Dr. Charles Lule was in my same PCB Class in HSC. He made it to Medical school while I couldn't, one of those missed opportunities I reminisce about my life, but that's another story.

Dr. Charles, together with one Prof. Ocama, were brilliant classmates in my class.

I knew they would go far in their medical careers, and I was right.

Nevertheless, we went on with our lives, and for 36 years, I did not know what happened to them until this week.

In the week, Dr @rkalyes1 reported that Prof. Ocama was elected President Elect of the Association of Africa and Middle East Association of Gastroenterology AMAGE in Cairo. I was like Woah! I knew it!

But in a sudden twist, the week also gave me sad knews of Dr. Charles Lule. In a GoFundMe page forwarded to me, I saw a name, and a face that got me thinking; I KNOW THIS GUY!

Wasn't this guy my Classmate? Wasn't this guy a Doctor?

So I read on. And this -below, was what was posted.

"Hello, friends, family, and kind strangers,

We are reaching out to share the story of Charles Lule, who has been bravely battling Parkinson's Disease (PD) for the past four years. As a devoted father to two adult daughters—one of whom is still in college—Charles has always been a pillar of strength and support for our family.

Before his diagnosis, Charles dedicated over 25 years of his career to providing healthcare for others, as a physician scientist, with 15 years of those in intra-operative neuro-monitoring. His passion for helping others and advancing medical science was evident in every aspect of his work.

Even after his diagnosis, he continued to work for two years, pushing through the challenges that PD presented, until the disease became too aggressive to manage.

Today, Parkinson's has significantly affected his motor function. He struggles to walk independently due to severe weakness in both his upper and lower limbs, with the right side of his body experiencing debilitating tremors.

Additionally, he now faces extended periods of severe muscle spasms and deep neuro pain, which greatly impact his quality of life.

He has developed significant tolerance to the medications and experiences long repeated off periods, during which his symptoms are intense.

Our Current Situation:

To ensure Charles receives the care he needs, we have hired assistance to help him with activities of daily living (ADLs), manage his pain, and ensure he takes his medications on time.

However, the costs associated with his care are mounting, and it has become increasingly difficult for our family to manage." - End.

Well, I have never done this before, but I am asking you to put Dr. Charles Lule in your prayers, and share the gofund me page among wellwishers.

If you can place a donation, I am sure the organizers will appreciate your help.

Dr. Charles Lule dedicated his life to service, to provide health to others. In his hour of need, I know you can support him too.

Just publicizing this (retweets, sharing) shall be a great honor.

WE ARE DOING A GOOD THING

How can Ruto, the son of a nobody, which rendered him a nobody, work hard to become a somebody and now having reached the zenith of everybody’s dream, not give a damn about anybody?

Mr Ruto, a certain kind of man who likes certain kinds of things, is now a big boy; he was not invited to the table by the “dynasties” – the Odingas and Kenyattas and Mois – so he “made” enough money to buy a seat, but even then, it feels fake, like that office employee who joins your table at lunch and suddenly everybody hana stori. Not that that bothers Ruto. If you listen to what he is not saying, he seems to say, I don’t care what you think of me; I don’t think about you at all. But the subtext – and often the text – is that he, himself, is not a particularly trustworthy person.

Except Ruto’s presidency looks less like a dynasty than a castle built on sand. He appears a man more imprisoned by past glory than inspired by it; the substance of his hustler revolution has quickly gained defectors.

When his dream came true, he adopted the look of an ideologically conscious intelligent man who went to prison and had a reverse Damascene conversion, turning from Paul to Saul. His hustlers became his hustle. Because it is on the back of the nobodies that Ruto became a somebody.

The story, is, of course, writ trite and banal: the pauper who became a president, the hustler who won against the house, the chicken seller who became cock of the walk. He was born without a silver spoon in his mouth, in that part of Kenya where people put a silver tooth, a mwananchi who became a mwenyenchi, a testimony to hustlers worldwide that even if you don’t make it into the bourgeois, you can, at the very least make it out of the ghetto. After all, he made a name with nothing to his name.

So, to make his doctrine easier to swallow, Ruto bedded the church, castrating it, a rocky marriage in which the only sensible solution is a nice murder-suicide.

Critics should be transparent about their biases, so let me confess to one: I am sceptical about those people who know so well what God wants them to do because I notice it always coincides with their desires.
