Elderly woman stable, guardians still missing
Noelina Medor, as she was discovered
Following the discovery of Noelina Medor in a house at Craig, East Bank Demerara, the woman’s son, Sylvester Medor, has made contact with the girl who used to care for her and who provided the information that led to the discovery of the elderly woman.
The girl, who requested anonymity, told Kaieteur News that on the same night that the elderly woman was discovered, Sylvester Medor made telephone contact with her and had told her that he was in the hospital.
Sylvester Medor had previously explained to this newspaper that he suffers from problems with his knees, and this had resulted in his hospitalisation before. This time around, the reason for his hospitalisation was not clear.
According to the girl, Sylvester Medor requested that she make contact with his lawyer and Social Services today.
Reports have indicated that Sylvester Medor’s lawyer will make the necessary arrangements to ensure that Noelina Medor is looked after.
Reports from the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) have said that Noelina Medor is physically doing well. She is apparently fit to be discharged from the hospital, but this has not yet happened, as she has no immediate kin to take care of her.
Efforts made to contact Sylvester Medor’s lawyer proved unsuccessful.
Meanwhile, the people who were initially assigned ‘guardians’ of the elderly woman are yet to be found. The reputed wife of the man in whose care Sylvester Medor had left his mother had been held by the police at the Ruimveldt Police Station overnight, but had been subsequently released.
She claimed that she and her reputed husband had broken up some time before, and that she had no idea where her reputed husband was.
However, sources have said that they saw the couple eating together “like lovers” at the Craig house just last week.
Kaieteur News has since learnt that the man frequents Mahdia, and may be there at this time.
