So upsetting to hear all the stress and heartache that negligence has caused. God bless and continue to strengthen you🙏🏾
Honestly, so pissed off right now 😒
That country is messed up, in a civilised country they would have sued the hospital and doctors for gross negligence.
Me too I felt so bad that i first paused the video and started praying
The negligence in our healthcare system is horrible.That is how Lasuth killed my younger sister from simple appendicitis.Its heart breaking.Your mum is a super hero
This video was really informative. Love loooove your mums energy. God bless all our mums out there for being superwomen
That is the way the Lord has made it. Now is the age of enlightenment. The knowledge is everywhere now.
This was so emotional to watch
Thank you Adaeze for sharing this with us
Your mom is really a supermum
May God give us strength to pull through any challenge life throws at us🙏
Your mum is obviously a good mother. She has a nice spirit
Dear Adaeze, big thank you to you and your brave mother for sharing her experience. Your mother is one in a million. She mentioned something about your brother breaking the jinx of only son, and this what she must pray about, because the challenges of your precious brother hinges on this. Pray against the powers that are angry that a second son was born to die. I have understand, I have 2 sons, though they can communicate very well. God bless you.
Your mum so beautiful and the knowledge she is sharing is so important for every mother or family with children that have special needs
Mama is glowing and so sound. You guys have really gone through stress. But its well
This video is priceless. God bless you Ada and God bless your mother too. Thank you xx
Mummy you are a really a super mum God bless you
Thanks so much for sharing this ❤❤.
Mummy thanks for sharing
Which report do you believe better believe the report of the lord.if you believe doctors report 100 % instead of God report he may not walk
I’m here. Thank you Mummy for coming again❤️❤️
Hi I love this your topic, I am in this situation at the moment, please am interested to join the super mummy program, so I can know the kind of food required to give to my boy.
Hoping to hear from u thanks in advance sister.
your mum's cheekbones are so beautiful! It was very insightful to listen to her journey parenting your brother. May your family continue to be blessed.
Your mother is a prayer warrior and a woman of faith . God bless her for you
Mummy, I thank God for the strength and wisdom he gave you to handle this situation. It is well with your son and every member of your family. You are a strong woman
Ada,with tears in my eyes,I declare that your mum is a wonderful person. There are mothers, and there are Mothers.She is surely a super Mum.A very practical Mother, a lovely one indeed. Infact words fail me.May God bless and perfect all that concerns her, in Jesus name,Amen 🙏
Yes, autism can be properly managed when it is diagnosed early. Diet also helps. You really need a whole lot of money for that. I'm talking from family's experience. Little Boy was diagnosed with ASD when he was a year old. Before he talked, it was only prayer. They had to get a private tutor for him to teach him things ranging from basic home activities to school activities. He also had a special diet different from the family's, that is, no artificial food, not even sugar or spicy in foods. He has been on natural food till date. He will be 6yrs this year and I must say, he is always among the best in his class which is not even a special school
May God continue to strengthen you and your family ma, AMEN!
It was like I was hearing my story being told. From his being the easiest labor and delivery of all my children, to being a second son in over 3 generations of only one son, to him wandering off and going missing, to him being so incredibly handsome. The only difference is I suspected early and he is getting early intervention, ABA, occupational and speech therapy. He is presently non-verbal and this video has encouraged me further in my faith that he would speak coherently in Jesus name, Amen. Your mom is a strong beautiful woman. More blessings in Jesus name.
You have a new subscriber!!
May the Lord renew your strength.
How old is ur child?
@@BabaCustom Amen! Thank you
@@fauziyahassan5359 He is 4 years old this November
Ada i'm watching this in 2024,good enough your momma is my church member christ embassy nnewi
Watching this video, And I sobbed half way through hearing the negligence from the medics. Your mum is so heartwarming, wise, soft spoken and full of gratitude. Her experience and yours has become a source of encouragement to a lot of people.
May God almighty continually strengthen your family.
Sending you lots of love.
OMG your mum is discribing your brother as my son. I live in London with my only son and two daughters. My son is in his early twenties living with Autism. Thank you for sharing that story,i cried but happy tears because your mum mentioned things that made me a stronger mum to my handsome young man. God bless always. Beautiful Mum you have.
Thank you so much @adaeze for bringing your lovely mum to share her experience with us. I love her frankness and words of advice. Handling a child with autism is difficult even abroad however there are facilities and caregivers provided for them in their system; they have a support system so it comes of much easier than it is here in Nigeria but certainly not without challenges! Children with autism can do so many things including cooking, painting, clean up etc! They should never be hidden or excluded from everyday life it society just like mama has adviced. God bless you and your dear mum for sharing with us🥰
The apple didn’t fall far from the tree
You got a lot of Mommy’s characteristics
Two beautiful strong women of faith
Hod continue to bless you all🙏🏾😍
Yes mummy you are right. Early intervention is the most effective way to speed up your child’s development and reduce the symptoms of autism over the lifespan. I have masters in special education. All the best to you ma. God bless you
Wow! Adaeze your mum is powerful. I'm inlove with her. Very emotional video. She saw her son as a gift, she prayed and invested all her time, she stayed positive even when it was tough. God bless you mama❤
This was beautiful to watch. Your mum is a SuperMum indeed! Her strength and her beautiful smile is so encouraging! ❤
Thank you Adaeze. I really enjoyed every bit of this interview and didn't want it to end. I was excited to hear that there will be a part two. Autism is very common here in the UK. There are good schools and support for parents. In fact the government pay parents of autistic children to look after them and even provide brand new cars, respite and suitable accommodation to them as part of the support process. Your family especially your mum is an inspiration to have taken care of this child in a Nigeria setting where these supports are not available. May God reward all ur efforts 👏👏👏
I have an autistic granddaughter. I would like to know about the diet you talked about .
Nnewi has the best doctors till date IMO. I know Dr Ulasi, he's a family friend. He is a very good paediatrician although he's older now. There are a lot of good doctors in Eastern Nigeria.
This is a very emotional interview. Your mom is a strong woman
I'm so impressed that Mummy didn't hide her boy because of his special needs. She really is a "super mum".
Absolutely
That Dr in nnewi is one of the best peadetricians iv seen.I always take my kids to him when there unwell when am in the village. He also saved one of my sons.I thank God for the man.
What is his name or social media handle?
This inclusion is very important, my friend has a twin who is autistic, I admire the way she includes him in all activities,it has helped him tremendously. Your mum is a great warrior.
So emotional…but I believe that one day he’ll be free from autism cos he’s someone’s husband and father. God bless your mum
Oh God your mum really went through alot and her faith is so encouraging. God bless you sweet mummy
Your mum is a strong 💪woman. I shed tears when she said that she had to travel to Nnewi from Lagos to save her son. Please bring her back to your channel for motherhood stuff,marriage etc. Your mum is very outspoken and very intelligent. Adaeze, you have a great mum.
Dr Ulasi was the pediatrician for me and my three siblings. He would see you till you turned 16. May his soul Rest In Peace. He was the best. The med students that worked under him turned out great too. Dr. Ulasi was a visionary and truly cared for us and I still have fond memories of him. May his soul Rest In Peace. 😌
Dr Ulasi is still very much alive.
It's so sad that Nigeria's medical negligence and mistakes has affected a lot of people without them knowing it. I guess the baby was suffering from severe milk allergy that the doctors couldn't diagnose. All these could have been prevented if the doctors knew what they were doing. Who knew if it was the injection they gave him that caused damages that led to his autism diagnoses? May God help us all. Nigeria medical system is a jungle. So sad.
This worst part is over the years it's going from bad to worse
Oh myyy, this video got me very emotional. I don’t even want to comment on our horrible healthcare system that has been in a shambles from time immemorial☹️. Thank you Ma for sharing your story
Oh! Nigeria medical system I weep. They almost killed me during pregnancy, even told me my son didn’t have balls, as a first time mum thinking and fear were my everyday reality until I travelled out and they showed me how perfect my child was,that was when my peace came back. I genuinely pray that for those who decide to remain back in this nigeria will not be victims of our careless health system. Mummy Ada Godbless you for keeping your faith alive.
A louder Amen amen and amen
Kai… your mum is the real definition of a strong and super woman. God will continue to bless her abundantly ❤️
This is the real definition of “Not all super heroes wear capes” God bless you grandma you’re blessed ❤️
You see that’s why I work with special needs school…. Special needs children are special gifts…. Any time I go to work I thank GOD for my life….
MY WORD:Any responsibility you take up God will enable you.....
THANK YOU MA.
GOD BLESS YOU
God bless you mummy. Hv not watch video in a while now,but when grace sent me this video,l just had to watch.
Sometimes ,people dont understand,
They think you are not prayerful
Or you are not doing enough,or they will share millionsof prayer links with you,which make me really sad honestly. This day's l just have to concentrate on my son,the stress is real,but l belief God will come through for me,doing my best, and therapy
Mama di mama I smiled and cried watching this....the love of Christ is everlasting in your life mummy❤️❤️❤️
i came to america at the age of 8 i am now 34 living in Virginia, all my family are here. God bless my grandmother for bring us all here, we go to ghana sometimes but with the knowledge ive accqured here about children sometimes i was i can go around villages and small towns in ghana to help mothers on certain things about children and not blame everything on witchcraft. at time i dont blame them so much with that mind set about certain behavior because thats how they were raise. for example growing up i never saw a special need child i didnt even think such children existed in ghana because they were hidden. for example after giving birth some women go thru post partum but in the small towns and villages help is not there. Mama God bless you for sharing your story. Ive learn alot growin up being a wife and a mother to 3 kids and i always PRAISE our MOTHERS AROUND THE WORLD
No wonder Ada is the way she is, having a mother like this is everything. May God continue to keep and strengthen her 🙏
Hmmm Ada I cried watching this,imagine mum that just put to bed and going through all this, mummy GOD ALMIGHTY bless you, I have been through a lot but I thank GOD ALMIGHTY, Nigeria health sector has failed so many, I just thank GOD ALMIGHTY for the opportunity of America health sector
Mama has a lion heart 💖. God bless you and your family for sharing. Unfortunately the situation in Nigeria has not changed much for children with disabilities and autism. How do we change this narrative?
How come I am just seeing this video 😮😮😮. Wow! Pregnancy dealt with me, mummy is blinding the screen. She's so beautiful. This is a value added video
Oh my goidness! Your motther is special!
Really special!
Medical negligence, ignorance and pride on the part of doctors (in acknowledging their limitations within their scope) in Nigeria is a huge prroblem..
So heart broken for your story!
That woman who acussed Ada?
I suffered similar, God will take care of her!
Blessings!
Thank you , Ij
Your mom is such a pleasant woman, her faith in God is outstanding. Thank you for sharing your brother's story with us, it is very enlightening.
I got so captivated by this video for so many reasons. Mama at this age is a born again who understands speaking the scriptures over every circumstance, chai! May God preserve your salvation. Another reason is mentioning one of my lecturers in medical school, Dr Ulasi; and of course the renowned cardiothoracic surgeon of UNTH, Dr Ahaji. Finally ASD; I can completely relate bcos I have kids with similar diagnosis. Mine is a bit different bcos both achieved walking earlier than their mates, but the abnormal behaviours and speech gave the alert. Indeed they are so pretty. In my number of years in the medical school, I heard ASD but never saw a case. I love the part mama said speak the scriptures over them, this I do without ceasing. Indeed Elroi never sleeps nor slumbers.
Mum youre amazing! Got me so emotional just watching you talk about everything you went through with a smile on your face. God bless you ma
Omelu onye k'obi ya di! God is awesome! Hole in the heart closed, cataract stopped. God is good🙌🏼.
How did he get to school? IT WAS GOD!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
If it were me, I will name and shame that school. I'm so angry I want to cry! Imagine the pain and trauma they put your family through.
Yes, I can tell Ada was even more beautiful as a young girl. I noticed through her traditional wedding pictures.
Wow! Some tribes will send a woman away from her matrimonial home if she had a special child??? Chai!!
Adaeze, you and your Mum are amazing. Great interview. Good job and great information divulged. God bless 🙏🏼
Wao Ada,thank you so much for this session with mummy,she spoke to me ,as a supermom myself I know what it means to go through these challenges,My love to mummy,she's indeed a supermom.
So Emotional, I still felt like slapping the school teacher as Mummy was saying it. God bless you mum much love 😘😘
Admire mummy so much. She is beautiful in and out. This is what true womanhood looks like. More so, her message is helpful for anyone going through any kind of life challenge. Thank you so much ma.
Wow so emotional, God bless you mommy, mommy said she went to the hospital and the next day it disappeared. That is God showing himself and reminding you that I see you. God has given you the strength and will continue to give you the strength. So sad there is no one or board in Nigeria to hold accountable for the negligence of the hospitals.
I had twin boys 10 years ago. Twin B was born with down symptom and also on the autism spectrum and that’s how God reminded me He is with me. It has been God all the way. He is meeting his milestone slowly but surely.
Adaeze well done sis 🙌😍🥰💕 you are a great big sister. I know how awesome my older daughter and his twin brother care and love him.
They do enjoy the pet names a lot 🤣for that reason I hardly call him by his name.
Mum's wisdom is beyond, im inspired by her faith in God also. Thank you ma, your experience will bless many 🙏🏽
Mehn your mum is an inspiration. Kai.
A gem!!!
God bless your mum tremendously, such an amazing and strong woman, I also love how she holds on to God, gives me the strength to hold on to God and his word.. ❤️❤️
Mum you are such an amazing person to listen to. Thanks for sharing. You just provoked something in me.
To God be the glory. You're truly a mum. I can't imagine what you passed to only to have your boy with you. Adaeze I've seen where you got your strength from. Jisike
Your mum is really a super mum with beautiful soul, the part i love so much is where she said she never hide him. God really gave her strength because is not easy.
Awwwww Ada you lived in Festac?
So sorry about everything you all went through. May GOD guide and protect us all, May GOD continue to strengthen your Mum and the whole family in JESUS Name Amen.
So emotional... Wow!! What kind of strength is this!!!!! See the joy in her eyes. See God!!!
Wow! What an amazing woman! It's encouraging to know that there are African women like you, Ma. God bless you! The love you showed him kept him alive from the get-go and nurtured him into adulthood.
