The League of Old Isu Professionals

On a warm December morning in 2023, Mrs. Amadi, a 72-year-old grandmother from the small village of Umuezeala, rose with a sense of both anticipation and trepidation. For years, she had suffered from a persistent pain in her lower abdomen, a discomfort that worsened over time but remained untreated due to her inability to afford medical care. Her days, once filled with the vibrant energy of caring for her grandchildren and tending to her small farm, had become a battle against pain and fatigue.

When she heard that the League of Old Isu Professionals was organizing a free medical mission in her community, a flicker of hope ignited in her heart. Could this be the answer to her prayers? Could she finally find relief from the ailment that had plagued her for so long? With a mixture of hope and anxiety, she made her way to Isu High School, where the medical mission was being held.

Upon arrival, she was greeted by a team of compassionate healthcare professionals who treated her with dignity and care. After a thorough examination, it was determined that Mrs. Amadi needed surgery for a hernia, a condition that had gone undiagnosed for years. Thanks to the medical mission, she received the surgery she so desperately needed—completely free of charge. As she recovered, the gratitude she felt was overwhelming; she had been given a new lease on life, a chance to return to the activities she loved and the family who depended on her.
