10AM SUNDAY MORNING WAS THE LAST TIME I SAW HIM BREATHE NORMALLY

Aishah here. I didn't want to post but word has spread very fast and people are pestering my sisters and I.

Dad is in hospital in ICU from a Tiger snake bite. His pinning stick broke on catching the Snake so it got immediate access to his hand. The venom went straight his his circulation system from a deep bite and started to have neurological effects immediately. I watched him lose conciousness very fast in front of my eyes. Craig and I both thought we watched him die

Immediate first aid and hospital, There, I saw dad stop breathing multiple times. Last year he had a close scare with the brown but wasnt bitten. In 14 years, This is the 1st proper BITE dad has had:

- His pupils are dilated to 9mm.
- He couldnt't talk, breathe properly and the hospital asked me to discuss him possibly go on ventilation.
- 2 doses of antivenom.
- No taste, Numb hands, Eyes closed and Can't see.
- no blood clotting and started haemorrhaging severely.
- multi organ failure.
- incredibly drowsy and weak.
- muscle damage and nerve damage.
- heart irregularities
- he needs antibiotics for follow up infections.


My sisters and I are really upset. Pls stop ing us to be nosy pretending to care just for gossip. You have all the info you need now so pls leave us alone as two of the sisters are under 18 and Ellie especially is very upset.
For now Craig is catching snakes. If you see one call me 0491120668 and I'll coordinate

For anyone wanting to post nasty things, I remind you dad is VERY strong. Dad has single-handedly raised us girls for 12 years now. This rare bite direct to the blood would have killed most but not dad. He WILL recover and ill. Show him everything written.

I would not have posted this except news has got out so I ask to respect our privacy in this very difficult time as dad has been our single source of strength for most of our lives.

Snakes are extremely dangerous and they exhibit unpredictable behavior as well.

When the hunter successfully becomes the hunted.

May this become the case for our thieving politicians soon.

Why do these people love to play with their lives. There is a reason why they are wild animals, but they always want to domesticate these animals.

Things you do when you have a functional healthcare system.

Reason why I love my people. This can never happen in my dear country. Infact it's the snake that will have multiple organ failure not the man😂

By now a thread would have been opened on nairaland showing the snake on fire waiting to be gushed down with a bottle of trophy beer.

He didn't mess with the snake, his kind are actually very important to the people in a society as Australia where snakes and other dangerous animals invade people's homes uninvited especially at odd hours.

He's lucky he's not in a banana republic like Nigeria. He would have been long dead cos no adequate health facilities anywhere in Nigeria
No anti venom in any hospital in Nigeria.
