A little sick, you decide to go to the nearest hospital to get an Enema. A simple procedure. You call your mom and tell her you will call her when you are done. Perhaps you even tell her you are excited to have dinner with her that night.
During your drive to the hospital, you pause to reflect on the past 7 years, the stressful, tiring, agonizing 7 years you've spent in medical school. But you've just graduated exactly 32 days ago. You made it. You survived medical school. Now you are a doctor filled with hope to help others.
You think of how your mom was excited when you graduated. That makes you feel energized, and you even forget you are sick for a moment. 'I am a doctor. I am a doctor,' you repeat the words in awe.
You arrive at the hospital feeling better than you did earlier.
But then that’s it. That’s all you remember.
You are now lying lifeless in your mother's hands. She cries out your name in pain. She is grieving the loss of a daughter. Your body is bruised.
You’re dead. Your hopes and dreams are gone.
Tragic isn’t it?
This is the TRUE STORY of Doctor Hiwot.
5 years ago, Dr Hiwot, 24, went into a hospital for a simple procedure. After a few hours, her lifeless naked body wrapped in nothing but a sheet was given to her mother.
In her body autopsy, internal bleeding could be seen in her head. There was also bruising throughout her body which showed signs of sexual assault.
Yet, no one has been held accountable for her death. Justice has not been served.
Let's tell her story, speak of her pain, and make those responsible accountable for their actions. Maybe lessen her mother’s pain just a little.
Share her story.
