they also cancelled Alexander CT scan for today. They told me I can go back for my money. But I don’t care about that money. It can stay right there, because I know that tomorrow my baby will get up and he will be able to take that CT scan.”
