Enmore accident victims on slow road to recovery

Jul 05, 2011 News

Lucille Abrams is now in a stable condition at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC). She was the victim of last Friday’s horrific fatal accident at Enmore, East Coast Demerara. She sustained serious injuries about her body.
When Kaieteur News visited the patient yesterday at the Female Surgical Ward, Abrams was being attended to by her children, who were at her bedside trying to feed her “light food items”.
She told this newspaper that she hails from Lot 123 Enmore North, ECD, and on the day of the incident she was awaiting transportation to head into Georgetown.
“I was waiting on the left side to go to Victoria village, where buses turn around, and the vehicle (police vehicle) hit me first. I don’t know anything else after that”
This newspaper understands that the young woman suffered injuries to her head, and her neck which is now in a brace. She also sustained numerous cuts and scrapes on her right hand, burns and scrapes on her left leg and internal pain at locations such as her stomach and chest.
Breathing is painful and though her neck is not fractured the doctors will need to conduct more tests to verify the severity of damage along the rest of her body.
Further reports are that the driver of the police vehicle, 21-year-old Mark Jones who is currently in the Male Accident Ward, also sustained injuries about his head, which includes a badly bruised face, neck injuries and a broken nose.
Kaieteur News also understands that Jones’s mother has been visiting Abrams on numerous occasions at the GPHC.
Yesterday the young man’s mother visited the injured woman in the company of another young woman and the former headmistress of Queen’s College, Freidel Isaacs.
