WWJ’s death
my sister has noted, our father died from medical complications resulting from a car accident. He had been on safari in the rainy season, and his car became bogged. As he was attaching chains to the rear wheels the car slipped off the jack and hit him in a shoulder. He subsequently developed kidney problems. Apparently soldiers shot in the shoulder during the Crimean War sometimes developed similar symptoms. As his condition worsened he was flown to Dar es salaam for further treatment where he slowly showed signs of improvement. A specialist arrived from the UK and planned to perform an examination, presumably by the insertion of a catheter. The existence of MRI’s, ultrasounds or other technological marvels were unknown in this British outpost. The specialist was cautioned by WWJ’s physician that due to the patient’s critical condition, no anaesthetics were to be administered. The caution was ignored and the patient died. The physician subsequently reported that if he had conducted the examination he would have used the finest of catheters. The Governor’s wife was a doctor who assisted in the hospital in a voluntary capacity. She queried the nurses about the dosage and was allegedly told that it was enough to kill two men. Whether this was correct is unknown. An enquiry was mooted but the bereaved widow declined, as such an exercise would not reverse the situation. In retrospect, and with total respect for family grief, the decision was perhaps unwise, as an enquiry may have revealed evidence of malpractices or negligence that could have been used to prevent future repetitions. 211.28.26.142 (talk) 21:20, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
