Dialysis patient still needs help
KIMBIA, BERBICE RIVER – “We have to pay $80,000 weekly for two dialysis sessions for my daughter and transportation. How can I afford something like that? I am just a poor peanut and red-bean farmer.”
Frank Gladstone of Kimbia, Berbice River makes yet another appeal for his only daughter to have a kidney transplant.

Persons interested in helping the cause can deposit their contribution at the Bank of Nova Scotia, account number 36465, or 741-065-7 at the Republic Bank.
The Gladstone family can be contacted on telephone numbers 689-0908 or 666-6653. Rockel Gladstone was diagnosed with renal failure last year after experiencing ill health since 2005. An initial assessment suggests that her father could be a possible donor but more tests must be carried out before that could be definite.
“We need money to do the kidney transplant. She is my only daughter and I would do anything to save her life. She is still very young, the third of five children. When she does not receive the dialysis she gets delirious. On any given day she can only use about 20 ounces of fluid whether it is tea, water or whatever.”
