To Emmanuel's surprise, his wife's condition physically worsened by the time he returned from to the hospital the next morning to see her before the surgery.
"When I returned the next morning, my wife had taken a turn for the worst. She was sweating profusely and was in severe pain. The change was really dramatic," the new widower says.
At that point, Emma's wife who is now late, indicated to her husband that the doctor had not yet seen her that morning but she had been attended to by a previous medical officer.
