cousin hit by bullet?


Question:
A stray bullet hit my cousing Mo in 1991 and he barely survived the incident.The doctors at the time said that it would be too dangerous to operate as it was too close to the brain, the bullet has travelled down to the back of the skull and away from the skull. Problem is that the hospitals are unable to perform the kind of surgery my cousin needs. I am looking for relief or humanitarian organisation that would be able to help him by linking him to a hospital or clinic performing surgery on him to remove the bullet. I have contacted Children First Foundation in Australia but to no avail. My question is: where do we get help for Mo? Please if anyone can point me in the right direction, I would be extremely grateful. Thank you in advance.

Contact Mayo Medical Center in Rochester, MN. This medical facility treats all kinds of problems and are very much cutting edge. They may be albe to send you in the right direction. Mayo Clinic just guided my family to a hospital that would perform an operation on my aunt.

If you need mo help you could locate the bullet using a metal detector,a pair of tweezers and a scalpel would be required for removal.Remember to stitch the patient up after the operation or you risk serious blood loss resulting in death.
