QUARANTINE

-

The covid-19 pandemic is hitting hard on different economies of the world and also on the different businesses, it has led to lifestyle modifications, and as such quarantine of workers is mandated before they resume work with others.

I began my quarantine yesterday, before I left I started the necessary preparations, I bought what I will need during my stay, I had in mind that I wanted to make the best  use of my stay. My family offered prayers and wished me well, mum also gave her advice.


When I arrived the hotel  venue , my temperature was checked and  I was offered hand sanitizers which I applied on my palms, I then proceeded to the receptionist who ask for my identity card and gave me a form to fill, I was given the procedures for isolation for me to read and comply. I was also offered internet access which made me happy, because for me , I don subscribe tire.

I went to my room to settle down, I was quite impressed. I saw this as a place to relax and gain new insights in life. I hope not to abuse this privilege.  Good enough, there was a zoom meeting which was organized by Young Pharmacist’s Group, which I joined and got useful tips.

You see, life should be seen with an optimistic mind-set, I have seen this avenue for me to grow and get enriched. Likewise, you also should see yours as an opportunity to make the best out of life.

This is a new month and the sixth in the year 2020, how about your goals? Are you making plans to achieve them or are you planning to quit? Well, just know that hard times comes and goes, but  for a determined mind, success is not far away.

We will win together, yes we can and will. Wishing you the very best in life.

LIFE IS A JOURNEY

Life is in phases, starting from the childhood stage, the adolescence stage, the youth stage and finally the adult stage. There is a common Igbo adage which says: ‘ Mgbe onye ji tete ura bu ututu ya.’ When translated to English language it says: ‘whenever one wakes up, that is his morning.’ Your beginning starts whenever you are ready; it is a personal race not a competition.   Life should be cherished and lived to the fullest; in the spirit of love, hope and faith. There are different perspectives to life. It encompasses all   classes of men in life: the poor and the rich, the educated and non-educated, those in trials and tribulations and those having a smooth journey. We look at life in reality and in truth, it hopes to reveal facts; and helps us to appreciate the beauty of life and get along on the right track while travelling through the journey of life. We can ponder on the bitter truths in life and on issues to aid our cognitive abilities to explore these fa...

PHARMACIST'S OATH: MY REFLECTIONS.

How time flies, the good news is that you are the pilot. I wrote this three years ago on my Facebook page and decided to post it on my blog. "I picked out my Pharmacist's oath to ponder on its contents, just like the 10 commandments, there was 10 "I shall" in the oath." The second 'I shall' is very delicate and demanding and it quotes: "I shall apply the full measure of my knowledge,  skills and abilities to improving the health and well being of all those I serve and place their needs above my personal interest and considerations" You may understand better if you do night calls,  after  and vigorous day duty and your body calls  for rest, when the patient comes knocking your sleep should give way for immediate attention to the patient. Today,3rd November, 2017 will be one year since I took the oath before many witnesses  and I thank God for the journey so far... I went to the Chapel to take it before God of whom I rely to fulfill the oath ...

MY DECISIONS

Sometime last year, I paid a visit to an elderly man whose son came to the pharmacy to get him some medications. I could understand what this man would be passing through, so I decided to go see him. When I arrived at the place he directed me to, I gave him a call in order to confirm the house. When I got in, I saw the man sitting; saliva was drooling from his mouth, he also urinated there and the son went ahead to clean it up. I asked to see his medications and the bag of drugs was brought. I found out he had not been taking his medications and had also resorted to herbal drinks which were bought at exorbitant prices by the woman he lived with. You will get to understand later.🙂 Among those of his children present, none was medically inclined. The good thing was that the daughter was an undergraduate student of Food and Nutrition, so we flowed together in the dietary management of her dad; of which he was doing excellently well. The son also helped in his exercise by taking him out v...
