Sudden death is really not as sudden as we make it seem. A lot of times, it rears its head, gives its victims signs, probes them, and tries to cajole them for the path of the living, but they never quite listen. Thats’s how they become its victims. My father is a medical doctor, and there are two complaints he always has about his patients (apart from their refusal to pay their bill on time or pay at all).
1. They refuse to take their medications.
2. They refuse to come in for a check-up when they are not feeling like themselves.
Both are dangerous, clearly, but focusing on the second part of this complaint, many have died from illnesses that could have been fixed by a short doctor’s visit. And at the end, the result is blamed on an alleged witch in the village.
Mo and guests discussing sudden death |
Mo and a guest discussing sudden death |
In A Culture Worth Dying For, Mo attempts to dispute the notion of sudden death, and she discusses the importance of regular medical checkups and how it is often taken for granted. Mo also speaks to the family of Chantel Johnson, who was discovered to have leukemia during routine antenatal tests and died within a year of the diagnosis.
If you can’t remember when your last medical check up was, or you’ve never had one, tune in to find out everything you need to know about healthy, prolonged living.
